I've noticed links to ifood.tv popping up here and there. In most cases, by spot checking, I found the links added by IP users mapping to India. (Look for 122. IPs). I'm not entirely convinced that this is spam ... well ... it's spam, but it's borderline useful content as opposed to merely being a link aggregator or trying to push a commercial product. Maybe I'll be more dogmatic tomorrow, but I thought I would post it here first to see if anyone has a strong opinion one way or the other on removing the links. --B 02:33, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dirk - did this get monitored? There doesn't seem to be a COIBot report, but a link was added on October 24 2007 ([1]). -- SiobhanHansa 16:18, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Curious, the bot missed that one. Maybe the bot was down at the moment...

famousamericans.net, Act II - Scene 3

These are all domains related to famousamericans.net, adding them here so they get monitored by lwcoibot. There have been ongoing issues concerning verbatim copying of data from this source, and the addition of links to many articles. (original report is here.

Another Related Domain - selling books as well..
In addition, it has been confirmed by CheckUser, that the three named accounts (Cedarkey1, Pputter, Damslerset) on the WP:AN thread above, as well as a fourth account Solknats (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) are related. If you look at Special:Contributions/Solknats he clearly identifies himself by first & last name, although the last name has been removed from the current version of his userpage. --Versageek 21:33, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I tested, all websites share the same IP: Special:Linksearch/66.45.34.101.

megadry.com

I have spotted some spamming activity on behalf of megadry.com where user Whynotthestars has been adding links to this site, as has Hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis has also removed a link to a non profit organisation that works in the same field.

The following IP address also seems to be involved:
--Matt Beard (talk) 11:06, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
User Whynotthestars is still acting in a way that I believe is unhelpful. On 19:21, 4 December 2007 he returned to the Sleep_hyperhidrosis page and again removed a link to a non-profit organisation that is dedicated to this field. I think this may be a case of trying to reduce exposure of alternative sites to the one that he has been spamming. He earlier replaced the link to this non-profit with a spam-link to megadry and this action was regarded by Voyagerfan5761 as vandalism.

Registered Charity No. 207711--Hu12 (talk) 16:43, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I consider these links acceptable links to informative pages on the web site of a major non-profit, s an uninvolveded ed. who sometimes works on medical articles, I will reinsert them if they are removed. A good modest job of providing information appropriately to the encyclopedia. The user block is about to expire, so there is no point in contesting it. I consider it very ill-advised. DGG (talk) 06:17, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • cough*, did you note the IP registered to ARC... or the user "Arcinfo" spamming arc.org.uk, LOL..--Hu12 (talk) 09:55, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Some points:

  • The IP account has a clear conflict of interest, the IP is registered to ARC
  • The name ArcInfo suggest also a conflict of interest, and arcinfo is active/created just shortly after the IP, suggesting that the IP-user created that account (no proof here).
  • These 2 accounts perform link-additions only.
  • The use of {{cite web}} does suggest that the editors have worked more on wikipedia, or are very fast learners.
  • There are only two links to this domain not added by these accounts, one on the page of the organisation, one added by another IP account outside of the range (interestingly, not too far away from 213.83.109.90; IP 213.42.21.156, diff, adding the same text as 213.83.109.90 and arcinfo). If the link is really that useful, then more uninvolved editors would have used it.
  • The accounts do not discuss when pointed that way, a block to remind them that their unilateral additions are considered spamming here, and to promote discussion seems appropriate, I would suggest 24/31 hours.
  • Adding a discussion to the talkpages with a reason why the links might be useful to add to the page takes just as much time as adding the link to the page yourself.
  • Or, if the links are really useful, then I would suggest that these accounts contact an appropriate wikiproject, and when the wikiproject endorses their edits, then they can add the link.
  • The account can be blocked because of the username.

You are of course free to re-insert them, if you really think they are useful, though they might serve better as a reference (that seems to have been the faith of the external link 213.42.21.156 has added as well), and there are on some of the pages already quite some external links (e.g. Osteoarthritis now contains 13, which is arguably more than 'a few'). Hope this explains our efforts here. --Dirk Beetstra T C 11:26, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just to say that I agree completely with all that Dirk has said here. This is excessive placement of external links by someone who has a "conflict of interest". I would certainly have no problem with the indefinitely blocking of the user name under the circumstances --Herby talk thyme 11:34, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just as an extra note, we are dealing with a 'campaign' site here, not with an independent site aimed for providing information. Although the site might provide good, reliable information, it should be taken into account that campaign sites may have a promotional agenda. --Dirk Beetstra T C 11:41, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Phishing site on Gaia Online

Posting this here to have a permanent record of watching the links:

One of the pages on this site, h1.ripway.com/gaiaoline/Login.html contains a phishing site which has been added a couple of times to Gaia Online (to catch the login process).

I am a little confused here, as i can not see any substantial number of articles the accounts listed have tried to spam. DGG (talk) 06:27, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I see that the edits of the two IP accounts are often to External links sections, Jobance's and Jennyzhang's edits only concern external links. I would define mainly editing to insert external links 'pushing your links', which translates on wikipedia into 'spamming'. Hope this explains. --Dirk Beetstra T C 11:35, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Juicy spam

Hi, all. If this isn't the right place for this... I'd be happy to take it where it belongs. I have been removing some spam (and leaving some spam that I wasn't sure about) from the external links section of Juicer. Now I have a user with one edit asking me why I deleted his links and left other spammy links in there (on my talk page). Could someone please check out the external links section of Juicer and give me an honest take on the links there? I'm not sure which (if any) are salvageable. If you go through the history, you should see pretty quick what has been going on. Thanks. -- Swerdnaneb 22:02, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the links and left a note at the talk page of the IP-address. /SvNH 06:47, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

6 accounts, 9 spamlink additions. There's something very fishy about this, but any attempt at an investigation comes to a dead end, which makes me think there's more spam out there. See also Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/Claudia Spatar. MER-C 11:54, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Potential Investigative Tools

User A. B. has suggested I repeat an offer I made to him here, so I am reposting my original message:

With ref to your AN post, I have no idea if it will help but I have two possibly relevant tools I can offer.
One - wpW5 - will search article history and tell you when a piece of text (ie. a link) was added and who added it. It takes about 30 seconds in "quick" mode.
The other - lkScan - will search a user's entire contribs and compile every web link they've added to any article and put them into a sortable format.
Maybe these could help you figure out the whole scope of the problem? Let me know if you think they could help. Franamax (talk) 02:49, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The tools are described a little more fully on my user page. Franamax (talk) 02:40, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Russian Sean Connery fansite

The stills on this site are copyright violations, right? Here's an example URL, an IP has been adding links to multiple articles:

  • http://sean-connery.narod.ru/foto28-15.html

Rondee Website

A new user Deanvesuvio (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · blacklist hits · AbuseLog · what links to user page · count · COIBot · Spamcheck · user page logs · x-wiki · status · Edit filter search · Google · StopForumSpam) has created an article Rondee which appears to be simply an advertisement for a long distance service. I placed a db-spam notice on top which he has removed 3 times, ignoring warnings. He also has two warnings on link spamming other articles with links to the website associated with this company.

Admin assistance here would be appreciated. Calltech (talk) 23:09, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User Deanvesuvio now has vandalized my user page, talk page and article Conference calls with an obsene graphic. Recommend blocking user as well. Calltech (talk) 23:26, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Article speedied per WP:CSD#G11., user already blocked. Added link search above so COIbot can monitor.--Hu12 (talk) 23:30, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WhereIstand.com

  • Seeing this link pop up on a number of politician webpages like Eliot Spitzer and Libertarian Party (United States)‎. Anyone have any thoughts? I've not heard of it, but from a quick look I don't know if I would consider it to be a reliable source. Any convention on links for politician pages?Montco (talk) 01:41, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
