    Teijin (and other chemical companies)

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to do this. If not, can someone please move it to an appropriate location?

    It appears that the Teijin corporation is engaging in astroturfing and creating advertisement pages for each of their products. I've already marked some of the pages with advert tags, and one particularly egregious with db-spam. The pages vary in the degree to which they are written like advertisements, ranging from, e.g., Teijinconex to, especially, Sulfron (which I've marked with a db-spam template), which appears to be pure spam and has many edits from 62.132.206.2 (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • blacklist hits • AbuseLog • what links to user page • COIBot • Spamcheck • count • block log • x-wiki • Edit filter search • WHOIS • RDNS • tracert • robtex.com • StopForumSpam • Google • AboutUs • Project HoneyPot), an IP in the company's netblock. That IP also has at least one edit on Technora, which at least doesn't seem to be quite as bad as the rest.

    Additionally, while I was browsing around polymer pages, I came across another spammy site, Innegra S, which doesn't appear to be associated with Teijin, but does appear to be mainly edited by one user, HerbNeelyII (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). He created the article, and is entire edit history (with one exception) consists of editing that article and adding links to it from other articles.

    Westword.com

    This was reported to AIV. First user has been blocked. 586+ articles still link to the site, mostly to the blog space, and this blocked user only contributed 50 or so so there must be others. Seems like a massive spam situation to me, but wanted to post here for opinions before I blacklist the site.

    I should also highlight that the user above has a twitter page indicating they are affiliated with the company.  7  06:01, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Nothing useful from COIBot, sorry. I suggest you take a random sample of (say) 10 links and use Wikiblame to find out who added them and take it from there. MER-C 07:44, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for checking. As part of the broader picture, can you tell me if you agree that these 580+ links to this site look spammy... To me almost all are pure ELNO, and a few look like refspam. Also, any benefit to checking an adsense publisher number to see if there are other sites?  7  07:57, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    There's no adsense on that page. There is a Google Analytics UA-395255 and we have an article on this site: Westword. This leads to a list of related domains at [65], which I won't reproduce here.
    Since these sites belong to a notable publisher, I can't really tell whether they were spammed without usage data. I can imagine that a significant portion were added in good faith (e.g. [66]). I don't think you'll be able to get these on the blacklist with only one spammer. MER-C 08:20, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Understood - thanks.  7  08:31, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
