    linkspam on Jetstream Express

    Hello, just noticed that Jetstream Express was graced with a strange link promoting hotel vouchers, left by an anonymous user. I removed the link.

    catlitterexpert.com

    Bunch o' fresh commits from luckycrew, cloaked as "adding data" / "adding ref". One older entry (2 weeks ago) from Rohanda1Parker, no edit summary, but the ref text implied it was from New York Times. Not sure if that was pasting or intentional cloaking. Or stolen content :) Anyhow, did an EL search, none came up, but wanted to report in case the domain comes up again. Not watching this page. tedder (talk) 04:08, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    This domain came up in a large checkuser-confirmed sockfarm. MER-C 04:12, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Blacklisted. MER-C 08:16, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Hospitals and clinics

    It's difficult for me to assess what should or shouldn't be in those articles but link spamming is obviously rampant there. Some instances are in <ref>...</ref> tags when not external links. —PaleoNeonate – 14:55, 1 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    The usual approach taken with lists like these is no article, no listing. I've had to indefinitely semi-protect some lists due to this kind of spamming, but these three aren't active enough to justify it. MER-C 02:20, 2 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    I was bold and cleaned up those lists for now. Thanks, —PaleoNeonate – 04:30, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Blocked for 2 years. Lots of spam on these ranges, reverted 100+ links so far. This is still a work in progress. SIGH. MER-C 10:15, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Spam hidden in citation cleanup - findatopdoc.com

    Chronological order, quoting edit summaries
    I've cleaned it up, but wanted editors to be aware that the ip's were hiding their REFSPAM in edits that also clean up references. Has anyone seen spamming like this before? The COIN discussion is tangentially related: International Association of Healthcare Professionals, a vanity "professional organization", runs findatopdoc.com. --Ronz (talk) 23:49, 9 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    I recall filing a SPI on this behavior that found hundreds of socks, but I cannot remember the exact name. It's not new. If you see this domain again, let me know and I will blacklist it. MER-C 06:00, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks. --Ronz (talk) 15:39, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Effective lawmakers

    Users Zoelunn (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) and James7green7 (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) both have widespread edits promoting a single lawmaker rating website. Neither has responded to talkpage comments/warnings. (All of the actual spam has been reverted.) --JBL (talk) 11:58, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    There's currently no overlap in their edits, but they do look like sockpuppets. I'd treat them individually for now, and request the individual account be blocked if there is any further spamming from either. --Ronz (talk) 15:49, 10 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
