Yesterday, I reverted this link on [[Woodworking]]. The link just redirected to our article [[Glossary of woodworking]]. I checked it again after I reverted it a second time, and then it redirected to rogerthompsy.hubpages.com. Today, I reverted it on [[Fiverr]] redirecting to www.fiverr.com/arc_development/hd-video-review-testimonial-about-anything. I don't know of a way to verify the past redirects, but due to the nature of this, I thought that I needed to at least record it somewhere.

    General notice - matthewwoodward.co.uk SEO suggestions

    Someone just discovered this SEO page and mentioned it at WP:AN; I thought people here would benefit from seeing it. No need to blacklist the URL itself. Nyttend (talk) 17:11, 4 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

    I think this deserves more appearance here :) — Revi 16:23, 12 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

    www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxL3xov936s

    (The YouTube link didn't work right with the link summary template, so I have omitted it) Is it possible to add a specific YouTube video to the list? At KaBlam!, a number of users have added this recently, which essentially constitutes a copyright violation, not specifically spam.[1][2][3][4][5] Thanks. Would appreciate a ping if you reply—my watchlist is insane lately. Thanks! Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:01, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    This user created LearnDiscovery – mindmap of Wikipedia (software) directly without going via Articles for Creation (yes, I know, not required, but the article is pretty awful), and now seems to be putting external links to it into tangentially related articles.

    I'm not sure what to do about this, but I hope the people who read this will have a better idea. Pinkbeast (talk) 11:58, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    Gg4u (talk) 20:05, 9 April 2015 (UTC) Hi Pinkbeast, I created the article based on Discovr format. Respect to Discovr I also included external references and links to related wiki articles which are relevant to the topic. The topic is about a software for displaying mind-maps, also referred as concept-maps, atop of knowledge structure computed out of the wikipedia dump. I include references to mainly covering Force-directed layout implementation and UX concerning mind-maps and concept maps and external relevant links. Could you please give arguments for your opinion judging the article as "pretty awful" ? I will be glad to improve it. Thank you. I am replying you here, I am learning how to use the platform and talk board. Gg4u (talk)[reply]

    I made some edits to clean up the article. The tool is pretty cool.Timtempleton (talk) 16:17, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    This was reported in the past but a bunch of IPs are at it again, spamming classicistranieri.com into multiple articles.

    User:Jawwad khan marwat you are actually removing further reading sources, at least at [8]. I've now asked at Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics for someone to advise him. Dougweller (talk) 08:26, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

    Spammers

    So far, the IP is spamming Ambedkar Jayanti, Vaisakhi, and Ek Paheli Leela. As you can see, when warned, this person is just resetting their modem and continuing. Since playing whack-a-mole via WP:AIV seems like a waste of time, can this be blacklisted? Helpsome (talk) 21:11, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
