    Adult FriendFinder

    Having an issue at the article Adult FriendFinder (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    The URL to AdultFriendFinder.com was changed to a redirect site; unfortunately, it cannot be changed back because AdultFriendFinder.com is on the blacklist. Any suggestions on fixing this?

    At the same time, it appears that several new redirect sites have been exposed by the persons that changed the URL. I haven't had a chance yet to report these as Meta, and won't be able to until later today when I can better investigate the linkspam issues. If someone else wants to address them today, feel free.

    • This one failed to redirect, but appears to be a redirect site: aff.url-go.com
    • This one was attempted, but not setup correctly, so not sure if it's already blacklisted or not: aff11.ne1.net
    • This one is currently in the article, and does redirect to the site: selena-spice.com/go/aff/

    Any suggestions on a valid URL to add to the whitelist so this can be resolved? --- Barek (talkcontribs) - 16:36, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

    Mainly by a recurring user in various articles about water softening, clearly out to promote their products. Ip had a few last warnings on their talk page. To no avail. Made some nasty attempt at "retaliation" on my talk page. Currently no articles linked to spamsite. Can it be blacklsited? - DVdm (talk) 15:25, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
