ifood.tv

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)

Let's monitor how it gets used. --Dirk Beetstra 13:00, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
Dirk - did this get monitored? There doesn't seem to be a COIBot report, but a link was added on October 24 2007 (). -- SiobhanHansa 16:18, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
Curious, the bot missed that one. Maybe the bot was down at the moment...
Let's try again. --Dirk Beetstra 17:14, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

I'd appreciate some input on this. There is an appeal to remove this site from the blacklist on Meta. The request (if there was one) was never logged nor is there anything in the archives. Any information from here would be useful.

Failing which I see little choice than to remove it from the blacklist personally. Should it then be bot monitored for a while? Thanks --Herby 11:56, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Domain comes up 404. the site is dead. I could not find anything either, but in light of its status, no one should be adding it any ways.--Hu12 (talk) 12:06, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
Oops, my bad, you will get it now (interestingly seven sites are asking for scripting access too!) --Herby 12:11, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

pwinsider.com comes up:

--Hu12 (talk) 12:17, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

This site may have been blacklisted after a massive Joe job (using many sockpuppets and proxy servers) by Jonathan Barber. COIBot does not have any records on the link, but the bot will be monitoring for some time. As there are no active records on the spamming, I'd approve removal from the blacklist. If something comes up, we can always blacklist again, then with proper reason/log. --Dirk Beetstra 13:35, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
Just to update this - as there was no logging of the request I cannot justify the site remain on the blacklist. I've removed it so we will see what happens --Herby 12:40, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

— Linkwatcher search

Any word when this will be back up and running?--Hu12 (talk) 16:35, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

I have planned a rewrite of COIBot so that it searches the results of the linkwatchers that I am running, which should give more extended results. The bots (watching 722 wikis) do use a lot of processor time on the MySQL deamons (still handleable by the computer I am running the watchers on). I will discuss further with the others involved (User:Shadow1 and User:Versageek). --Dirk Beetstra 10:26, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
Apreciate the response, it is a valuable tool. Would hate to have gone forever. thanks--Hu12 (talk) 12:07, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
I have now rewritten COIBot so it can also source the linkwatchers databases for the linkwatchers I am running (from now on we will be running them as continuously as possible). The LinkReports it generates include now searches for that (so it looks backwards as well now).
If you need a specific report for a link, poke me, and I will command the bot to generate a report ASAP. --Dirk Beetstra 11:51, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure if the two Sikh sites related to each other or if they are associated with the other set of sites. All three sets of domains have been spammed:
This move of cyrena.com and dhangurunanak.com within an article's link list may be what caused the confusion; I think the editor was trying to increase the prominence of sikhzone.net by moving links higher on the list to the bottom.

I think this was spammed as a means of advertising a web hosting service which was listed in the 'classifieds'.

Time for blacklisting blogspot.com, with whitelisting of specific domains?

The rule \bblogspot\.com is (currently) not on COIBot's monitorlist. Some of the sub-domains have been added via WT:WPSPAM, or have been caught by the automonitoring of COIBot (mainly because the name of the editor is the same as the name of the subdomain on blogspot.com).

Still, a linksearch on the resolved IP of blogspot.com (72.14.207.191) results in a mere 118 results (all COIBot linkreports)! Often the multiple use of the single subdomains is not a cause for blacklisting, as they may only have been used once or twice. Also, I suspect there are tens of thousands of blogspot sub-domains out there, but these are only the links that are caught because the wiki username overlaps with the domainname of the subdomain (or have been reported here). Would this cumulative behaviour warrant blacklisting of \bblogspot\.com .. here, or even on meta? --Dirk Beetstra 12:37, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

Linkfarms!

Here is a list of link farms as of mid November or so. There are over 2,000 articles with link farms. I'm considering anything with an external links section with more then 20 links in that section a link farm. Its a large list, and if folks wish to put the list on multiple pages (perhaps in groups of 500 or so) feel free. The entries link first to the current page, as it is now, and in ()'s there is a link to the revision as the program saw it. The worst cases are at the bottom.

Follows is a few samples from the list, that I think have been dealt with already. (the worst cases)

  1. Holocaust_(resources) (Holocaust_(resources)) external links: 153
  2. Internet_censorship_in_Pakistan (Internet_censorship_in_Pakistan) external links: 177
  3. Baltimore_Comic-Con (Baltimore_Comic-Con) external links: 210
  4. Islamic_view_of_Moses (Islamic_view_of_Moses) external links: 678

Its quite sad, and does need fixing, however I don't have the time, but if you guys want to give it a shot and mark off the ones that are done, I'll generate this list again in a month or so using newer data. —— Eagle101 02:10, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

It does tend to strengthen the idea of blacklisting blogspot maybe --Herby 13:06, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

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.

he was using old access dates (~2000, 2005, etc.. ), and putting them directly under the References heading. I reverted & gave him a welcomespam.
