"warritimes.wordpress.com" and everything else that includes "warritimes" is globally blacklisted because of endless spamming and socking (see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Vwegba4real), but they have now started to use a new URL to the same blog: "warrinewspaper.wordpress.com". - Tom | Thomas.W talk 19:20, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
I reverted an addition of trivia which had its ref as a link to metal-archives.com which is user-generated content and there are numerous copyright violations. The lyrics of many artists are being published by the users. This can be seen by following the link that I reverted or any of the ref links left by 87.207.50.197. I stopped counting at 2100 links for that site and would need help to assess the number of cross-wiki links. I have a feeling that this would crash a standard link report. Also, lyrics.wikia.com was being added by the IP and it also looks like the same kind of copyvios as the other link. Many of the album cover images are also being sourced to these sites. There are 313 links to lyrics.wikia.com here at the English Wikipedia. I believe that the copyvios make these links good candidates for blacklisting.

Despite not being spam sites I agree that it makes sense to add both sites to the blacklist and I wouldn't complain if they were removed both as references and ELs. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:39, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

I noticed while trying to edit the InfoWars page that it was on the Blacklist and couldn't understand why the website had been added to spam. Its not redirecting, using url shortner, doing any suspicious activity, serving ads or opening pop-ups once you go to the website. The bot report also seemed unalarming. The reported vandal in proposed additions section above seems to have used it for citation. Not sure if mistakes of some user can be attributed to the website. The website itself has very reliable content, sources, and other information. While the information about the website is available on the page in form of the domain name, adding the link to spam seems like an error. Could this be corrected so that it can be linked to the corresponding page(s) please? Thanks. Thesourwarhead (talk) 20:38, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

Both of these have been the subject of recent spamming by the same operator. Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Rabinrahim has the record. Rabinrahim spammed dgzmedia.com to a bunch of articles. When approached to please stop, he just blanked his page. I indeffed him after he continued. Then, he created account Richardkb to spam mostly kollybuzz.com, but with some dgzmedia.com mixed in. The accounts have been blocked, but it seems that the chief way to dissuade this guy from doing this is to blacklist the sites. Neither of these sources are sufficient as WP:RS.

Spamming by user Ar33j33, who is also a blogger on that site under the alias Areej. No reason anyone should be adding this link to Wikipedia. Domain seems to be created recently, on 12 November 2018. theinstantmatrix (talk) 21:02, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
IP first added this link, and when it was reverted, registered an account and continued spamming from there. No reason for this site to be linked here, as it's nothing but a scam site. theinstantmatrix (talk) 21:57, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

The German Wikipedia article on de:Andrew C. Berry has an external link to the Wayback Machine (web.archive.org): https://web.archive.org/web/20060329112827/http://www.MOF.com/AndrewBerry.htm ; replace MOF with the domain in question. It appears that this domain, which is now defunct, was added to the spam blacklist on the English Wikipedia in June 2011 by User:Shirik, as “malicious site spam”. From what I can tell, the problem with the website that it was full of ads, possibly some of them malicious. Now that the site is defunct, it should be no longer a problem to link to the web.archive.org copies of pages on the site. So removing it from the blacklist should be fine, as it's unlikely to come back to life and start getting spammed again. (Discussed below.) Shreevatsa (talk) 07:42, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Hello, pricekart.com is product research and comparison website which provides users with product information. Pricekart website doesn't sell any products, it only provides information about various products to users. It compares prices available on top online stores and provides detailed specifications and reviews of products. I found that pricekart.com is blacklisted on Wiki. On searching more about it, I found that 2 accounts were posting some links from this domain and other domains too. This website is now blacklisted on Wikipedia. I request you to please remove it from wiki blacklist as it is an information website which helps users to make a better buying decision. The reason for request of removal is not because I want to add random links and violate Wiki laws. But, because I found few articles on Wikipedia with insufficient information and pricekart.com being an information and product research site, can add value to wiki pages.— Preceding unsigned comment added by JeshmiDudhat (talk • contribs) 11:27, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
Spam that is (coi?) spammed, related to pricekart.com. Unsuitable as source, nor as external link. --Dirk Beetstra T C 10:41, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

Hi, The Anti Blog is a source of information for conspiracy theories. I was trying to cite this earlier, and discovered that it was blacklisted, but could not figure out the reasoning behind it. I checked the log and couldn't find it. I feel like this site can be useful because it provides unbiased views on conspiracy theories, and it seeks to inform. When I was reading the conspiracy theory page on Wikipedia, I discovered that much of the information was biased or not reporting information that is entirely accurate to the theories listed. I do not believe blacklisting the site is necessary because it is not spam. I would really like to use this website and the pages on it to cite pertinent information.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.222.173.126 (talk • contribs)
