 * this type of spam is really annoying, very pointless, and even harder to auto-block. many of the ips seem to be some sort of shared ISP ip, or common proxy of some sort, as many of them have legit (sorta) edits on other wikis also. something like a school/college where multple people with different intent. keep nuking and blocking i guess, we'll try to find some common pattern we can block incoming. keep up the fight! --Uberfuzzy 05:31, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

I did some shopping.

All pages with no content started out as spam or likewise but have since been blanked. -- 07:23, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
 * no idea what that blacklist page is supposed to be... or do.... but took care of a bunch of the spam where it was left, added a bunch of new things to the filters based on the spam --Uberfuzzy 05:22, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Needs deleted, no actual url though. -- 12:43, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

I deleted the two spams on the Vim wiki where we have had 27 of these pages in the last 6 days. My guess is that someone is playing with a spam machine. Each of the 27 pages had a title that is exactly 8 random letters.

If anyone wants to check for damage to other wikis, the 19 IPs used were: --JohnBeckett 23:45, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
