Spammer Ahoy!
Hello. I would like to report a spammer on the Pokemon Wiki. Two IP addresses have been vandalizing the Wiki and posting things like this and this there. The addresses are 82.4.223.106‎ and 75.69.100.253‎. Please block them before they cause any more trouble. Werty yertrew 02:38, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Just to let you know:. I can't blank or put the delete template because there's a spam filter preventing users from editing this page --Ciencia Al Poder (talk) -WikiDex 19:16, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
 * taken care of. its actually not from the spam list, its from the bad pagename list at MediaWiki:Blacklist title list, theres an entry to stop pages from being created (and updated) that end in a /. there are many many spam bots that try to create these types of pages, so it was necessary to block them. --Uberfuzzy 19:25, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Embedded link spam on Vim Tips wiki
Recently 121.97.74.130 made this edit:

http://vim.wikia.com/index.php?title=A_better_interfacing_of_%28La%29TeX_with_the_quickfix_mode&diff=23155&oldid=19775

It looks innocent enough, except that the page on our wiki is about LaTeX, a "document markup language and document preparation system for the TeX typesetting" [1], not about latex, the material used in medical gloves and condoms.

I have rolled back the edit, but I'm reporting it in case this IP hits other wikis as well.

Using on other wikis
Hi,

When you use Mediawiki's spam blacklist, you use

http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spam_blacklist&action=raw&sb_ver=1

in LocalSettings. But I can't figure out how to use Wikia's list. Anyone have the solution here? I know it might be a little load on your server, but there needs to be something that is central. Wikimedia's list does not block a lot of recent spam. Purple Scissor 23:54, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
