[edit] Go ahead, make my day

Hi.

All your spam has kept us really, really busy -- it's taken dozens of volunteer manhours to clean it up.

Well for now, I think we're just about cleaned up.

We went ahead and blacklisted the domains we could find; see this big addition to MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist‎. That means anyone trying to add one of these links to any page on the English language Wikipedia will be unable to do so due to software filters.

I'm asking you nicely to immediately remove the rest of your links that we haven't found as well as not to add any more links to this Wikipedia or any other of the Wikimedia Foundation's 700+ wikis around the world.

Otherwise, we'll take all these domains to Wikimedia's global spam blacklist. That means:

  1. You won't be able to add your links to any Wikimedia Foundation wiki
  2. You won't be able to add your links to any of the hundreds of Wikia wikis.
  3. You won't be able to add your links to thousands of unrelated wikis that run on the same MediaWiki software we use and elect to use our blacklist as part of their own spam filtering.

Then of course, there are those recurring rumours in the blackhat SEO world that Google and other search engines consult our list when deciding whether to penalize search engine spammers.

Who knows if those rumours are true? Beats me -- you've just got to ask yourself that one question: "Do I feel lucky?".

So go ahead, make my day.
