rationalwiki.org

RationalWiki is often used as a reference in Wikipedia articles despite wikis not being considered reliable sources under Wikipedia standards. RationalWiki was listed on the XLinkBot Revertlist, but this has not corrected the problem and people are still adding references to the site in articles. The people whom are adding RationalWiki to articles are likely members of RationalWiki. I do not hide the fact that I have ties to RationalWiki and one of its rival wikis, but I simply want what is best for Wikipedia, and I feel it is best for Wikipedia if this wiki is added to the blacklist as I can think of no legitimate reason for the site to be linked to from Wikipedia. If a need to link to it arises in the future, it can be removed. PCHS-NJROTC (Messages) 00:57, 22 November 2011 (UTC) reply

avoiceformen.com

Various Australian IPs have been adding this men's rights activist blog/website to articles. The targetted articles of this sneaky vandalism include BLP subjects. One of most concerning thing that often citations (to the BBC/ABC for example) are actually altered to link to an attack hosted on the voiceformen website rather than the original source. [1] [2] [3] [4] I semi-protected one article that was affected, but today I have noticed that other articles and other IP addresses have been involved, over a period of time, and depending who has been critiqued on the blog. I cannot see that this website could even be considered a reliable source, and the dangers considering some of this sneaky vandalism took almost a month to be noticed, suggest to me we should simply blacklist it.

Dinsdoc.com

I suggest adding "dinsdoc.com" to the blacklist.

The domain "Dinsdoc.com" apparently used to have online copies of old books, but has now become a spam link. Example, http://www.dinsdoc.com/niebuhr-1-30.htm

It seems any URL at that domain just leads to ads.

That was reported on ANI [9]. I removed the link from around 65 articles (most here) - it was just a convenience-link, so I was able to remove them without it impacting on verifiability.

As of now, the link is not used in article space [10]

An alternate solution is the User:XLinkBot revertlist. That's a bot that automatically removes links when they are added, but doesn't override editors who revert the bot.

I was trying to add the externals links on the Indian Holiday Pvt. Ltd. page when I found out the website URL was blacklisted. I've traced it back to March 2008, to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Spam-blacklist/log#March_2008 where no specific reason is given for the blacklisting. As a company profile page will warrant a link to the website as used in a standard profile page at Wikipedia, I reckon it's important enough to unblock the company website URL from the blacklist for the sake of the information. I have referred to other websites and company profile here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Travel_and_holiday_companies and almost every article provide external link to the company's official website. Thanks. Nikhilchandra81 ( talk) 06:34, 24 October 2011 (UTC) reply

The reason for blacklisting is this: See WikiProject Spam report. We are amenable to whitelisting the homepage or "about us" page. MER-C 05:51, 26 October 2011 (UTC) reply
Thank you very much for looking into my request. I suppose whitelisting the homepage will serve my purpose. If you do whitelist the homepage, could you please let me know when can I use it in the article? One more thing that I would like to ask is do I have to make a separate request here - whitelisting the homepage or "about us" page- or is it enough that I have requested it in this very section. Thanks again! Nikhilchandra81 ( talk) 04:53, 28 October 2011 (UTC) reply
Normally you would post a request on the whitelist page. However, since you already started out here, you can state either here or there which of those two pages you prefer to white-list. The admins here monitor both this blacklist talkpage as well as the whitelist talk page. ~ Amatulić ( talk) 20:41, 4 November 2011 (UTC) reply
Thanks Amatulic. For the use in the page which I am trying to create, I would request you (moderators) to please white-list the home page of the indianholiday.com Further, I'd like to give you the link of the page where I intend to use it here: Indian Holiday Pvt. Ltd.. This is the first draft and some addition as in content and references are yet to be done. I have submitted it for review and hopefully get some quality advice to proceed further. Thank you in advance Nikhilchandra81 ( talk) 12:53, 5 November 2011 (UTC) reply
Okay, I see a problem. The article is currently not in main article space. It's in your user space at User:Nikhilchandra81/Indian Holiday Pvt Ltd, and may not survive a deletion proposal if it gets moved into main space due to its promotional tone.
Second, we need a specific page to whitelist. What is the exact URL of the home page? We cannot whitelist www.indianholiday.com because that would whitelist the whole site. www.indianholiday.com/index.html may work although any random string appended onto the domain name appears to redirect to the home page.
Let's see how the article survives in main space. If it does, you may renew this request. ~ Amatulić ( talk) 00:15, 12 November 2011 (UTC) reply
Well considering your feedback regarding how the page will fare in the main space, I think I better take my time to improve it's quality. Do you think the references I have provided are adequate or do I need more. Further as advised I will make sure that the tone of the article is more encyclopedic than promotional. Also, I'll let you know when I will move it to main space. May be a day or two. If it does survives, I'd be glad if you'd whitelist the About Us page. Thaks again!

I was surprised to find our website blacklisted by Wikipedia Administrators presumably for a lack of notability. I was hoping to update the "Fusion RTOS" listing on the the List of real-time operating systems page when i first ran into the issue. Others have had similar experiences in the past (see Ghettoblaster's user page). After looking at the log entries for unicoi.com and dspos.com, I can see that the title in both instances is "Unicoi Systems, Inc. Spamming Wikipedia", and multiple deleted pages of Unicoi products are referenced. I am not sure why DUKG.org and simonvr.com were blacklisted by A. B. alongside dspos.com. (See this diff edit). As mentioned before, I am an employee of Unicoi and would be happy if our products could be listed on Wikipedia. Yet I understand Wikipedia is an Encyclopedia and not some advertising website. However, given that we are a reputable company with some notability, I do not see why our website or product pages should remain blacklisted. Consider that we were given an Excalibur Award from TAG in 2009. (In fact, TAG has given us a "Top 40 Innovative Technology Company" award each year from 2007 to 2011). We were also mentioned by Analog Devices in 2007 (See Converging on the Sweet Spot at the Wayback Machine (archived 2008-12-26)). We've also been featured on Bloter.net, a South Korean online media outlet specializing in information technology. If these citations are not enough, perhaps I can find more before you make the decision. Dtate888 ( talk) 00:52, 28 October 2011 (UTC) reply

One correction - it was blacklisted because the link was spammed to multiple articles. And regarding 'would be happy if our products could be listed on Wikipedia' - we are not an advertising service, see WP:SPAM. You may want to try to write articles (without the links first) in your userspace, and then see what others think about the subjects. I hope this explains. -- Dirk Beetstra T C 07:21, 28 October 2011 (UTC) reply
Hi Beetstra, thanks for the speedy response. I think I understand what you mean. It seems we were "removed" from List of operating systems#Unicoi Systems and other places, though not completely. Please consider that I was not personally affiliated with those "spamming attempts" and have come to this page in order to "go about this the right way". I have no intention of spamming/advertising, etc. and subsequently having my account blocked. Anyway, I have created a page: User:Dtate888/Unicoi_Systems. It's very short, but relatively neutral I believe. Please take a look and/or let me know how best to proceed. We may not have the same level of notability as some of our competitors, but I think that we do have some. If we were listed on Wikipedia with our own article, or at least were un-blacklisted and allowed to add references to our products like the Fusion RTOS, then that would certainly help our notability I guess..! :) I think it would help with our search engine rankings too, b/c Wikipedia entries seem to always come up first these days. Dtate888 ( talk) 00:33, 29 October 2011 (UTC) reply
Your entire response indicates clearly that your goal on Wikipedia is promotional, which is not aligned with Wikipedia's goal to build an encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not a platform to "help [your] notability". Nor is it a promotion channel to highlight your products. Therefore, this request is no Declined.
You may propose your draft article over at Wikipedia:Articles for creation and see if the community believes it merits inclusion in Wikipedia. There is no need for it to have external links to the company at that time. If it is suitable for main article space, then you may request white-listing of a specific page on your company web site (such as the "about our company" page) over on MediaWiki talk:Spam-whitelist. There should be no need to link to your product pages; if these products are notable, there should be independent reliable sources describing them. ~ Amatulić ( talk) 17:50, 13 December 2011 (UTC) reply
Thank you Amatulic for the thoughtful reply. I have actually already been told at the Help Desk that Unicoi is not notable enough to have an entry. Since you suggested it, however, I will probably submit my draft article to Wikipedia:Articles for creation.
On another note, I still think that we should not be blacklisted since we are a legitimate entity. Having an article on Wikipedia is a different issue from being blacklisted. Our reputation is tarnished by being on the blacklist, and I had hoped that this could be reconciled somehow. If we were to become un-blacklisted, I would like to update our listings on pages like List of real-time operating systems. I try to be clear with my motives because I do not want to be deceptive. I know Wikipedia is not an advertising service and I will respect that. Dtate888 ( talk) 16:52, 14 December 2011 (UTC) reply
Please read WP:CORP, which describes various criteria for inclusion for Wikipedia articles about companies. If you can propose an article that includes coverage by multiple independent reliable sources (not trivial mentions, press releases or other self-published material), then the article would likely be a keeper.
As to your other point, well, blacklisting is a consequence of spamming. The company had a choice to collaborate responsibly with the project, but chose instead to spam. Therefore Unicoi is now blacklisted. The company must live with the consequences of its actions. It is appreciated that you are upfront about your conflict of interest. Please understand, however, we don't (and shouldn't) remove sites from the blacklist at the request of anyone with a conflict of interest. If a trusted, high volume editor deems the site worthy of de-listing, we would consider it. We would also consider requests to white-list specific pages on the site. The company "about" page could be white-listed for inclusion on list of real-time operating systems perhaps, assuming that it meets the WP:CORP threshold. ~ Amatulić ( talk) 18:56, 14 December 2011 (UTC) reply
Thankyou Amatulic for the thoughtful, speedy reply. Thank you for the compliment. Unfortunately, since I am affiliated with the company, and since Unicoi has little notability, I suppose it is doubtful that we will be removed from the blacklist unless a trusted editor happens to come across this proposed removal case and suggest Unicoi be de-listed. Nevertheless, it's easy enough for me to submit the article to Wikipedia:Articles for creation like you said to see if other people have thoughts or ideas. Perhaps one of them will either have suggestions about the article or taken interest in suggesting Unicoi.com to be removed from the blacklist.
For the record, my draft article contains all of the independent (or at least partially independent) sources I was able to find at this point, namely the old "Analog Devices" article, and the TAG awards article/video. (I'm not sure about the Bloter.net one since it's in Korean :\ ). The Analog Devices article does specifically mention our "Fusion RTOS", so I believe that may be grounds for inclusion in the whitelist. I suppose the best link for inclusion in the whitelist would then be "unicoi.com/product_suite_pages/fusion_rtos_product_suite.htm". Then I could add a reference to the list of real-time operating systems page whilst still abiding by the WP:CORP (If it's not notable) policy. Dtate888 ( talk) 20:18, 14 December 2011 (UTC) reply

Not quite sure about the procedure for proposing a whitelisting so I hope I'm doing this right.

It was blacklisted in November 2009 due to repeated spamming by a batch of IP addresses in the 81.*.*.* range. The question on whether a blog has actually become an authoritative resource is something to be addressed at WP:RSN.

The reason it is blacklisted is because all of *.co.cc is blacklisted globally, not just on the English Wikipedia.
No rationale has been given for white-listing this site.

If it's for the same purpose as the original spammer, I'm inclined to deny this request. ~ Amatulić ( talk) 08:33, 27 December 2011 (UTC) reply

Folks,

While the domain sermonaudio.com is blacklisted, it is not listed in the log. SermonAudio is a professionally run web service hosting audio for church sermons and teaching. I have been a member for some years and have never seen the site create (or be used for) spam. While this is my first report of a proposed removal, I don't see any obvious reason in the COIBot report to suggest why it's been blacklisted. If there's something obvious to an Admin, I'll look forward to your response and clarification here, to help me better understand the mechanism.

FWIW, my intention to link to it is simply to link to a page showing the messages for a particular church. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Carehart ( talk • contribs)

The web site at sermonaudio.com was being inserted into our Excommunication article as recently as last November: [11] and [12]. Since these additions were made by an IP-hopping editor from the 75.* range you can form your own judgment as to whether they were in good faith. See article history for several previous attempts, all of which were reverted by the regular editors. I decided to apply semiprotection to prevent further insertions. An editor at User talk:75.137.110.254 was blocked in 2008 for repeatedly inserting the link.

I would not be in favor of undoing the blacklisting. EdJohnston ( talk) 06:47, 3 January 2012 (UTC) reply
no Declined. The missing log entry is an oversight. Had it been logged, it would likely list Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Spam/2008_Archive Sep 1#sermonaudio.com as evidence. ~ Amatulić ( talk) 22:42, 3 January 2012 (UTC) reply

I've been helping to edit the article for the band Frightened Rabbit, and given their lack of widespread popularity, it can be very hard to find an adequate citation if one is blocked. A story that the band describes was important to their start, and it needs to be said. Without uncensoredinterviews.com being available for me to use as a citation, I don't have the ability use the bit. Now, I'm probably wrong as to the customs for putting a new entry into Wikipedia, but I was fairly sure that most things need citations. I assure you that this site isn't spam (or so I hope), it contains quite a bit of valuable information about less popular bands, and if it is possible, could this site be removed from the list, or at least an explanation of why it was put on it in the first place?

 Not done (1) Site was spammed by multiple accounts over a two year period until it was blacklisted. (2) Frightened Rabbit has plenty of references, so it's not as obscure as you suggest. If there is a single specific interview you feel contains information not otherwise existing in the current refs, you can propose whitelisting it at MediaWiki_talk:Spam-whitelist.

I will. Thanks for looking at my proposal though. The evacipated ( talk) 04:06, 12 January 2012 (UTC) reply
