| DO NOT remove any URL or pattern from this list without first gaining consensus on MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist. In addition to being used to block automated spam attacks this list is also occasionally used to stop persistent abuse of the Project:External links and Project:Don't tout policies. Please add violators of the external links policy to this page ONLY after first trying to educate the user about why the link is inappropriate. When adding external link violators to this page please explain the reason for the addition on MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist. |
# # External URLs matching this list will be blocked when added to a page. # This list affects only the English Wikivoyage; refer also to the global blacklist # For documentation see www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SpamBlacklist # Log your addition. All additions to this blacklist MUST also be logged at MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist # # Syntax is as follows: # * Everything from a "#" character to the end of the line is a comment # * Every non-blank line is a regex fragment which will only match hosts inside URLs # # This is the local blacklist for Wiki spam URLs for Wikivoyage. It's used # by the spam filter to block contributions that use these URLs. # # To add a URL to the spam filter list just add the spam URL including # everything after the "http://" and before the first "/" to the list. # # In addition, the spam filter uses what are called regular expressions, so # special characters such as periods need to be escaped by putting a "\" in # front of them. # # For example, "http://spam.spammer.net/foo.html" would be added as # "spam\.spammer\.net". Notice that we don't include the "http://" nor # anything after the first "/" following the "http://" so "/foo.html" should # not be added. # # One caveat is that if the entire domain seems to be used only for spam we # don't bother to worry about sub-domains and in the example above would just # list "spammer\.net". # # For the spam filter to work properly you must indent one (1) space. It # helps everyone stay sane and find things better if the list is in # alphabetical order. # [Ff]alafel[Bb]us\.com [Hh]awaiian[Pp]addle[Ss]ports\.com hoianeasyriders?\.(wordpress\.|)com i[fF]rance\.com instagram\.com/tehran [Kk]anchanaburi-(hotel|info)\.com [\./]putinbay\.com sheraton\.com/senggigi [Ss]outhern[Rr]esorts\.com zoominearth\.(com|it)
