It is not under a spam attack. That link has been there for some time, and is about the subject. The wiki policy states links to discussion forums are acceptable if they are solely about the subject matter. It is. It isn't a random forum. A spam bot deleted it without checking and has now repeatedly delete it numerous times, and another editor is repeatedly removing it in error.

I have tried to get in to dialogue with these editors, but they have refused to reply. What can I do with people like that? Somehow most previous edits have been removed. The link had been there for months - i haven't just put it in. An editor has decided to delete every single network54.com link. I have been reinserting the link because it was deleted with no real reason - it falls within that Wikipolicy as far as I can see. And they keep re-deleting it offering no genuine reason or even checking the link. I understand Wikipedia isn't here to advertise websites, but it is the most active Only Ones/Perrett forum and is a course for news.

I unfourtunately can't show you, as somehow they have deleted about 2 days of edits somehow. I repeatedly asked them in the edit comment section to check the link and read their talk pages before deleting the link again before deleting. I wasn't even aware anyone could do that, and they have done it twice. After they reverted the edits about 5 times, those edits disappeared. I also left messages on their user page, which they wouldn't repond to and deleted them!

I did leave a message on their normal user account, but they didn't respond there either. I am amazed and disgusted that "Betacommand" can hide his appaling behavior. There isn't any legitimate opposition to the link - it was removed by a spam bot, then Betacommand got in on the act, and then another use reverted my edit as they must have seen the repeated edit reverting. No one with any interest in the subject matter has tried to remove the link. As you are an established editor, would you be willing to add the link again on my behalf?

== autoblock finder not working so well anymore? ==
Hi,
I just found out the wesbite cvisiontech.com is on the MediaWiki spam blacklist. NishKid64 referred me to you, and I was wondering if you knew why this wesbite is on that list.
 
Twice in the past week, I've used the autoblock finder on particular accounts that were either not blocked, or recently unblocked, and found nothing. I was only able to find the autoblock by searching by the name of the alternate account that triggered the autoblock. Is this normal behaviour? –[[user:xeno|<span style="font-family:verdana; color:black;">'''xeno'''</span>]][[user talk:xeno|<sup style="color:black;">talk</sup>]] 17:33, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi Eagle 101. We are on the blacklist. It does not look to me like there was EVER any blatant spamming of any kind what-so-ever. It looks to me like our old (now fired) web company tried to add a very FEW (1-3) helpful appropriate links to a few relevant wikipedia pages. One was a very useful quote page that STILL REMAINS. What I don't understand, is there are other companies similar in nature, adding way more spammy links than we are, and they are not blacklisted. Is it appropriate to ban someone without any warning at all, when less than a few links to very appropriate pages were added? Its one thing to remove a link or page, or dispute it if a moderator says no, but why ban the site if very useful attempts were made to improve the quality of the page and increase the user experience? That is very extreme in my opinion. Can we please have this removed? It is not fair in nature at all. Everything looks to have been made in an appropriate way. [[User:RunnerD|RunnerD]] 18:58, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
:I've never banned anyone, and spamming of any sort is not tolorated. I will double check the reasoning behind the blacklist though. Otherwise I would suggest using [[m:Local whitelisting]] to get parts of the site whitelisted. In any case, when dealing with links and wikipedia, I ask you to mind [[WP:COI|our conflict of interest guidelines]].

== Wikipedia:IRC/wikipedia-en-help founder proposal ==
== De-commercializing a Wikipedia Page ==
 
A request for comment has begun on the subject of [[Wikipedia:IRC/wikipedia-en-help founder proposal]].
Sir:
 
Claritas Inc. had its page removed by you a couple of months ago for being too commercial. There was no further explanation beyond that, and we made a second attempt to post a page with edited copy to no avail. It, too, was removed by you obstensibly for again being too commercial. In checking the pages of some of Claritas' competitors, I discovered that their product names are included in the copy and hotlinked to another Wikipedia page. I believe this may be the rub with regards to the Claritas page because our product names were hotlinked to the website for that product. If we were to either remove the hyperlink or create more Wikipedia pages for the product name, could we be reinstated?
 
Further, do you save the copy that you removed, so that it can be returned to the the appropriate party (me) for editing, or did you delete it all together?
 
I appreciate your reply.

== Message invoving WT:WPSPAM ==
Dear Eagle,
 
I have been a contributor to wikipedia, specifically on the listing of my native island of Milos: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milos . On several occasions, I corrected some existing information (corrected spelling of names of some villages) added missing information (such as additional villages of the island), contributed book references (Prof. Colin Renfrew's notable books) and even removed vandalism, i.e., after someone wrote: "Ellgal imgrant from Kroatia" under "Description".
 
I have even contributed on external links, by editing errors and removing irrelevant links that would have been considered link spam by most logical people. Lately, however, I have been a victim of persecution by a couple of your editors, namely VSmith and Hu12.
 
I admit I have not read ALL wikipedia rules and I have no idea how absurd, nonsensical, or self-conflicting they might be (and it sounds as if some of them are) simply because I have a life and no time to read every web site's rules. I try to make decisions in life based on common sense. Invariably, however, I find that common sense isn't very common.
 
I'd like to submit that you ought to know your enemies, and recognize, as opposed to persecute, your friends. What Hu12 and VSmith have done, is to alienate a contributor and a wikipedia friend through hypocrisy and unjustified power trips. It seems that you were rather quick to respond to Hu12's and VSmith's outrageous accusations:
 
1) My links are not spam. They are relevant, informative, non-commercial, popular websites about the island of Milos, and therefore appropriate as external links on the wikipedia listing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milos . To equate my websites with the garbage spammers and vandals inflict on wikipedia is gravely insulting to me, and hurts wikipedia's credibility.
 
Some of your editors obviously do not know, or have an extremely loose definition of, what spam is. I'd be happy to forward to your editors a few hundreds of the garbage I receive in my personal mailbox daily, in order to educate them as to what spam really is.
 
 
2) I was informed that I posted "link spam", and my contributions were summarily deleted. I countered that my websites were not commercial. After seeing my contributions disappear a couple of times, I was informed that I should not be "touting my own stuff" so I stopped. Others, totally unrelated to me on either a personal or business level, on their own free will, have added references to the aforementioned websites, but their contributions were summarily deleted as well. It seems that reason is not the criteria here but rather, some editors' egomaniac agenda.
 
3) I was notified not to post in external links again, but to discuss the matter on the editor's talk page. What a joke! My concerns were not addressed, I only received laconic responses, my last post there was deleted as well, and I was asked to discuss the matter on some other, different, wikipedia forums. A classic case of passing the buck, in other words.
 
4) Hu12 posted an outrageous comment on your talk page: "...the spammer (who owns all these sites) essentialy states he will not stop". That's an outright lie. I've kept records of all posts of mine on wikipedia, even posts unscrupulously deleted by your editors, and I challenge anyone to point out where I've claimed any such thing.
 
With all the time he expended removing my contributions, Hu12 obviously should know better. Calling me a "spammer" is yet another grave insult against my person. Hu12 should be ashamed of himself. So offended I am over this unjustifiable accusation and defamation of character, that I seriously consider this as grounds for a lawsuit.
 
A comment regarding myself on VSmith's talk page was the I have not made any other contributions. This is of course, not true. I simply have changed ISPs in the past, inheriting different IPs as a result. How short-sighted can a person be, to assume that because I have not signed up with a wikipedia handle, I must have made no contributions in the past, whatsoever?
 
5) Another outrageous comment by Hu12: "...who is also posting under all the above IP's". This is also a lie, which is as outrageous as it is absurd. Take a look at the IPs in question: In order for me to post from these different IPs, I'd have to travel to multiple locations half across the globe in a matter of a few hours! Again, Hu12 should be ashamed of himself, that is, if he had a shred of decency in him.
 
It has been other people, on their own free will, adding these same websites under external links, obviously because they feel these websites are worthwhile contributions. I have no relationship to those people. In the meantime, discussion is stifled, and rampant accusations fly. So now, since the supposedly "commercial" character of my websites and "conflict of interest" claims of your editors have been totally obliterated, I'd be curious to find out what VSmith's and Hu12's *new* excuse for deleting the relevant and informative Milos external links is or will be.
 
In any case, I hereby demand that you, unconditionally:
 
a) remove any and ALL references on wikipedia to my websites as associated with spam or black/brown/block lists,
b) retract any of your submissions to 3rd parties including but not limited to websites, where my websites are portrayed as link spam,
c) remove ALL accusations on wikipedia against my person as a "spammer", and
d) have an official apology issued to me from wikipedia, regarding the lies of your editors, defamation of my character, and misrepresentation of my contributions.

Hey, sorry to bother you, but I was hoping that you would do me a favor. I wrote the article on "Beautiful Ohio" pretty much from scratch and was hoping that you would take a look at it and tell me what you think. I saw that you were an administrator and were moderating the debate over the "The" in "The Ohio State University" (I think that you definitely ought to have it, but that's another topic...). I just wanted someone with a lot of experience to look over my work and make sure it was up to par. This was the first time I did any serious editing and wanted to make sure I cited everything properly and whatnot. Anyway, if you don't have time that's fine, I definitely understand. Thanks so much for your time. [[User:Gbms86|Gbms86]] 04:57, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

==RE: question==
The editors page move goes against a consensus to leave the article where it is instead of moving it to iMPACT, since although[[Total Nonstop Action Wrestling|TNA]] spells it as iMPACT, their stylized typography goes against [[MoS:TM]]. The article was originally at iMPACT, but a discussion was had (and the article fully protected for almost a month at one point) until a consensus was reached. A consensus was reached and the issue declared dead since tempers started to flare. Since the page move goes against consensus, I have been lead to understand that constitutes vandalism. Even [[User:MartinBot|MartinBot]] rved their page move at one point.

Hi,<br>
I want to help out at the spam whitelist now I am an admin, but I am doing something wrong. The first entry I added, which seemed to be a perfectly reasonable request, was [[MediaWiki_talk:Spam-whitelist#simonetti.forumcommunity.net|simonetti.forumscommunity.net]], but it just hasn't worked. It is currently at the bottom of the list, and I added it yesterday, leaving it, thinking it may need time to update. I also recorded it in the logs. Could you take a look and see what I have done wrong? Sorry if I am being more of a hinderance than a help at this stage. [[User:J Milburn|J Milburn]] 15:51, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current [[WP:ACE2015|Arbitration Committee election]]. The [[WP:ARBCOM|Arbitration Committee]] is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia [[WP:RFAR|arbitration process]]. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose [[WP:BAN|site bans]], [[WP:TBAN|topic bans]], editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The [[WP:ARBPOL|arbitration policy]] describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to [[WP:ACE2015/C|review the candidates' statements]] and submit your choices on [[Special:SecurePoll/vote/398|the voting page]].

Why was this deleted, it wasn't spam! And there was a healthy number of people updating it. If this page is considered deletable as advertising then every MMORPG page should be deleted. Infact the sherwood dungeon page has more reason to exist than most game pages because it uses innovative techniques to create an MMORPG in shockwave on basic equipment and with short download time. I dno't know if you saw the page at a bad time when some idiot had edited it like it was a forum or it had been vandalised (i moderately regularily re-write it into a more encyclopedic form) but there was no reason to delete this page. <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|unsigned]] comment was added by [[Special:Contributions/131.111.247.179|131.111.247.179]] ([[User talk:131.111.247.179|talk]]) 09:31, 16 April 2007 (UTC).</small><!-- HagermanBot Auto-Unsigned -->

==You've got mail!==
Let's say that I am attempting to start a new article, and it is quite lengthy. I have been using the sandbox to "experiment" with the article -- to see how it looks, to format it correctly, etc. But, I understand that the sandbox is a "temporary holding place" -- so, when I log off of Wikipedia, my work is gone (although I save it in a WORD document). Is there any long-term temporary holding places in which I can store my project, and later go back and work on it, until it is substantially ready to post? There must be some way to do this on Wikipedia, I imagine -- since many projects are lengthy and time-consuming to complete. Thanks. (JosephASpadaro 03:38, 22 April 2007 (UTC))
