Repeated citeation spamming to commerical websites

The loft conversion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loft_conversion) is suffering repeat citeation spamming with links to convertlofts.com, starlightloftconversions.com and and loftplan.co.uk which are commerical companies offering loft conversions. A user with the IP 86.12.51.115 has removed links to a non commerical website that were added by a trusted user. Previous links added by other users to non commercial websites that offered informative content have also been removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.85.58.0 (talk) 00:21, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lineage Unbroken

Hi,

I'm new to this, but I think I've noticed a spam reference being added:

  • Lineage Unbroken: The Complete Lineal Tracing of World Heavyweight Championship Boxing (Post Marciano Era) 1956-2003 [1]

It is a self-published book and has been added to 54 articles by the same editor.

Most of the additions were with no change to the article's content, but some were with positive contributions, while others were with additions of questionable value.

Is this spam? How should I deal with it?--Jahalive (talk) 19:44, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Seems there was some serious copywrite concerns with this site, however the owner himself states "..lyrics are coming from the LyricFind Data Base.." which makes the content from this site simply aggregated from another, more reliable source (fails WP:EL). Site also promotes anonymous submission of lyrics via a form (lyricsnmusic.com/submissions/new), this most certainly violates copywrites. Moreover Its WP:LINKSPAM added in apparent violation of Conflict of interest and anti-spam guidelines. Bobby Stark`Founder = Bstark247 (talk · contribs). The External Links policy on Advertising and conflicts of interest states explicitly; "you should avoid linking to a site that you own, maintain, or represent—even if WP guidelines seem to imply that it may otherwise be linked." and is in line with WP's conflict-of-interest guidelines. Additionaly Wikipedia is WP:NOT a vehicle for advertising and by spamming their own website violates one Wikipedia's main pillars, which is neutrality (NPOV). Lastly, since this user has no other contributions other than spamming links to their own website for several days straight, the policy Wikipedia:BLOCK#Disruption could also be applied here;
There's a multitude of policy and guideline violations involved in this case--Hu12 (talk) 00:48, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(Self?) Promotion of Steve Mariotti

This user has twice inserted a fairly large amount of promotional-sounding text into the Steve Mariotti article. I first discovered this aroung 2011-04. I suspect the text is being added by the subject, an agent/associate, or a "reputation management" company. Regardless, it's promoting a consulting/speaking business and is not a legitimate use of Wikipedia.

The person's latest ploy--perhaps in response to various requests for sources--is to add a bunch of links to the subject's personal site and a subject-written blog on HuffingtonPost.

I've tried to edit out the cruft/promo stuff, but the user is reverting my changes (albeit not rapidly).

It's possible the current user in question is a reincarnation of the "Essye.klempner" account used in 2011.

Examples: [12], [13]

I've posted warnings on both Essyek's and the IP's Talk page. — UncleBubba ( T @ C ) 07:35, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of Tamil-language radio stations

List of Tamil-language radio stations has a list of external links to about 26 "radio stations". Is it spam? How does one handle this? Should I just remove the external links and leave the names? Thanks Jim1138 (talk) 08:45, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

These two IPs have been adding promotional material to K-Rockathon. I've reverted them twice; anyone else care to take a look? --R'n'B (call me Russ) 14:35, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

While link appears to be added in good faith by User:Dutchy85, I don't see how it is appropriate or that it constitutes a reliable source. I'd appreciate additional opinions. OhNoitsJamie Talk 14:45, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue that the box office earnings of a film is extremely appropriate - there is a set feature for it in Wikipedia's box entries. The source comes from Variety magazine which is extremely reputable. The transmission of records is accurate - I have compared it with lists in actual Variety magazine. It also corresponds with figures contained in such publications as Aubrey Solomon's book on Twentieth Century Fox and Reel facts : the movie book of records by Cobbett Steinberg. It would be great if Variety made this data available directly but they do not.Dutchy85 (talk) 15:26, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Serious WP:LINKSPAMING of a Blog, which violates our External links Policy and fails Wikipedias Reliable Source guidelines. As of this post this user has added over 856 links to a blogspot domain with roughly 12 pages (1950-162) in about a week or so. Wikipedia is not a repository of links, and additions to multiple pages of this ferrocity are cleary intended to populate wikipedia with this link, rather than verify our content... For example;
14:52, 1 June 2012 (diff | hist) . . (+190)‎ . . Never Let Me Go (1953 film) ‎ (top)
14:52, 1 June 2012 (diff | hist) . . (+233)‎ . . Sangaree (film) ‎ (top)
14:50, 1 June 2012 (diff | hist) . . (+217)‎ . . Return to Paradise (1953 film) ‎ (top)
14:50, 1 June 2012 (diff | hist) . . (+189)‎ . . Houdini (film) ‎
The statement;
The problem is that all the content and images has been Scraped (Blog scraping) and is Copywritten by Variety magazine and are behind a paywall. There is no evidence of copyright permission or fair-use disclaimers so per WP:COPYRIGHT (external Web site appears to be carrying work in violation of the creator's copyright). I don't think the site meets any of our inclusion guidelines.--Hu12 (talk) 15:28, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
These should be removed per WP:ELNO , WP:RS and WP:LINKVIO -Hu12 (talk) 16:22, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Can I ask that the box office figures remain with a reference to Variety and deleting the link rather than abolishing the information altogether?Dutchy85 (talk) 04:51, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You can leave in the information if you remove the links yourself (as opposed to me using the rollback tool, which is much faster when you're dealing with more than 500 links). OhNoitsJamie Talk 14:52, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I can see that there is already a wholesale campaign to remove this information, which is likely the standard procedure, but this issue was hardly even been discussed before the removal started. Isn't there a process to create an exception to black-listed sites that do have some intrinsic value? What is more disturbing was the immediate piling on of administrators with some very "rough" language directed to a user on his/her talk page, who has tried to explain what the intentions were for adding the information and that there was an effort to validate the source information and background of the website. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 13:28, 4 June 2012 (UTC).[reply]

I noted here that the additions were in good-faith; I used the spam3 template because of the large scale of the additions. The policy violation is pretty clear here, not sure what else there is to discuss. OhNoitsJamie Talk 14:52, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps a little less virulent note left on the user's talk page would be appreciated; especially since there was no intent to vandalize, just an honest effort to add relevant information. BTW, I am not referring to your actions, which are completely in line with policy and acknowledged an AGF action. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 15:13, 4 June 2012 (UTC).[reply]

Thanks for that Bzuk, it did feel pretty miserable all these administrators jumping down my throat threatening to ban me from editing Wikipedia. The whole experience rattled me a little so I appreciate your comments.Dutchy85 (talk) 21:51, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
