Road Rovers Wiki article has 2 spam Reference links

I am completely new. I do not know how to submit something for removing erroneous reference links. This is not user-friendly to someone new.

Thanks for the headsup. I'm sorry you had to endure the rickroll. I'm not seeing the Watch Road Rovers link applied to the page. It's likely the program was available on VRV for a while but apparently is no longer so. I've applied a welcome message to your talk page. If I can help orient you, please feel invited to call on me. The Teahouse link on the welcome message you may find particularly useful BusterD (talk) 22:39, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

SEO attempts by spamming their links to various tech-related articles. Already happened in April, but the nature of their edits and some off-wiki evidence suggests they will return. – NJD-DE (talk) 16:39, 24 May 2021‎

It appears they are back with a different user: JesWade.– NJD-DE (talk) 19:30, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Lottery spam

Non lottery, but users also spammed one of the above

Spotted this when a user spammed a non-lottery site, but it was across a couple of users and IP's, want to see how extensive this has been happening and go from there, based on the reports. There was some cross-wiki spam - [4]. Ravensfire (talk) 16:22, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
