Patterned spam Edit

On my ender wikia I have loads of spam following a very typical pattern. There are two words and then a 3 digit number advertising tourism or something like that. Usually tourism. Are there any other people reporting this? Please get back to me. The IP is 88.190.241.215 123chess456 02:15, April 12, 2012 (UTC)

That IP was blocked and cleaned. In the future, add the IPs here. Rappy 19:46, April 16, 2012 (UTC)

Warhammer Online Wiki Edit

The Warhammer Online Wiki is under frequent attacks from spammers during the past day, but strangely they don't post any links, it's just random text they are entering as comments on tons of pages, it's very time consuming to go through all the changes and block the ip and delete the post. Etaew 10:18, April 13, 2012 (UTC)

I've disabled anonymous commenting for 10 days, that should get rid of them for now, let us know if they return after that -- RandomTime 10:57, April 13, 2012 (UTC)

File: TPhoto 00002.jpg on Donkey Kong WikiaEdit

I don't think this is spam, but I can't find any category more reasonable to put it in.

Anyways, someone uploaded their portrait, and it needs to be deleted. I tried contacted an administrator, but it's still there. Can you please delete the portrait? It's not even being used on a page! --Thenewguy34 11:17, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

SamuelEdit

Whoops, I almost forgot the Samuel page as well.

The "Samuel" page does not exist, the file is beyond our control - it's defiantly not a violation of the Terms of Use of Wikia to upload a personal photo -- RandomTime 11:20, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
Correct that, Category:Samuel. Sorry about that.--Thenewguy34 11:22, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
Please speak to HavocReaper48, the admin - about this. -- RandomTime 11:24, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
I've spoken to a couple of admins, but none of them have replied or deleted the Category:Samuel page. I at least expect someone to come in and delete it if he doesn't delete it in at least 7 days. --Thenewguy34 11:28, April 15, 2012 (UTC)
That's not really our job, we're concerned about cross-wiki vandalism and spam, and vandalism on wikis where there aren't any active administrators. -- RandomTime 11:40, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

Pages that need to be deleted on the Biology WikiaEdit

When I went onto the Biology Wikia, I noticed quite a bit of spam and vandalism. I cleared some of it out on articles, but there's still spam that needs to be deleted. They can be found here. --Thenewguy34 19:20, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

Removed the pages by Rabbitexcretment and the IP. The others are up to local admin to delete. Rappy 19:31, April 15, 2012 (UTC)

Spam on Cyber Nations Wiki Edit

I'm an admin on the Cyber Nations Wiki. I don't know if this is a known problem or what the deal is, but in the past couple days several IPs, apparently spam bots, have been replacing content on various pages with random sentences that are usually misspelled in some way. Each IP seems to be used only once. You can see a list of the recently blocked ones here. So I was wondering if there's a way to stop whatever is behind this. Thanks, Bobogoobo 01:36, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I have protected the wiki for 30 hours. Anons can't create new pages/comments in that time. Hope that will stop them. Vega-Dark 03:04, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

Dragons of Atlantis spammer Edit

I'm an admin on this page, but someone is using a rolling IP or something to post links to various porn sites. Is there a way to ban this person other than with the IP? Every few hours they post a few more comments, don't want to turn commenting off on the page, but I don't know how else to deal with them other than sitting on here 24-7 to monitor. Here's the one's used so far: 173.57.20.30, 188.40.135.138, 188.165.212.59, 194.170.28.239, 41.158.128.190, 80.253.10.250, 78.107.140.2


If someone could help, would be appreciated! LurkersRus 23:41, April 20, 2012 (UTC)

EDIT: Added more IPs, it looks like they are in ranges... maybe that can help! And the specific article is Outposts. LurkersRus 20:58, April 21, 2012 (UTC)

blog spam Edit

multiple blog spam from 79.172.27.98 & 194.170.28.239 & 188.165.212.59, see RecentChanges from 20th + 21st.--Sxerks 15:16, April 21, 2012 (UTC)

Article Comment Spam on South Park Archives Edit

Hello. I'm an admin over at South Park Archives and we have had to disable article comments twice due to what appears to be a spam bot. It posts generic messages that have no relevancy towards the article; it says things such as "I told her that 9/11 was a conspiracy" and "Hi Dave and Kathy, we'd love to exchange a few emails to compare things". The comments have been deleted and the IPs blocked, but it's a new IP every time. I think it's using a proxy or something like TOR. We do not know what to do; we considered a range block but the IPs are not in the same ranges. Can you help? Thanks and have a nice day!

The IPs we've had to block are:

  • 199.167.193.26
  • 218.188.91.246
  • 108.170.86.114
  • 157.181.161.26
  • 216.64.207.132
  • 63.110.36.75
  • 83.133.110.36
  • 196.203.54.130
  • 83.133.110.26

It's typical behaviour of spambots. Just report them here and we can take care of them. Sactage (talk) 00:57, April 24, 2012 (UTC)
Ah. Okay. Thanks! Here's two more we've had to block:
  • 91.140.239.75
  • 23.21.157.138

Fushigi Yuugi Wiki spam Edit

Sir(s), the Fushigi Yuugi Wiki is being used to promote spam. Can you do something? Thanks, Ryoga (talk) 16:35, April 25, 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, that spammer his about 600 wikis. I've been working on his spam for weeks now. I've 'rushed' the pages there and removed them for you. Rappy 09:05, April 30, 2012 (UTC)

Zelda Answers Edit

An administrator last edited on the 28 but there has been instances of, well, of idiotic IP behavior. 71.245.252.250 being the IP. --Jazzi 00:27, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

Star Wars The Old Republic Wiki Edit

the user has committed Marcosxikiito18 Spam in Star Wars The Old Republic Wiki by uploading images and pages that have nothing to do with the topic of Wiki and goes against the laws of this Wiki.--Infernape 8910 03:53, May 1, 2012 (UTC)

Spam bot IPs Edit

--Weas-El  @Wikia 05:37, May 2, 2012 (UTC)

First two taken care of. The other is more extensive and on the list to be cleaned. Rappy 05:11, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

Spam bot IP Edit

-- Bunai82 (talk) 22:15, May 2, 2012 (UTC)

All added to be cleaned. Next time, add them here. Rappy 05:19, May 3, 2012 (UTC)
Thank you and will do.
I added a IP to that page and I guess I did it wrong, so it was removed(?). So I thought I wasn't allowed to post there. -- Bunai82 (talk) 12:30, May 3, 2012 (UTC)
This vandal only vandalized there and was blocked locally, therefore was removed. This page is mainly for users that add a lot spam locally. For spambots, like the IPs above, they typically spam globally and should be added to the other page. Rappy 22:13, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

Spam on Aquarion wikia Edit

There have been a large amount of attacks of spam on Aquarion wikia. They post links to other websites which I've not clicked on yet and don't ever plan to. I have made a list of the IP users.

All added to be cleaned. Next time, add them here. Rappy 05:26, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

They were from Total Drama Mall Wiki. Thanks! Jess This is what dreams are made of 23:10, May 5, 2012 (UTC)

Really sorry, but we can't do anything about this - chat isn't logged in any way, and the VSTF can't ban people from chat. -- RandomTime 23:26, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
