I propose the removal of the companies in this section and of Urbanrenewal username Review commentary on the individual pages and review content presented. Concensus of wikipedia users have disagreed with efforts of the above contributor to list these topics as spam. The articles (to the extent they have been recently revised) are now encyclopedic, well-balanced, referenced and based on notable organizations and these organizations do not belong on this list with real spammers.

Additionally, review Urbanrenewal's contributions - again they are referencd, well balanced and focused on notable organizations.

 * From my reading of guidelines there is no objection to creating pages related to different subjects in the same general area. The firms listed are not related to each other.  I have no connection with the other accounts and the timing of my recent activity was timed to coincide with nomination of certain pages for deletion.  I took it upon myself to fix and balance articles that were objectionable.  I cannot take responsibility for other people's articles but I think the articles that are present now are objective and I stand by my contributions.Urbanrenewal (talk) 12:50, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Fansite spam
I have seen over the last year or so spam from what appears to all be the same company's "fan sites". They are mostly just link aggregators. None of them are affiliated with the athlete in question. They have been spammed here and to the tagalog Wikipedia (http://tl.wikipedia.org) by a variety of IPs. I've removed them on and off when I have noticed them. I suggest blacklisting them if nobody has any objections. --B (talk) 01:40, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

http://spam.historic66.com
This seems a funny one. A couple of days ago removed a bunch of ELs from U.S. Route 66 claiming spammers diff when at least 2 links were perfectly legit (1 of the others was out of date, 1 wasn't spam but dubious value, and 1 borderline case). The added in a new and pointless paragraph citing historic66.com twice as a reference diff. Spidey sense time.

A bunch of other ELs scattered around (a web citation taking to their Amazon affiliate buy a CD-ROM page on Meramec Caverns for example), so far they seem of little real value and the domain seems to have a dubious history - I'll be careful with what I remove as I poke around but they seem to have no real value and a dubious domain history.

Could someone look at this? I'm kind of in the middle of working on something else. Thanks! Kelly hi! 01:27, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Spam as references?
I'm conflicted about what to do here. Every one of 's edits has inserted a link to a website called gameslayer.co.uk, but as a inline citation. Some of them have added text as well, either via sentence , or a whole paragraph    , though most include just adding his link as a standard inline citation (such as in this edit). Should this all be reverted as spam? Should it be left under the principle that all citations are good? A little advice would be appreciated. Dreaded Walrus t c 21:43, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

"community website" spam
Some douchenozzle at the IP address 207.59.144.80 has been adding links to completely content-free wanna-be "community sites" to the articles for various east-coast communities. Most of them have little to no actual content, and since they're all obviously by the same company, it seems obvious that this twit is seeking to promote the site via Wikipedia, rather than seeking to contribute anything to it. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hillsborough_Township%2C_New_Jersey&diff=198194688&oldid=197319467 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/207.59.144.80 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andy Christ (talk • contribs) 10:37, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't know if this is the right place for this, but advertisements for this pirate Meridian59 server are being posted to the Merdian59 article regularly, and to a few other, unrelated MMORPG articles.

It's primarily being posted by this IP :

 * Both IPs have gotten enough warnings to more than justify blacklisting locally.

The blog entry adds nothing substantive to the article and there are too many links in the article as it is. The blog links to the author's other commercial/professional sites. Dgodot has been reverting my edits saying that his blog entry has a perspective not currently present in the article.

mi-technologies
Several IP addresses (and initially User:Gremplar) are repeatedly adding this site to antenna measurement and moving it to the top of the list of links in an apparent attempt at promotion. I have warned two of the offending IP addresses, and on my final warning to User:81.152.171.33, I received the snarky reply that I would have trouble blocking them because they were using an internet cafe to insert the spam. Fair enough since the addresses vary so much, but the site itself could still be blacklisted.

Stephen Short
Hi everyone. Today I was perusing around Wikipedia, and in particular, the article on Augustana (band). I had recently attended one of their shows in Detroit and was interested in reading a bit more about them. In the course of reading, I followed a link to their manager, Stephen Short. I read Stephen's article and felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up at how obvious it was written by himself as an autobiography and self promotional material. Further investigation into article history proved my suspicions. The user's identity can be confirmed through the photo included on the Stephen Short article, Image:Stephen Short Trident.jpg which is noted as being self-made and taken by User:ManbirS. ManbirS's contributions show an extensive edit history of his own article as well as several of the bands he represents. In fact, he is the contributor 90% of the time to article's he does edit and on more than a few occasions has shown that he WP:own's the article.

I am deeply concerned about this sort of editing on Wikipedia. I appreciate the sentiment of WP:SOAP in that if you're famous enough, others will write your own article. Direct involvement in an article by oneself is more or less disrespectful of the Wikipedia project and ideals.

I'm not sure what should be done in this case as surely himself and the bands he represents are notable enough, given that Augustana does have some Top 20 hits and touring, but Mr Short's (or his surrogates) edits are not limited to merely correcting factual errors but are promotional in nature and scope.

Thanks for reviewing. I don't know what should be done but I'll leave it to the pros.--Jeff (talk) 05:28, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
