GlobeElections UN, apparently continued
appears to be primarily promoting a minor youtube channel, Globe Elections UN. This appears to be a continuation of past promotion efforts to evade the fact that a related blog has already been blacklisted, and an edit filter seems to have been created due to previous efforts to circumvent that blacklisting. The previous discussion there suggests that use of a youtube channel was already included in the filter; I assume either the channel has been changed to circumvent the filter, or the filter itself isn't picking up on the edits for some reason (individual videos instead of linking the channel, maybe?).
