Accounts

Both of these unrelated sites have been repeatedly added over time by these two otherwise low-activity accounts. Neither site looks reliable, as they're just review blogs filled with affiliate shopping links. Both accounts have made a few other edits, but not many, and some of them have also been borderline spammy. The behavior of both accounts is periodic batches of edits adding sources, of which only some are blogs or possible spam. The links are easy to remove, but I'm curious if this isn't part of larger pattern. Grayfell (talk) 04:55, 14 December 2016 (UTC)

information Note: The users in question haven't edited since your report. Before further action, one probably should wait for further edits. If all the users have done entail linkspam or promotion, they should be reported to admins. --Rlin8 (talk) 05:39, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

I am going to pull the trigger on this. If there is more, please make a subsection. plus Added to MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist. --Dirk Beetstra T C 19:36, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
This is a continuation of Special:Permanentlink/743622062#Pure_Tonic_Marketing; as such I have removed the duplicated blacklist entries. MER-C 07:16, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
@MER-C: thanks for the link and removal. I did not notice that there was an older discussion related to this (I obviously started with the ones that LiWa3 noticed as being spammed (obviously not blacklisted), and queried the bot/db to get the rest of the links. I've blocked some more accounts after my blacklisting, but I am sure that this is not all of it (yet). --Dirk Beetstra T C 10:20, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
