- I am sorry, i did not see this request earlier. This reports does not say that you are spamming. I see you make a genuine edit there. The link has been reported as being spammed by a user (see the reason why it was on the monitor listing:
- Link would be caught by rule \bparasitedb\.com on the monitor list (Automonitor: reported to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Spam (diff)).
- In the diff you see that someone reported the link as being spammed by IP 220.255.87.205 to WT:WPSPAM.
- This bot only monitors, links which may be bad, though for which we do not know the full use, or if it is really a case of spam and it should be blacklisted. I see here that is not the case.
- I have whitelisted you against the link, I hope this explains. Regards, --Beetstra (public) (Dirk BeetstraT C on public computers) 15:47, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
- Hello Beetstra, thanks for the reply. My question is: Can this page itself be deleted? Chiazwhiz 09:09, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
- The bot would regenerate the page again the next time the link gets added. Also, the same record would also be in the wikipedia database anyway (in the edit history of the page). In a way, it shows us that the link gets used positively, and that we should not directly consider it for blacklisting. Hope this explains. --Dirk Beetstra T C 15:42, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
