Could PLEASE one of the wiki admins del 'Ebanis' and 'Snif'?

Hi!

As everyone can see, im a bit busy atm to revert the spam done by the users Ebanis and Snif...

If the wiki admins don't care, give me the rights to del users (it can be proved easily that Ebanis as well as Snif only spam our wiki), it would at least save some time for me!

Sorry, that I did not directly write to one of the admins, but I thought a general "Spam detection"-thread would be nice, a place where people could post the user names of the spammers etc...

Maybe we will start to fight spam actively smile

Greetings, hellwoofa

Well, no one can give random people the right to delete users, that's kinda dumb - give me rights to delete users on your desktop.

Can you please point out some instances of this spam?  I will take action, I just need proof.

If you have a look at the Recent Changes (now), you see what I mean:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Spe … entchanges

Or here:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Spe … /Hellwoofa

The spammer's work can be seen here
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Spe … ons/Ebanis
and here:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Spe … tions/Snif

(You of course have to go to the history of the corresponding wiki pages to see what they did in the articles since most of the spamming was reverted by me and also by PJ (thanks guy!) as I saw while posting this answer...

Greetz,

hellwoofa

PS: Since this threadstart, the spammers contaminated again 5 posts, some of them multiple times... only if we delete them accurately after they "show" themselves the first time, we really can hope that they get bored by signing up again and again....

Sorry, I was a bit in a hurry when I started the thread (movie started at 19:30 in the city) and forgot to extra mention it smile

New spammers in the wiki: Golgy, Kissablemaiden, Logiclrd, Ixnorp, Hell
Guess Mmcd, Snif and Ebanis nedded some new accounts since their previous accounts have been blocked.

Some proof:

zpmg!
I haven't done any wiki adminning in ages.. hmm.. I will see what I can discover.

We might have better luck getting ahold of Dp (he is wiki god) or Rasat (head wiki moderator).

dp + rasat are the people that get about 2 mails daily with suggestions whom to delete etc. smile

But that can't be a solution for the long term...

Currently, it's btw Apeloverage who is the newest registered spammer!
