Hi, I am trying to link a useful simulator for a flash video game, but the link was blocked by the spam filter, cited as "probably caused by a blacklisted link or pagename." I came here because I would like to include it on the page, and the error message linked me here.

The link is:

Hello
No, really, Hello. I can't create a page named "hello" on the Tropes Wikia because it tells me it's banned. there are legitimate pages with that title, let alone content. --Anime Addict (talk) 15:52, February 1, 2013 (UTC)

Ah, here's the message: --Anime Addict (talk) 15:52, February 1, 2013 (UTC)
 * "Hello" is a page that is commonly created by spambots, so we have blocked it from creation by normal users. I'll create the page for you, and then you should be able to edit it without any problems. 16:19, February 1, 2013 (UTC)

"Get Al"

Error message:

The following link, text or pagename is what triggered our spam filter: get al

If you think this is wrong, please contact us here. Please, provide a copy of this message when reporting any problem.

The page already contained this text and wouldn't let me save it because the words "get Al" were used consecutively in a real sentence. (I had to change it to "bring Al" for it to permit me to save.)

Hola at POTC Wiki
To whom it may concern: I was trying to make a POTC Wiki page titled "Hola" to redirect to "Codex:H#Hola". However, I got this message:
 * The page you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a blacklisted link or pagename. ( Call #9 ) The following link, text or pagename is what triggered our spam filter: hola

Then it told me to post here and provide a copy of the above message. Not sure if this would help in figuring out the issue, but we also have recently added an abuse filter on the Wiki. So if anyone can fix this I'd be most grateful. :) --J FanOn Stranger Tides, Arkham City 16:34, February 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * A title of "Hola" on it's own is a common spam pattern, so it was blocked. I've created the page for you --  Random Time  17:11, February 2, 2013 (UTC)
