Dr. Eggman page on Mugen Wiki
I was trying to add a link to Txpot's Eggman and 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.

The following link, text or pagename is what triggered our spam filter: http://members.multimania.co.uk

That's the download is supposed to be in http://members.multimania.co.uk/txpot/Dr_Robotnik(ver_2.0).rar and a version for Mugen 1.0 users was in http://members.multimania.co.uk/txpot/Dr_Robotnik_1.0_Only.rar There was a Fileden version but it wasn't working at the time I tested it.

filter problem
Hey I am trying to post a post about prizerebel and how you can use it to get free gamecards for a game that we like to play. It would be very useful but I cannot post it because of spam filters! It is not spam! We can use it to get free money on the game!


 * You're likely trying to link to an off-wikia website, and based on what you've described it sounds like the filter is working as intended...you'll also need to post what exactly what it told was being blocked. -- Austin (Talk) 05:59, July 8, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, this is getting weird...

Writer's & H & R Block
On my Wheel of Fortune History wiki (http://wheeloffortunehistory.wikia.com/wiki/Wheel_of_Fortune_timeline_%28syndicated%29), the spam filter tripped on a reference to a puzzle with "H & R Block" in it. Clearly a false positive. TenPoundHammer 01:18, July 9, 2012 (UTC)


 * We'd need the spam filter message. I'm not seeing anything that should block the phrase "H & R Block". Rappy 01:30, July 9, 2012 (UTC)

Spam Filter Problem at Classic Car Wiki
Hey I got this message whilst trying to write a page about a car, the Sunbeam 20 on my wiki, The Classic Car Wiki.

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.

The following link, text or pagename is what triggered our spam filter: The 20 was a car made by Sunbeam that was made between 1926 and 1930. Over 2000 were built during this time.

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

Why has this happened? I have never seen the Spam Filter before, lol!

How is a former nation blocked and why?

base64 encoded pngs
The page you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a blacklisted link or pagename. The following link, text or pagename is what triggered our spam filter: iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAABAAAAASACAYAAABhrT9bAAAKP2lDQ1BJQ0MgcHJvZmlsZQAASEudlndQU9kXx

I will do some stuff with the image using and javascript located on mediawiki:common.js, have some restrictions on images that come from another subdomain that's why I need to use base 64.

I really believe there should be a way to ignore the spam filter if one is admin of the wiki, unless there is a way and I can't find it.

Edit: w:c:tibia:Outfiter/9.6_Gnome

--Daniel Letalis (talk) 01:54, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

Something like we are investigating this issue as an answer would be enough :s

--Daniel Letalis (talk) 05:38, July 12, 2012 (UTC)


 * string is too long, you'll need to change the file name length -- Austin (Talk) 07:22, July 13, 2012 (UTC)

The name is "Outfiter/9.6_Gnome" is that long?

If you mean "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAABAAAAASACAYAAABhrT9bAAAKP2lDQ1BJQ0MgcHJvZmlsZQAASEudlndQU9kXx", that is just what the spam filter gives me, it actually continues, it is binary png data encoded in base64. I haven't been able to update this since 2 days ago (the day of the 9.6 update) because of the spam filter, I tried editing via API with sysop credentials, the spam filter is blocking it, isn't there a way to override the spam filter on some edits having sysop access?

If there isn't then I ask this: if not the name but the content string is too long I might just add spaces, after how many characters the string becomes "too long"?

Thanks --Daniel Letalis (talk) 08:41, July 13, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, this is fixable on javascript level with the "spaces" method I thought about, it will probably reduce compression but no other option

Ghostbusters Wiki - Image
When I tried to edit an article, I got the spam protection filter alert because of a png image that was pre-existing on the article before I edited it. This is in error, the image was added by the chief Admin of the page. I think this might have been a glitch from the recent wiki update to 1.19. Please lift this filter.

Message: "The page you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a blacklisted link or pagename.

The following link, text or pagename is what triggered our spam filter: VampiricAlienGhostStationinSpacebustersepisodeCollage"

Article: "Spacebusters" article Mrmichaelt (talk) 07:24, July 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I tested the article. Once I removed this specific image, the edit went through. Seems like the filter is unjustly flagging all images with super long titles. Any way to fix that? Mrmichaelt (talk) 07:44, July 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * I played a hunch and renamed the image file to a shorter name and the edit went through for the Spacebusters article. So seems like the filter needed to be adjusted. Mrmichaelt (talk) 07:54, July 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * You're right. The File name was too long. -- Austin (Talk) 12:11, July 11, 2012 (UTC)

Mediawiki:Common.css nasty issue
spam filter is considering spam my css code in w:c:tibia:Mediawiki:Common.css or any other file where I need it to be. I'm an admin, and this is happening even editing a file that only admins can edit(Mediawiki:Common.css). This is my code, I have many of these on several pages besides the one I want to use on common.css, I know I could create a png with all of them but is that really necessary?

I ask again, is there a way to override spam filter on some of my edits being an admin on my wiki?

(code removed for spacing issues on this page --  Random Time )

--Daniel Letalis (talk) 11:03, July 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * I've placed this code at w:c:tibia:MediaWiki:Outfiter.css
 * You can import it onto your common.css using the code Whilst there is a way for admins to whitelist URLs that need to be added to their wiki, I don't think this is the case with your problem, as it doesn't trip a blacklisted URL  - feel free to contact a VSTF member here if you wish to change this code. --  Random  Time  15:59, July 13, 2012 (UTC)
