The spam issue

Well, I'm beginning to see it happen; the bots appear to be creating user pages. Not too different from other spam pages, but still contain links I won't dare click.

Also, lots of the normal spam pages have not been deleted for a long amount of time; they're beginning to pile up, I'd assume.

I could have sworn that a couple of months ago, someone was deleting the spam pages and the bot accounts that were creating them...

Am I just over-thinking the situation? Because for all I know, I'm just over-estimating the amount of spam pages.

Is there a way to combat this or do we just have to deal with it for now?

Yeah, I'm pretty annoyed about that too. Thank goodness none of those pages actually link to proper pages, as far as I know.

I know that Arcorann, one of our admins, has done deleting sprees before, but that hasn't happened in a while. According to his user page, he's been frequenting Touhou Wiki more often, so we might want to send him a message there. I can't think of any other options that will get rid of those pages, unfortunately, unless we can figure out how to promote ourselves to admins.

The great wiki back-up

Yeah... about that, I sent a PM to rintaun, and according to him, the old data should migrate to the new servers. So I didn't really need to do all of this. Sorry guys!

\(＾o＾)/

So, I mentioned this on the forums, so I might has well place it here as well.

I'm backing up as much pages as I can to prepare for the server transfer. Right now, medley and song pages are a priority. This will be followed with inactive (useful) user pages.

The plan for the user pages is to PM the data from their user page to the actual user on the forums/new forums.

Great news: All pages have been backed up and are mostly ready for transfer! Dang it Unicode...

Here's the checklist:-

• [X]Medleys from 2007

• [X]Medleys from 2009
• [X]Medleys from 2010
• [X]Medleys from 2011
• [X]Medleys from 2012
• [X]Medleys from 2013
• [X]Medleys from 2014
• [X]Medleys Incomplete
• [X]Songs A-J
• [X]Songs K-Other
• [X]Lyrics pages
• [X]Series & Events
• [X]Templates & NavBoxes
• [X]User Pages

Let's Name the Medley Producers!

On the main page, there is a category for the Let's Name the Medley Producers! series. There are a few things I wanted to point out for the Let's Name the Medley Producers! page.

Let's Name the Medley Producers! is less of a medley, and more of a song. It's a song listing 500 medley composers who have uploaded a medley to NND, as of December 18, 2014, the upload date.

The video is located at http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm25146682 . I don't know how the page would be set up. We could simply link to categories we have from a composer's name.
