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

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.

Here's the checklist:

• [X]Medleys from 2007
• [X]Medleys from 2008
• [X]Medleys from 2009
• [X]Medleys from 2010
• [X]Medleys from 2011
• [ ]Medleys from 2012
• [X]Medleys from 2013
• [X]Medleys from 2014
• [X]Medleys Incomplete
• [X]Songs A-J
• [ ]Songs K-Other
• [X]Lyrics pages
• [X]Series & Events
• [X]Templates & NavBoxes
• [ ]Inactive User Pages
