Wikipedia acting up

edit

Wikipedia insists examiner DOT com is on its Spam blacklist. The only problem is that is not on the blacklist. Why can't I save the link properly? Curro2 (talk) 02:06, 28 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Weird, I did not see it in the list. I find this pre-emptive block extremely annoying. It's one thing to notify users that sources are undesired but blocking a news site altogether feels obstructive. Curro2 (talk) 02:30, 28 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
Well it is this line: (?<=[/@.])examiner\.com(?:[:/?\x{23}]|$). And if you can only find the information from the examiner it really shouldn't be included anyways. The examiner is not a news site and has absolutely no oversight. Anyone can say anything they want on there. If you want to try to get it unlisted you can try MediaWiki talk:Spam-blacklist#Proposed removals but I really wouldn't bank on it happening. --Stabila711 (talk) 02:35, 28 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
