[edit] Spam links
There are more words in the large amount of spam links to this article, than words in the article itself. I've removed the obvious ones, but a few more need checking out AND the article needs expanding. Escaper7 16:19, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
- Good cleanup job, compared to the 20+ spam links there was in August. I've checked and deleted the two last remaining links: both were only homepages (not direct links to relevant content) of an internet radio, and a message board site. -- 62.147.36.154 03:37, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Please do not add your commercial, irrelevant or personal spam links to this article. Several have been removed in accordance with Wikipedia's policy on external links SEE:Wikipedia:External links. Make sure you have read this if you are considering adding links, but in any case, a link should clearly relate to the CONTENT of the article, and not be added for the sake of it... this is conseidered as vandalism. Thanks. Escaper7 10:52, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
- My two cents: for dealing with spammers, putting a warning on the talk page is useless. On heavily spammed articles such as music genres, you need to put a big HTML comment explaining the ground rules to any wannabe spammer: anybody trying to edit this section will see it, it informs the innocent editors and removes plausible deniability from the spammers. For an example, please see the HTML comment I just inserted in the current article (diff). -- 62.147.36.154 03:37, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
