What we do

Undisclosed paid editing and other types of (self-)promotion are a form of POV-pushing with the goal of promoting or publicising an entity (usually people, companies, or products) for the purposes of marketing, "reputation management", or search-engine optimisation.

Regularly, these efforts span across multiple Wikimedia projects; historically, lack of coordination has lead to inefficient processes with duplicated efforts across individual projects. Wikiproject Antispam is intended to provide a hub for coordination in cross-wiki spam cases. The basic process is:

  • investigate the suspected accounts
  • file sockpuppet investigations or CheckUser requests where needed
  • block the accounts
  • alert the communities of all affected wikis and revert or delete the content where possible
  • monitor for returning accounts long-term

What we cannot handle:

  • promotional spam which involves only one wiki: please contact local administrators
  • spambots and cross-wiki vandalism: Please make reports at Steward requests/Global
  • severe harassment: please contact Trust and Safety
