Hello all, I don't know if it is possible but it would be a nice feature to have 2 '''MediaWiki:Spamprotectiontext''', one that shows up if the url is on the local [MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist] on a given wiki and one that is shown if the url is on the global one at Meta. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Spam_blacklist It would be possible then to link to the proper request-pages for removal then. Many thanks in advance, Elisabeth Anderl [[:wikt:is:Notandi:Spacebirdy]]
Is this technically difficult to do, or is it simply that nobody has bothered yet?
Product -> MeidaWiki extensions Component -> Spam blacklist
changed summary
At the moment is is impossible. The regular expressions of the configured blacklists are merged into one, and only then applied ("array_merge( $this->getLocalBlacklists(), $this->getSharedBlacklists() )". To make this possible, each regular expressions should get a source ID (I would suggest an int from 0 to number of configured lists -1) based on the configured blacklists, and from there this should be passed on. The coming to the user messaging, I could imagine that there is some message that can be used to add to the matching regular expression(s) (f.e. key 'spam-blacklist-hit-on-list-[123..n]'. It should allow for the location/URL of the list to be added to the message as a parameter. If the specific message does not exist, it should probably allow for a fallback to key 'spam-blacklist-hit' or something.
*** Bug 28243 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Adding the equivalent bug for title blacklist and the tracking bug for stewards: spam blacklist is heavily used for cross-wiki maintenance and not being able to get reports of false positives is a major hinderance. Also switching to "Normal" in analogy to Erik's bug 36940 because it's a proper bug, not a feature request; and restoring normal priority because it was lowered without reason (in a bulk bug change).
