While submitting an article edit just now, I was suprised to be warned that the page I was submitted contained a blacklisted URL. After reading the whole page (please make the term that was found more prominent!) I discovered that it had in fact blocked <code>overflow:auto;height</code>, part of an attempt to tame a 1280x1024-screen-filling References section. Obviously, this should not have triggered a spam alert. It could do with removal from the blacklist. This isn't critical as I was able to move the <code>height</code> declaration in front of <code>overflow</code> and submit as normal, but it's still worth sorting out IMO. This occured under MediaWiki 1.8alpha (r16005), if that is actually relevant. ;-)
This is a configuration setting. You can set it as you like. Many spammers use this phrase, therefore it is recommended to use this setting and find other ways to do that.
If I can switch the words around, surely the spammers can too...but then it's not my call.
