Thank you both, these were great lists. I also made some new searches off of them (eg. Videri led me to "accounting" and "los angeles", and Swish gave me "free", which had a ton of garbage pages). I've used my psychic powers on the spammer, and ... [You must be logged in to view images.

Each of those has five hundred deleted pages, so just this year we've removed well over 1,500 spam pages from the wiki! "Arming the community" is working! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

![]() Nice work! I would like to know more.
Like why do these klandathu's keep attacking our website! Why dont all these websites get together and sue google? It sounds like it's all to exploit their exploitable SEO. | ||

When Google first started, every link to a webpage (ie. every "backlink") essentially meant one "vote" for that page to rank higher in Google's results. This was the "secret sauce" that let them beat Yahoo, Hotbot, etc. The spammer thinks that's still how Google works, and that adding links to their pages (on wikis) will increase their rank. But ... the guy's an idiot. Google has changed a lot since, and for one thing they consider the content of the backlinks. If you have a link to a golf page ... on a cat video website ... Google won't increase your rank (or will only do so a minuscule amount). Furthermore, Google knows what a wiki is, and that anyone can add links to it, so wiki links count even less than normal ones. That's what's so frustrating about this: the spammer is bad at SEO. At best all this spam (probably 2k+ pages on our wiki alone, and likely the same amount or more on other wikis) is barely helping their SEO, and it's entirely possible it's not helping at all (because none of these wikis are about the same topics as the spam pages). However, the spammer thinks it's helping, so they keep making a mess for us.
