           Summary: Spam Blacklist undoes good faith edits
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: shell
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Spam Blacklist
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


While editing anonymously, I had tried to add an edit using the following site
as source "http://www.associatedcontent.com " as it was the first Google hit
for the information I wanted.  This website caused the SPAM blacklist to engage
and completely destroy my edit.  As I was using an alternate browser (IE 6 or
7) my entire edit was lost.  

Since my edit was in good faith, and this is, in all likelihood, happening
often, the Spam Blacklist should be modified to return a Preview rather than
eliminating the POSTED material entirely.
