Bug ID: 53939
Summary: Testing spam blacklist prior to abuse filters
Product: Wikimedia
Version: wmf-deployment
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General/Unknown
Assignee: [email protected]

Mobile Platform: ---
At this moment, we are getting spambots that are spamming blacklisted domain
names, however, they are hitting the AbuseFilters first. This means that we
are getting a lot of abuse reports to wade through (sloooooow process) only to
find that domain is blacklisted and there is no need to further manage the
domain.
I am wondering whether it is possible to run the checks against the global spam
blacklist prior to running the abuse filter checks.
I understand that this will mean that I may miss seeing that an account is
spamming a blacklisted url, however, I can live with that. Spambots do not
tend to offer more than the one spam url.
