Bug ID: 57059
Summary: Add "revert and report as spam" button
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Page editing
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
In addition to the "revert" button, there should be a "revert and report as
spam" button. When you hit it, the edit will be reverted and a dialog will open
up saying, e.g., "The edit has been reverted and url http://foo.com has been
added to the spam blacklist and reported to SpamWiki. Do you wish to also block
Megaspammer indefinitely and report his IP address to SpamWiki?"
The spam reports will go to a central repository that tracks reports and, if
someone is spamming across multiple wikis, adds the urls and IPs to its
blacklists. Wikis can poll to obtain this data. If someone finds that they or
their URLs have been wrongly accused, they can appeal and get it lifted, and
the false reporters can be blacklisted from filing further reports. The
SpamWiki will not make public which IPs are associated with which edits, but
that data will be stored in its database for use by a small handful of
authorized users in investigating disputed spamming reports.
