Merge with Social networking spam

edit

Should this be merged with social networking spam? They seem to cover the same topic. JitteryOwl (talk) 22:06, 30 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Did a review of both pages, and determined a merge was necessary. Because social spam is the more general topic, which social networking spam is a subset of, I copied over the relavent information from the social networking spam page, that hadn't yet been covered, and merged them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jbabiarz (talkcontribs) 18:54, 12 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Rise in social spam

There are now reliable sources indicating a big jump in social spam this year. "Social Media Spam Up 355%" (in first half of 2013) [1] And many news reports of big companies caught doing it. Samsung: [2] Blackberry: [3] 19 companies in New York caught: [4] --John Nagle (talk) 18:39, 27 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to 3 external links on Social spam. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

 N An editor has determined that the edit contains an error somewhere. Please follow the instructions below and mark the |checked= to true

  • If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.
  • If you found an error with any archives or the URLs themselves, you can fix them with this tool.
