 Spam hunter! 

Hi A.B.  Thanks for all the reports and for all the work you do on finding new spammed domains.  I am impressed by your last report on WT:WPSPAM.

I have a question and a suggestion, though.  The question: when you report, could you for IPs that spam wikipedia include the range where that IP is in (preferably the CIDR).  That makes it easier to blacklist IPs on COIBot (not that it is a trouble for me to find them).  The suggestion, you might be interested in the IRC channels Link additions on en.wikipedia and edits on small wikipedia.  The former runs a linkwatcher, shadowbot, COIBot etc.  On the latter normally also a linkwatcher is active (but it is down at the moment), as are some other watching bots (also COIBot is there).  We also have some other nifty tools (though again, one that you might be very interested in is also down at the moment).  If you'd like to speak to us, we talk in the talk channel (we also command the bots there).

Hope to see you there, but in any case, see you around, happy editing, and happy hunting!   T C "
