I want to edit the page for Richard Thompson, but have been blocked because h*tp://hometown.aol.co.uk is somehow considered spam, why I have no idea.  The above page is certainly legitimate. Tvccs 18:08, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Well, creating a new section since I'm not sure where to put this comment... perhaps we should also start logging additions to the spam whitelist, similar to how it's done on Meta? This would make it easier to locate the admin who placed the site on the whitelist, once it gets bigger, if needed, and also document when the site was added and for what reason, without having to look through the history. Thoughts? Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 14:11, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
