Blacklist or whitelist requests

I tried to post a mirror link for patches but the Spam Filter blocked http:// dl.strangled.net, strangled.net is part of the subdomain service freedns.afraid.org. Please remove the toplevel domain from the Spam Filter and only block certain subdomains if necessary. --Strangled (talk) 12:33, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

I get "Server not found" for http://dl.strangled.net --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 8:47 PM PST 4 Oct 2009

I was editing the [Podcasting] trying to had a new podcast call the Guild Chat Podcast and there website http://www.guild-chat.com/ was blocked. If you could remove that would be great. --mattyankees (talk) 8:38, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

Should be allowed now. --PcjWowpedia wiki manager (TDrop me a line!•C207,729 contributions and counting) 20:53, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

Hmmm I wonder why that was blocked anyway... --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 8:56 PM PST 4 Oct 2009

Nevermind, it looks like the Wikia central blacklist filters for some general domain keywords, like "chat". --Beware the sneaky smile! Fandyllic (talk · contr) 8:58 PM PST 4 Oct 2009

I tried to edit the Server:Staghelm US page, but the pre-existing URL www.gnomeland-security.net is triggering the spam filter. The site seems to be OK; can you please add it to the whitelist? Dougmacd (talk) 18:05, December 11, 2009 (UTC)dougmacd

Fixed. --PcjWowpedia wiki manager (TDrop me a line!•C207,729 contributions and counting) 19:36, December 11, 2009 (UTC)

I tried to edit the Server:Eldre'Thalas_US page to add a guild, but a link which was already published to the page is setting off the spam filter. Please whitelist "http://ruin .abits .biz" as it looks totally valid as the website of the guild it's supposed to be. Thank you --Goobenix (talk) 23:07, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

I was attempting to edit Server:Argent Dawn US to add a guild, but a preexisting broken link was setting off the spam filter. The link is not complete/valid - http : / / houseo , but I was unable to find it in the page.Avandor (talk) 13:18, January 23, 2010 (UTC)
