Out Equal block
Had to revert the Out Equal block - they're a legit LGBT org developing their article. :) Let's make sure we leave sandbox work in place and only revert non-LGBT spamming.  One heads up is that we do allow more promotional content on LGBT projects than enWP - so that type of outside linking - to some extent - is allowed.  In any case - I would rather work with editors than block them.  May have been a part of the bot one - but just a heads up to be extra mindful of those accounts.  :)  --Gregory Varnum (WikiGregory), Lead Admin 16:36, March 2, 2012 (EST)
 * Alrighty! That was part of it - and I'll drop by and leave them a lote. B r y  ce SPEAK!! 16:37, March 2, 2012 (EST)
 * Sounds good. I suspect folks will reasonably comfortable with our growing pains/mistakes while we work out the kinks, get everyone trained, etc.  :)   --Gregory Varnum (WikiGregory), Lead Admin 17:15, March 2, 2012 (EST)

Imports
Also, be warned, that at this point the safest way to import is not to include templates. Sometimes the new revisions overwrite existing edits made on WikiQueer - which are usually done to change wording from WP to WQ and such. The templates that were changed from the MLK page import show up as unreviewed - might want to double check just to make sure they didn't override relevant template changes. These are basically reasons why we don't let editors import pages - they can haven unintended consequences that admin-level access is needed to tidy up. Also, be warned the last spam policy prevented any edits - so had to disable. That said - I really appreciate the enthusiasm and efforts to combat spam!!! Keep up the good work. :) --gregvarnum 00:11, March 3, 2012 (EST)

 * Somewhat related - you may find this helpful when there's reasonable base content on enWP we can work from: WPT  --Gregory Varnum (WikiGregory), Lead Admin 20:30, March 3, 2012 (EST)

Spam Master?
I'm talking with some developers about how to step up the war against SPAMmers - last night's wave irked me more than usual. Suggestions, as always, are welcome. One idea has been to begin setting up a WikiProject for SPAM fighting to help document and organize strategies over the long-haul. Interested in being the lead on that Project and the wiki's first Spam Master - or whatever title we settle on. :) --gregvarnum 06:57, March 28, 2012 (EST)
