Re: [webkit-dev] Spam and indexing
I posted a tool that I used for this today to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=197537. Probably a lot to improve, but it works. - Alexey > 2 мая 2019 г., в 14:32, Darin Adler написал(а): > > Should we post instructions somewhere for people dealing with spam?

Re: [webkit-dev] Spam and indexing
Should we post instructions somewhere for people dealing with spam? I believe the instructions are: 1) Look up the email address of the account that posted the spam and disable it first, so spammers don’t get email about other steps. Do this by clicking on Administration, Users, finding the user and putting the word “Spam” into the disable text. 2) Move any spam bugs into the Spam component. 3) Mark any spam comments as Private and also add the tag “spam”. But maybe there’s more to it than that. For example, can someone without administration privileges do the right thing? Should we make a small tool to make this easier to do correctly? I like the idea of having instructions so this isn’t oral tradition. — Darin ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
Re: [webkit-dev] Spam and indexing
One change that I'm going to make is to mark spam comments as private instead of simply tagging. That way, bugs will look cleaner, and there will be no doubt about whether search engines index hidden comments or not. I'll also mark old spam comments as private. I think that this will generate e-mail notifications, so apologies for the upcoming e-mail storm. These should be possible to delete all at once in most e-mail clients. - Alexey ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
