           Summary: blacklist may become too big
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: any
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Spam Blacklist
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org

At meta (290KB) and at w:en (160KB) the sbl has got many many entries, so it
gets hard for some users to edit those pages. Some javascripts seem to fail
already on some user's machines.

One can think of many different work-arounds. One fast solution could be, to
use transcluded pages, s.t.

 example\.org
{{some transcluded page}}
 example\.com

where "some transcluded page" consists of only
 foo
 bar

will be treated by the extension as
 example\.org
 foo
 bar
 example\.com

The advantages would be:
* sbl gets arbitrarily smaller, so editing gets easier
* rendered sbl looks still the same, because transclusion works anyway
* admins may chose, whether they want to use that feature (i.e. downward
compatibility!)
* doesn't need much programming on sbl extension
