 * okay, Will do. Abigor (talk) 06:09, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

User:Bwritings
I have now welcomed the user, by the edits it is clear that there is a human behind the actions, I also restored to instance that the edits couldn't really be objectionable, check User talk:Bwritings and see if you wish to add some more information... --Panic (talk) 22:10, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Of course there is a human - that doesn't mean they aren't spamming. I've blocked that user and nominated two pages for deletion since they appear to be grabbing content elsewhere to provide an excuse for adding promotional links. There may also be copyright concerns. &mdash; Mike.lifeguard &#124; talk 22:55, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
 * There is sufficient latitude to the definition of spam to make it cover most unproductive (but contributive) edits, not only those from commercial sites or users motivated from self interest. What distinguishes these edits is that the editor did confine them to the page's topic and established structure. I would classify them more as a lack of understanding than an attempt to really spam the project. The user hadn't been welcomed into the project and in two instances the edits were inside what is acceptable content addition. As for the other problems I've now noticed the VFD so lets see how it goes (I did spell checking and a quick reading of the pages)... --Panic (talk) 01:58, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Placing external links to a commercional site on more that 11 places on 3 wiki's within a hour is spam to me. I have noticed that spammers get more smart and will try to do there best to get the link in a page and try to keep it there. I have even seen spammers that places a link, and marked them as patrolled with a other account.  Huib   talk  02:03, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

WCI 2011 : Accelerating Wikibooks : Would like to discuss!
Hello!

I will be delivering a Talk at the Wikimedia Conference India 2011 on the topic of "Accelerating Wikibooks".

Over the next few days, I aim to make the proposal more and more wholesome and relevant. I'd like to discuss with you about the proposal and hope you can recommend me a few names on Wikibooks with whom I can discuss this.

I'd be very happy if you could discuss the proposal at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/User:Thewinster/Accelerating_Wikibooks
