Arrow SPAM in Wiki

Good afternoon Wiki admins,

Please check your PMs for a message regarding SPAM found in the Wiki.

At your convenience, please clarify:
  • The spam-reporting procedure you prefer wiki-users use,
  • Whether wiki-users who find spammed pages should:
    • Either, undo/revert the spammed page to its previous-history state
    • Or, leave it untouched for your examination/response.

If I missed these answers in other posts, or in the wiki forum's stickies, I apologize.

Thanks in advance,

QPD, I got your email and apparently my attempt to roll back the article using the browser on my smartphone was unsuccessful, so thanks to Bill for taking care of it. Yes, the spammer has now been blocked from editing the Wiki.

In the future, just send me a PM to let me know what's going on. Feel free to roll back the article, but let me know if you do.

Good evening sir,

Please check your PMs for two messages (one on May 24, one on June 6) listing three more possible SPAM Wiki articles. Since each appears to have been created as SPAM (instead of SPAMming a previously valid article), a roll-back option does not seem possible at this point.

Thank you for your time and consideration,
