1107:- I was invited here by RfC bot. I know nothing about Spamcop. That said, it seems to me that the service is "Spamcop;" the website is "spamcop.net." The article needs an infobox with the url in it. Absent the userbox, SteveT's suggestion about including the url earl on in the lede makes sense. In fact, the url should probably be mentioned early in the lede whether or not it is included in an infobox.
81:
556:
285:
1085:, I have concluded that rather than undoing the edit, it would be better to further edit the article to meet the latest editor's desire to have it mentioned more prominently (earlier) that spamcop.net is the service being discussed (especially as distinguished from spamcop.com). I shall wait until about 18 November, 2012 to do this for more comments before I proceed.
1208:
without a resolution to the problem that led to the first edit: "When I read this article it took quite a wile to figure out if .net or .com was the 'good' domain." Would someone else be willing to give it a try without violating the latest editor's concern? Perhaps a infobox that includes the URL, as suggested, above, by
Ebikguy?

This talk page is a real mess. Most messages are not signed and are inserted in random order. I have started trying to reorganize this page by breaking it up into subjects and referencing signatures by using the history file. This project will take some time which I have currently run out of. But
1242:
Reason: SpamCop makes no attempt to find the "sender" of the spam in the sense of the individual/ e-mail address of the sender, because its analysis relies on the internet headers of the spam and the sender can not be reliably determined from the headers. Instead, it looks for an IP address outside
989:
I have finished my work of reorganization. I hope no one will find any objection to my work. There has been no edits to the text itself. The only changes have been to add headers and signatures and to resort into standard
Knowledge order, oldest first, newest last. If anyone feels my choice of

Edit 528575802 02:53, 18 December 2012 by anonymous editor 150.101.222.216 undid both the original edit (518331812 at 14:48, 17 October 2012) and my re-edit (524130145 at 03:21, 21 November 2012 ) with the comment, "this is an advertising page...." I understand the point; however, we are left
1183:
Yikes, I did not realize I hadn't logged in when I completed the edit so it appears to be from 99.62.148.86 rather than from me (SteveT). Is there any way to "fix" the
Revision History so that it appears to be by me (as it was!)?
1058:
My personal preference would be to undo the edit (but I don't feel strongly enough or sufficiently experienced to actually perform the undo on my own without further feedback). What do others (especially the editor, 108.93.101.129)
1243:
the receiver's server network. It also makes no attempt to create any lists of websites, it only includes in its blacklist IP addresses that have delivered spam to reporters' (or their e-mail service providers') networks.
1295:, spam fighters and anti-spam services are notoriously prone to smear campaigns by spammers. To make sure we're not just repeating claims made by individual members of an astroturfing campaign, any controversy we cover

be covered by a reliable source unconnected with SpamCop. The only reference in the portion of the article I removed was to the SpamCop website, and even then it did not acknowledge the existence of any controversy.

1053:
The purported reason for the edit is "When I read this article it took quite a wile to figure out if .net or .com was the 'good' domain." But the distinction is made at end of the very first paragraph!
