[09:41] <mpt> cjwatson, wgrant, hi, is anyone tending answers.launchpad.net/launchpad spam reports lately? There are a few open since last month, and conversely with a couple recent ones the spam seems to have been deleted without reference to the report.
[09:43] <cjwatson> mpt: The latter is unsurprising since there's considerable automation.
[09:43] <cjwatson> mpt: We've been dealing with some of the others, but the gaps are usually where we need to do something non-trivial (e.g. remember how list spam deletion works, implement sprint deletion, ...)
[09:44] <mpt> ah ok
[09:50] <wgrant> mpt: Do also avoid quoting significant amounts of spam when reporting it
[09:50] <wgrant> The aggressive automatic cleanup whitelists certain accounts, but it's still not good.
[09:51] <mpt> wgrant, oh, I didn’t know. I was copying only a few words just in case, but now I know that’s how it works, I’ll stop doing that altogether.
[09:53] <wgrant> mpt: the spammers will happily burn thousands of accounts per day. we need to be extremely aggressive to prevent it from going crazy, including minimising occurence of text in search engines
[09:54] <mpt> understood
[14:35] <Odd_Bloke> There's currently an enormous powerpc queue; any ideas why we (AFAICT) don't have anything building stuff from it?
[14:40] <wgrant> Odd_Bloke: Fallout from the zesty powerpc removal. Fixed.
[14:44] <Odd_Bloke> wgrant: Thanks!
