Forum move project: Replacing links to illegal scanlation sites from profile pages

[Antvasima]

As I think that I mentioned earlier in this thread, if the links to certain scanlation sites are broken, due to the sites in question shutting down, I would greatly appreciate if you can find replacement images from other scanlation sites when possible, meaning when the page and chapter numbers are mentioned in the image link titles.

 

[DxGenesis]

Also, I noticed Speed-o'-Sound Sonic, Metal Knight and Saitama have links to ********, Mangatown, Galaxyheavyblow and Mymangaonline. Are any of those apart from Mangatown illegal too?

 

[Antvasima]

@DxGenesis

All links to scanlation sites should preferably be replaced, although I do not know what Galaxyheavyblow is.

 

[DxGenesis]

Galaxyheavyblow is ONE's original site. As I learned 30 seconds ago. So I don't think its illegal. I'll edit out all the other ones from Sonic and Metal Knight but will need unlocking for Saitama.

 

[Antvasima]

I unlocked the Saitama page. Tell me here when you are done.

 

[Zaratthustra]

Finished formatting the profiles and Genesis seems to have done the other part. I guess it's done now.

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

My section is done.

 

[DxGenesis]

Saitama is done.

The only ones left that I know of are:
Golden Darkness
Judar
Black (To Love-Ru)
Itachi Uchiha

All of which have illegal broken links meaning someone has to search for replacements.

 

[Zaratthustra]

I will do them.

 

[ShadowWhoWalks]

Itachi's illegal links can be replaced by the ones here:

ShrekAlmighty/SANDBOX

vsbattles.fandom.com

Also, will do Black (To Love-Ru).

 

[Zaratthustra]

Itachi's illegal links can be replaced by the ones here:

ShrekAlmighty/SANDBOX

vsbattles.fandom.com

Also, will do Black (To Love-Ru).

I've already changed 3 links from Itachi (was something to find a site with naruto that still works) but your linked sandbox saved a lot of time. Thanks

 

[ShadowWhoWalks]

Done with Black

 

[DxGenesis]

I also found:
Gid Lucione Deviluke
Nemesis (To Love-Ru)
Rin Kujou
Oshizu Murasame...

 

[Zaratthustra]

Finished Judar...but then saw what Genesis posted...sigh.

 

[ShadowWhoWalks]

Sigh. Doing:
Gid Lucione Deviluke & Nemesis (To Love-Ru)

 

[Zaratthustra]

I finished the other two, do you need help with Gid or Nemesis?

@ShadowWhoWalks

 

[ShadowWhoWalks]

You can start with Nemesis, will take some time to track a scan for Gid. (edit found scan) ((edit 2 finished with Gid))

Broken blogspot links is probably something that should get resolved by supporters of verses.

 

[Zaratthustra]

I finished Nemesis.

 

[DxGenesis]

Do we call this done now that the bulk of it is done? Or do I keep posting here any pages with strange links I find? Because there certainly are more.

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

Or do I keep posting here any pages with strange links I find?

If all the pages that go to illegal scanlation sites (the links that actually block us from editing profiles due to the spam filter) are now removed I would prefer to call the project a done deal and potentially open another thread for what you describe.

@AKM sama , @Antvasima , is there anything more to be done here? From what I understand all the profiles and pages listed in the OP are tackled.

 

[DxGenesis]

Well, not all illegal links are removed, that's what I meant. The list is done but I've seen others laying around. So I wanted to know if I just keep reporting all of them here or do something else.

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I'm specifically reffering to the links that cause the spam filter to kick in. Can the profiles you're discovering be edited without activating the spam filter?

 

[DxGenesis]

I thought all triggered the spam filter. How do you tell which do and which don't?

 

[Dargoo_Faust]

I thought all triggered the spam filter. How do you tell which do and which don't?

The ones that triggered the spam filter were the ones AKM put in the OP. We're able to tell since we know what the spam filter blocks out. So if it's not on any of the domains listed on the OP it's probably not triggering the filter.

If you still aren't sure if it's triggering the spam filter or not, try doing a minor edit (maybe fixing a spelling error or changing the wording on a part of the bio) on the page. If the edit isn't blocked the page is fine.

 

[DxGenesis]

Oh ok. Then they are probably nothing important for now and this can be concluded.

 

[Antvasima]

Do we call this done now that the bulk of it is done? Or do I keep posting here any pages with strange links I find? Because there certainly are more.

I would personally much prefer if we continue with any more pages to illegal scanlation sites that you find, as the lists that we were sent are not complete. They only covered the sites that the SOAP member in question knew about.

You can use our external links search function to find more of them.

 

[DxGenesis]

I'll just put them in another pastebin to not fill this thread.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you.

Remember that only the main wiki pages and sandboxes are relevant to list right now.

 

[AKM sama]

Thank you very much to all those who have helped out with this.

 

[Antvasima]

Yes, big thanks to everybody.

I think this is finally all of it. Well, other than a couple dozen talk pages I stopped keeping track of and obviously the blogs and threads which don't count.

No idea if any of this triggers or does not trigger the algorithm.

Approximate number of unique links in each page inside parentheses.

[ShadowWhoWalks]

Tried to copy some of the links to my sandbox and can confirm that they trigger the filter.
They should be pretty simple to replace with the exception of Firephoenixearl's page (436 links!); it would be easier to simply delete the links, and he can refer to history if he wants them as a reference.

I am replacing the links starting from the upper portion (skipping the Firephoenixearl's part of course).

 

[Antvasima]

@DxGenesis and @ShadowWhoWalks

Thank you very much for all of your help. Are any other volunteers willing to help Shadow divide the burden of the remaining revisions?

 

[Antvasima]

Also, @Firephoenixearl , please read the following post: https://vsbattles.com/threads/forum...-sites-from-profile-pages.107785/post-3340513

 

[Antvasima]

Btw: I have asked our system manager to try to find a workable solution that allows us to copy and paste long link lists with them being automatically featured in the original format.

 

[DxGenesis]

I'll work on those that have 3 links or less.

 

[Antvasima]

Thank you.

 

[Firephoenixearl]

What page we talking about here? Is it my sandbox?

 

[Zaratthustra]

I will do a part of them, already did Sasaki from RoR.

 

[Zaratthustra]

Yes, your sandbox has 436 of illegal links, so you should correct it by uploading it on legal sites like for example Imgur.

Edit. I see, I posted this a minute later than what you said. Then I guess it can be deleted. If Ant is not against it I can delete it myself whenever you want if you need to save it or the like.
