I found this page, that was put on the spam black list by Essjay with the comment: "contains personal information about Wikipedians: being used to stalk and harass them". http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?titl...22&oldid=332930

So I went and had a look at it:

http://doubleblue.info/

Whilst there is a bit of a conspiracy theory element, alleging bias and a minor cabal that may not exist, I don't see how the site needs to be added to the spam blacklist. For starters, its not actually spam. Adding something to the spam blacklist seems like a good way to advertise it.

What does everyone think of this?
