Finally, something that can search for spam acrossall 700 or so Wikimedia projects. It is licensed under theGNU General Public License version 3. A copy of the license is available athttp://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txtor in the JAR itself.

At the moment, 16 wikis are searched every 8.5 seconds. Hence, a one-site spamsearch takes about 6.5 minutes (in comparison, the toolserver spamsearch searches 57 wikis in about 2.5 minutes). This is a hard-coded limit - it tends to kill itself if the internet connection is overloaded - but you can tweak the values by editingthe source code andrecompiling.

System requirements

• A properly configuredJava Runtime EnvironmentJava Development Kit, version 1.5 or greater. Gohere to download one.
• A reasonably fast internet connection (tested on 256/64k, ping ~350ms).

Installation instructions

I need someone to host the JAR file. In the meantime, you can download the source (see below).

Running instructions

Open up acommand line interface andchange directory to the directory you saved the above JAR file. Enter the following command:

java Spamsearch example.com

... where example.com the sites spammed. Beware of case sensitivity on non-Windows filesystems. The results of the spamsearch, once complete, will be in the same directory with filename results.txt.

Source code and internals

Spamsearch usesWiki.java as the wiki interface. The other half ishere.

Bugs and problems

As I have given you the code,{{sofixit}}, then edit the source files on-wiki. If you can't (perhaps because of a lack of knowledge of Java, a JDK or effort), then file bug reports atUser talk:MER-C.
