Please consult with the wiki manager before creating or editing abuse filters for a particular wiki.
For particular spam making the rounds, bring it up to the Gamepedia team in the private Discord channel so the global abuse filters can be tweaked.
When making edits to remove spam/vandalism, include a link in the edit summary that points to this Help wiki page. This helps users to understand what GRASP is.
