Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Triggered by -business-review\.com\b on the local blacklist

Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—^{cyberbot II}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 00:03, 4 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Blacklisted Links Found on Foster's Group[edit]

Cyberbot II has detected links on Foster's Group which have been added to the blacklist, either globally or locally. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed or are highly inappropriate for Wikipedia. The addition will be logged at one of these locations: local or global If you believe the specific link should be exempt from the blacklist, you may request that it is white-listed. Alternatively, you may request that the link is removed from or altered on the blacklist locally or globally. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. Please do not remove the tag until the issue is resolved. You may set the invisible parameter to "true" whilst requests to white-list are being processed. Should you require any help with this process, please ask at the help desk.

ProposedMerger[edit]

This and Carlton_&_United_Breweries are the same company (and separate articles about the company). The company was renamed. Should be redirected after merge — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.244.38.40 (talk) 07:20, 1 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Clearly distinct companies. Hamienet (talk) 23:38, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support This is the same company and I think we can just do a simple merger where we include the history of when the company was renamed as a section of the original article. If no additional comments are made, I will conduct the merge a week from today - Karthanitesh (talk) 02:57, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

While I agree that both of these pages, I am not sure what the correct procedure is. Carlton & United Breweries existed longer than Foster's Group and has more historical value so should we merge the other way (this page into Carlton & United Breweries?). Karthanitesh (talk) 03:02, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose The CUB page is reasonable by itself and the Foster's Group page is reasonable. I would be tempted to create a new (smallish) section on the Fosters page called CUB talking a little about the history of CUB and purchase by Fosters and then add a {{main|Carlton_%26_United_Breweries}} hatnote.

Closing given the uncontested objections and no support; no objection from me to adding a section though. Klbrain (talk) 10:57, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
