Thanks for the invitation to comment. I only noticed this because of the COI tools. The last two live links I could see using insource search and deleted were not normal references but external links used as if they were, on user pages; but they were definitely typical SEO style spam. The tools also demonstrated that two common domains were spammed by multiple accounts using the same techniques, so behavioral evidence is strong. —PaleoNeonate – 00:08, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
