#
[tantek]4 lol citation needed for TrackBack spam šŸ¤¦
#
aaronpk i'm tempted to link to https://www.google.com/search?q=trackback+spam as the citation šŸ˜‚
#
[tantek]4 lolwut https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sping
#
aaronpk i just found fthat lol
#
aaronpk that seems like a good enough citation
#
aaronpk we'll see if it sticks
#
[tantek]4 literally first time I have heard that phrase, and I worked at Technorati
#
aaronpk hah
#
[tantek]4 I don't think Google searches are acceptable as citations
#
[tantek]4 they're not stable/verifiable
#
aaronpk i know lol
#
aaronpk that Sping article should probably get rewritten or merged with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spam_in_blogs
#
aaronpk heh "The term was popularized by David Sifry from Technorati in his February 2006 State of the Blogosphere report"
#
[tantek]4 ok that "sping" article is BS, or rather, smells like someone making something up and trying to make it a "thing".
#
aaronpk wait, the 2006 article doesn't even mention "sping" other than one of the tags http://www.sifry.com/alerts/2006/08/state-of-the-blogosphere-august-2006
#
Loqi [[Webmention]] https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Webmention&diff=1107555737&oldid=prev Aaronpk: add link to wikipedia page on trackback spam
#
[tantek]4 huh well there it is, and I have no recollection of seeing it before: http://www.sifry.com/alerts/2006/02/state-of-the-blogosphere-february-2006-part-1-on-blogosphere-growth

@kevinmarks ā†©ļø Not sure if either of those make sense as human readable HTML. You could embed models in an h-entry that describes them, like a photo post. https://indieweb.org/photo Are you looking for a catalogue model? (twitter.com/_/status/1564720835067318273)
