So we can name sites in article space like antisocialmedia.net but can't have the article link to them? Can someone explain to how this makes any sense at all? Oh, yes that one saved click is really going to make it less harassing. This is in many ways the worst possible combination. We are sacrificing the integrity of article space for an at best marginal benefit.
I'd suggest this one is not a problem in practice - we already don't put in http:// links to shock sites, just listing the address in plain text.
The problem that brought about the BADSITES arbitration was that people were deleting the *name* antisocialmedia.net from [[Judd Bagley]] under "no personal attacks." That is, community policies interfering with encyclopedic coverage.
