Indeed, there are at best 5-7 total 'attack sites'. So few, that they could,
in fact, be enumerated in very short list.

Why not just list them at BADSITES as a "do not link list"? If the
*community* agrees on an entry, hey, cool, don't link it. If not, well, the
community has decided, right? Unless very small minorities on-wiki get to
decide they know better than everyone else and try to policy wonk or game
their way to their ends. But that would be wrong, no? ;)
