This site appears to be a blogging platform which hosts user-generated content. I can see no realistic likelihood of it being used as a reliable source. One particular page on the site is being repeatedly (and ineptly) spammed into bed-related articles by a mixture of IPs and throwaway accounts: e.g. on Murphy bed [1], [2], [3], [4], Daybed [5], [6], Sofa bed [7], Trundle bed [8], etc. The problem could probably also be solved by a mixture of rangeblocks and page protection, but this seems like a cleaner solution.

@Wham2001:   Added to MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist, since this is more likely to be a coordinated spam campaign than a case of different individuals inadvertently linking the website. Thanks for reporting this. — Newslinger talk 07:56, 7 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
