Codex page spammed?

I have a Buddypress 1.02 setup so I was looking at documentation for tips on upgrade path.

On the below page I realized a link to an irrelevant (and seemingly unresolving) a website.

http://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/upgrading-a-buddypress-1-0-theme-for-buddypress-1-1/

(search on page for “twitter aps”).

This looks as though somebody planted it in for SEO purposes.

It is possible there is more.

Thought you guys would like to know.

Fixed but it would be good for an admin to go and see who made the change in the first place. Well, assuming whatever wiki the site is using actually maintains that information.

I also found a spam link in the codex and deleted it.

Spammers ruin everything.

Have seen this before. Not sure how it’s done, revision history appears to be misleading. I’ve sent a message to Andy Peatling as a heads-up.
