Comment (by donncha):

 This is something Photomatt and Markr wanted. Markr brought it up in
 conversation with a blogger who is getting lots of stupid comments from
 one particular user. He added that person's email address or IP into the
 blacklist expecting the comments to be deleted but instead he had to read
 the comments in the Akismet spam page and delete them.

 They weren't submitted to Akismet so the spam page is probably the wrong
 page for these comments to be left in.

 This is a result of confusion over what the blacklist does. Is it a spam
 list or stupid list? :)
