[edit]

Hello, it's me, EpicWikipedian. I would like to suggest a change to this system message, because it often also appears when removing a large amount of information but the edit is constructive, as well. The message should be changed to:

{{edit filter warning
|filter   = 30
|action   = warn
|friendly = yes
|text     = <big>'''Warning'''</big>: An automated filter has identified this edit as removing a large amount of content. While some material on Wikipedia should be removed, such as [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandalism]] and [[Wikipedia:BLP|false or libelous information]], we discourage removal of content without a valid reason. If you believe that your removal is constructive, please go to the bottom of this page and press 'Save page' to continue (be sure to enter an [[help:edit summary|edit summary]] if you have not done so already). If you did not remove a large amount of content, and you believe that this edit is constructive, please [[Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives|report this error]].
}}

Which looks like:
