Laws regarding rape (filter log) (redo)
Description
WHY was my contribution repeatedly removed as vandalism?
The text I added is to the Laws regarding rape is:

Article 128 [1] is entitled Sexual violation defined. Article 128 (1) states that Sexual violation is the act of a person who rapes another person or has unlawful sexual connection with another person. Article 128 (2) defines rape as follows:

Person A rapes person B if person A has sexual connection with person B, effected by the penetration of person B's genitalia by person A's penis,—

(a) without person B's consent to the connection; and
(b) without believing on reasonable grounds that person B consents to the connection.


Article 128 (3) outlaws "unlawful sexual connection" (which refers to sexual acts other than those described in 128 (2) - i.e without the penetration of genitalia - committed under the same circumstances of 128 (2).

Article 128 (4) makes it clear that spousal rape is illegal: "One person may be convicted of the sexual violation of another person at a time when they were married to each other."

The mere fact that a person allows sexual connection to be performed on them, does not automatically mean that they are legally consenting. If that person allows sexual connection due to coercion (eg, under force, threats or fear of force; when he/she is asleep or very intoxicated; if he/she is affected by an intellectual, mental, or physical condition or impairment of a certain nature and degree; when he/she is mistaken about the partner's identity) than he/she is not legally consenting.

128A Allowing sexual activity does not amount to consent in some circumstances [2]

(1) A person does not consent to sexual activity just because he or she does not protest or offer physical resistance to the activity.

(2) A person does not consent to sexual activity if he or she allows the activity because of—

(a) force applied to him or her or some other person; or
(b) the threat (express or implied) of the application of force to him or her or some other person; or
(c) the fear of the application of force to him or her or some other person.

(3) A person does not consent to sexual activity if the activity occurs while he or she is asleep or unconscious.

(4) A person does not consent to sexual activity if the activity occurs while he or she is so affected by alcohol or some other drug that he or she cannot consent or refuse to consent to the activity.

(5) A person does not consent to sexual activity if the activity occurs while he or she is affected by an intellectual, mental, or physical condition or impairment of such a nature and degree that he or she cannot consent or refuse to consent to the activity.

(6) One person does not consent to sexual activity with another person if he or she allows the sexual activity because he or she is mistaken about who the other person is.

(7) A person does not consent to an act of sexual activity if he or she allows the act because he or she is mistaken about its nature and quality. (8) This section does not limit the circumstances in which a person does not consent to sexual activity.

(9) For the purposes of this section,—

allows includes acquiesces in, submits to, participates in, and undertakes
sexual activity, in relation to a person, means—
(a) sexual connection with the person; or
(b) the doing on the person of an indecent act that, without the person's consent, would be an indecent assault of the person.


Attempted sexual violation and assault with intent to commit sexual violation are also punished (Article 129).[3]

Article 129A [4] is entitled Sexual conduct with consent induced by certain threats and makes it illegal for a person to have sexual connection with another person or to do an indecent act on another person when the accused knows that the other person has been induced to consent to the connection/act by threat. However a person is guilty of this crime "if (and only if) he or she knows that the other person has been induced to consent" to the sexual connection/indecent act "by an express or implied threat". Subsection (5), (a), (b), (c) of this article defines "threat" for the purpose of this article.

Article 135 [5] outlaws Indecent assault. Article 138[6] outlaws Sexual exploitation of person with significant impairment.

Yes, you could call it a false positive, but we would not have an entry like that on the SMD page anyway. It's similar to an attempt a few weeks ago to get "Third Tier Toilet" on the TTT page. It wasn't removed because it was obscene, it was removed because it doesn't point to a Wikipedia article or a misspelling of one. Soap 11:07, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Catenanuova (filter log) (redo)
Description

While spending an awful lot of time editing this article I received what I believe is a false positive for Vandalism.I have followed all the given instructions by adding the proper references and by giving edit summaries from the time I was warned onwards.Since I believed that someone was altering my text I missed a few times the edit summaries and have quicly asked the help of two administrators for content and dispute resolution before receiving the warning.Thank you

The only entries I see on your filter log are from July, and in any case, that filter was designed to be very wide-open and catch false positives on purpose. The only one triggering the edit filter is Amending (talk · contribs). Soap 15:50, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So what am I supposed to do to properly add my references?I have asked both for content and dispute resolution with Amending from two administators but still have not heard anything

You should be patient; most Wikipedia editors are not online at all hours of the day, and he may not have seen your message yet. Disputes such as these can rarely be solved by just one person, anyway, and generally can't be solved in one day either. Likewise I can't promise to faithfully watch this page either. You both should read the policies at WP:3RR which forbid a user from reverting a page to his preferred version more than three times per day; both of you are in violation of that rule now and could be blocked if you continue. You should instead try to talk to him on the talk page of the article (talk:Catenanuova); if he refuses to communicate then would be a more appropriate time to take action.
I will be giving an identical warning to Amending. Soap 16:22, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is the wording basically.I have presented my case all over Europe and in Italy in various meteorological forums that he participated.It has been months now and nothing has changed,so i can not take him in good faith.I am discussing and refuting in the discussion page but still the article remains the same

Does it have to be spelled COCK Matin? As in, with all capitals? This filter specifically only looks for incidences of capitalized obscene words, such as this. If you spelled it Cock it would not be trapped. As an aside, there is no rule preventing you from editing a page more than 3 times in a day. WP:3RR specifically refers to edit wars, when attempting to undo the work of someone else. However some of the references you've been adding will likely carry little weight in an AfD, such as the radio interview, and a Facebook page. But this is not to say you cannot add them, or add anything else to the article that's true. Soap 17:00, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is a filter in place to limit the number of redirects that a user can perform in a given amount of time, to prevent massive changes from going unnoticed. If you not averse to registering an account, you could do so and be free of the problem and other similar ones, since many of these limitations are only applied to users editing from anonymous IP addresses.

I assume this is a mistake; the filter shows you removing everything after the second paragraph. While there are some software platforms out there that could not handle large pages, this doesn't look like an example of that. If it is, though, then you won't be able to edit pretty much anything. Have you edited Wikipedia from this system before? Soap 19:15, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This happens almost every day. Your recommendation has been brought up before, possibly more than once. Although a few filters do specifically exclude the Sandbox, because of the way the edit filter runs, to exempt all of them would require writing the exemption code independently on every filter, which would impede the performance of all of them. If there were a "skip all" function on the edit filter, it would be great, but that doesn't exist yet.Soap 20:42, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

note this is a templated message, so some of it may sound odd. But I'm not using a template because I'm ignoring you, just because it's essentially unsolvable right now unless we were to run the same code 100+ times on every edit to exempt the sandboxes. Soap 20:46, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I've done the edit for now. When I get some more time (I've been busier than usual lately) I'll try to work out a version of the filter that exempts articles about diapers. It's not as easy as it looks because of the way the filter is coded ... which, while it may seem somewhat difficult, it seems to be quite an improvement over the previous version of the filter. As for why the filter was stopping you in the first place, it was because of the word "poop" in the edit, which, believe it or not, is more common in vandal edits than similar words generally considered less mild.

===THE RARGE===

The RARGE is a social club located on the corner of whites and burton rds in the centre of paralowie. Its beginings began as a humble garage out the back of the Clarkson residence. The Rarge was opened as just a local hangout where the founder Daniel Clarkson and a few of his close friends could hang out and have fun and enjoy the weekends. Then the boys thought they'd share there lucky gift and local hangout with the rest of the community and encouraged all people in the suburb of paralowie to come and share the fun. The Rarge was first erected in 1996 but wasn't actually opened as 'The Rarge' untill 2001. the rarge has been a nice safe environment for people to socialise and have fun throughout the years with no hassles or dramas and is a loyal hangout for the true locals and will go down through the years to come. At the start it only started with around 10 member with a few regulars stopping by, at this moment The Rarge memberships are around 500+ with only a very select few getting the honnor of 'life membership'..... while walking around in paralowie if you ask a friendly face(over the age of 18) they will gladly direct you in the right direction of The Rarge and will share some of the great stories and expiriences that they've had there..... The atmosphere is very relaxed and all people that act in a responsible manner are more than welcome there and will be greated with a smile and a hearty handshake from the founder Daniel Clarkson himself!..... Only 1 rule at the Rarge ALWAYS RESPECT THE RARGE AND ITS MEMBERS!!!!!!In conclusion The Rarge is a very friendly place and there is a novel in the works being written by the founder Daniel Clarkson about the history of The Rarge called 'If These Walls Could Talk: The Story Of The Rarge!'

was just adding a place of significance in paralowie south australia

You can try making the change again without all the exclamation marks, because the exclamation marks have no relevance or improvement to the article, and the filter stopped you because of your addition of "!!!!!". Minimac (talk) 17:44, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Even in an edit summary, you should avoid obscenities unless necessary (e.g. if the content of the edit is referring to an obscenity). Even in these cases you should not capitalize it as this makes the edit stand out from the others unnecessarily. Soap 12:27, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is better handled by people familiar with the articles, I think; it certainly isn't a false positive though because you really are adding the same link to a series of articles, and that is what the filter is for. Legitimate or not, this is not a common practice on Wikipedia. Soap 17:11, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As above, this is better handled by people familiar with the articles. Adding links to a series of articles is often a sign of attempted promotional activity and even if the link is "good" in and of itself it is not usually a good idea. If you only add it to the Samaná article I think you should be OK because another user has looked at that link and seems to approve of it. Soap 17:12, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, there is nothing to indicate that this is a reliable source in any way; seems to me that the filter did a good job of preventing a spamlink from being inserted. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:13, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It appears as though your edit has indeed gone through, so no harm done. The filter normally tags whenever an IP or new account removes a large amount of text, but otherwise does not hamper the edit (since there may be a legitimate reason for a new user to make the edit). —Jeremy (v^_^v Hyper Combo K.O.!) 05:50, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
