- Description
- I added a whole lot of anchor tags to a table, which didn't change the appearance at all but the filter thought was not a minor edit. Maybe the filter should not account for characters within double braces (or even just for certain tags, like anchor or category) when doing character counts for minor/major edit determination.

- Description
- I was eliminating redundancy in the references (the same references were given in the prose and then repeated again verbatim in the "References" section, creating a {{Reflist}} that listed each reference twice when they were actually only used once). This is the third time I've run into this same filter, in one instance while I was trying to revert vandalism, and it's getting annoying. Just because the edit delta is over |500| doesn't mean it's a non-minor edit. Any chance this could be changed to trigger only on non-autoconfirmed users (as opposed to an arbitrary edit count)?
- Date and time
- 20:15, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

- Thanks for cleaning up the redundant references. I agree, the edit count threshold for that filter might be a bit high. Regardless, since it's easy enough to avoid the filter by not marking big cleanup edits as minor, I'd recommend doing that in the meantime. 28bytes (talk) 20:47, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

- The edit filter stopped your attempts to create an article because you put a bunch of exclamation points (!!!) in it. If you try again without the exclamation points you will be allowed to create an article. However, you must include a reference in the article you are creating to support what it says, otherwise it will be deleted. 28bytes (talk) 22:32, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

- There are two issues here. First, some of the text you were adding was in ALL-CAPS, which triggers a vandalism filter. Second, you are attempting to create a very large article with no references whatsoever. I recommend you use the WP:Articles for creation process to add an article instead of trying to re-create this one; the volunteers there can help get you up to speed on what is and is not appropriate in an encyclopedia article. 28bytes (talk) 16:09, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

- Repeatedly referenced the WP page Shriner's to the WP entries for Ray Stevens' parody song "Shriner's Convention" which is a well-known parody song by the best-known parody-song performer Ray Stevens. Either the Wikipedia content Nazi's or people who are subversively editing and PR'ing the Shriner's page have repeatedly deleted this edit for a variety of unfounded and unsupported reasons. This edit shoudl stand on it's own two feet and this fact should never be relegated to be included only if it is beneficial to the Shriner's. The Shriner's are a great organization who have done a lot of good, the fact that this parody song exists and the fact that it invoked a hate-love relationship between Stevens and the Shriner's should NOT be hidden from public view because some Nazi fuckwad wants to write his version of history. Stops it! NO SANITIZING!

- There are four issues here.
- The edit filter triggered because you said "UNSOURCED....IT'S ON WIKIFUCKINGPEDIA YOU DOLT, STOP REWRITING HISTORY" in the edit summary. SHOUTING IN ALL CAPS triggers vandalism filters, so don't do it.
- Second, if you think the Ray Stevens stuff belongs in the article and other editors don't, start a discussion on the article's talk page Talk:Shriners to work out a compromise.
- Third, it is unsourced because you haven't included a reference (for example, a newspaper article) that says what you say is true. You can't just put stuff in because you "heard it someplace", it has to be sourced to a reliable source.
- Fourth, stop calling people Nazis and dolts and such because we have little patience for that sort of attitude. Discuss the issue as an adult in a polite way or don't edit here. 28bytes (talk) 14:32, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

- Interesting, that does look like a false positive. Thanks for reporting it. I'll take a look at that filter (384 ) and see if I can figure out why it did that. In the meantime I made the change for you. 28bytes (talk) 04:37, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
- My guess is because of "nigga". The filters are tripped if the string is in the paragraph edited. —Jeremy v^_^v Components:V S M 04:40, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
- Sort of. Without getting too WP:BEANSY, I think I see a flaw in it that could let some unpleasant stuff through as well as generate some false positives. I'll play around with it some with a test account and see if my theory is correct. 28bytes (talk) 04:47, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

- Description
- I was fixing a quote in the "early days as a musician" section which I noticed was incorrect. The original and correct quote contains the expletive word "fucking" in it, although in the video source provided it is censored out. I felt the need to correct the quote by adding "fucking" to the quote. Because this was the only correction I made to the page, the system flagged me with a false positive and didn't accept my correction. I understand this mistake, but still wish to correct the quote by adding "fucking" to it.

Not a false positive. The filter detected correctly that you deleted most of the article, including the navigation templates. You really should talk this out on talk:Eva Longoria before attempting to make such a large change, and make sure others agree with you. —Soap— 15:24, 7 April 2011 (UTC)

While trying to edit the names of one of the things this computer afked, as a result upon coming back that message stating a portion has deleted came up, unfortunately I could not reverse it, if there is any way to do it that would be of great help.
- There's nothing in the MediaWiki software that could cause accidental deletions of paragraphs, nor was there anyone vandalizing the article while you were there.

I was made aware that a senior editor Mr Scott Mac Donald had removed a page on wikipedia about me. I was attempting without success to use a system i am not familiar with to communicate with him. Hi Scott I have recently become aware that you have removed a page about me from Wikipedia. The explanation you give is that the page had no explanation of my significance. Without being pompous, i hope, can i suggest that i have a place as a designer of contemporary furniture and as a writer and commentator within my field, i am a published author. My website www.finefurnituremaker.com gets 11,0000 visitors a month. I train furniture makers and designers . I would be happy to provide you with evidence of any of this. The page was written without my knowledge but was reasonably accurate so i let it be. If you wish to contact me I am available on dsavage@finefurnituremaker.com I will look at this page periodicaly for your response kind regards david savage

I shall be checking whether it becomes possible for me to do what is clearly necessary at least in my own opinion since at the present time the text as shown on the page in question makes no sense whatsoever, in any form. PS I have now however managed to do this in the way I should have done it in the first place, that is, preparing it according to the procedure that applies to new sections.

Sorry, we're not going to delete a long standing article about an art studio to make room for something completely different. If you want to make an article for loveartbeauty, you'll need to create it from scratch, at a new title, and without copying text from other websites even if you're the owner of the websites. Getting an article on Wikipedia is not easy, especially if you're the only one writing about it; note that most of our articles, including those for businesses, are written collaboratively by many different people, most of whom are not connected to the business in any way. You will need to register an account so you can start the article. You should be familiar with Wikipedia's notability criteria as well, so that you don't spend your time creating an article only to have it soon deleted. —Soap— 23:35, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

This movie DOES NOT exists
- Deleted; thanks for pointing that out. (But in the future, you should use Wikipedia:Speedy deletion; even a hoax article should not be blanked directly since the page will continue to exist, just with no content.) —Soap— 00:42, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

- I was asking this to the reference desk:
<quote>TITLE: Can therapists ever correspond by texting and email?
BODY: If it's a long time until the next appointment but client needs to send a needed message, do you know of any mental health agencies that allow electronic client-therapist communication by texting and email? Pawnee Mental Health doesn't for some reason.
But I may have heard of some other places and contexts that do, but can't quite place where I remember it from.
So in what areas, agencies, circumstances or etc. would a client be able to email or text their therapist? </quote>

- It was because of the "YANKEES S--CK" in the section above yours, which appears to the filter as if it were yours because of a long standing bug. It would go off regardless of what you or any other IP editors wrote. Of course this should be fixed, but it is not currently possible without doubling the running time of the filter and losing some functionality as well, so I won't do it unilaterally. For the meantime there is no problem because that is no longer the adjacent section, so now a section will not set off the filter. Sorry for the inconvenience. —Soap— 12:18, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

- I completed the reference and internal link formatting of an article in progress I was writing on a user subpage before moving it to a proper article page. It won't let me save the final version of the page regardless of whether I check the "Minor edit" box or not, or try to simply create the article page from scratch. Please tell me what is going on and why I can't put the completed version of my article up on the site.

Apologies, someone failed to foresee legitimate uses for the word "retards" and decided to put it in the blacklist (it is actually subtilis retards that set it off, because it doesn't detect word boundaries). Do you have the page text saved? In the meantime I have moved the page to the final title for you. Thank you for reporting this problem. —Soap— 00:40, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

- If it's breaking your computer, please explain. Blanking the entire page however should be avoided in most cases.Jasper Deng (talk) 03:20, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
