Not a false positive: Use of the content translation tool is currently disallowed for users with less than 500 edits, and whose accounts are less than 30 days of age. I recommend creating a draft to bypass the namespace restriction on the filter. Once you do so, place

The list that describes him as a "film director, producer, writer, and actor" should also label him as a "child rapist, pedophile, and fugitive." These facts are not in dispute. They should not be buried. They should be noted up front. Crediting him as an artist excuses his crimes.

- User talk:Doc James (filter log)
- Description
- Good morning Doc James. There is an editor "Plmokg22345" who is rewording medical articles without reading the underlying sources. See here for example:
Talk:Ageing#Presbyopia: Ages of onset. Tropics compared to temperate regions
I noticed she has been doing the same with articles relating to cognition. Her general editing pattern is as follows: If the medical source says "All men will die", she will change that to conditional "All men may die". In some instances this can be misleading from a medical point of view, as well as misrepresenting the source.
Could you or some other Wikipedia administrator possibly issue her with a warning? She does not seem to have a functional talk page. Thanks.

@86.170.123.24: nowhere in the ref dose say if they live near the equator. as for the other ref put in by 86.154.101.3 who I think is you I also think you are 86.170.123.90 as well, the abreact did not say what was listed so I assumed you were putting in something that was not even in what you ref. the only other page relating to cognition I edited was Presbyopia which in the source say Anyone over the age of 35 is at risk for developing presbyopia. Everyone experiences some loss of focusing power for near objects as they age, but some will notice this more than others. so I changed it first from Presbyopia typically begins to occur after 35 years to Anyone over the age of 35 is at risk for developing presbyopia then tried to changed and all people become affected to some degree to but some will notice this more than others as it is already established that it will occur but was reverted who said it is not a subjective thing; it is physiological who when I thought about it was right since it made it sound like a subjective thing I also told you before I am a guy.(Plmokg22345 (talk) 08:46, 23 September 2016 (UTC))

- The Magic Faraway Tree ( Enid Blyton ) (filter log)
- Description
- Attempted to edit the name 'Rick' to Dick ( as in: short for Richard ) in the description of the Faraway Tree. This is no way a derogatory term or name in this case. It is simply the name of the character. Dick is short for Richard, as I'm sure you know. However, your system clearly does not. Please allow this edit! Enid Blyton would turn in her grave if she knew her principal character's names had to be changed due to the 'bad word police'.
