adding previously-non-existent refs & massive cleanup & will somebody please put these aggressive filters on warn-not-disallow?  :-)

Clarification... first time I submitted I used archive dot eye ess with http at the front, and got the "correct" message (albeit a pretty rude one).

Second time I submitted, I had removed the http from the front, which then gave me the generic 'you are bad' message, with no indication that the problem was *still* archive dot eye ess.

Checking my filter-log here, showed that it was still the archive dot eye ess filter that was tripping... just with the generic, rather than the indicative-of-the-problem, errmsg.

Please fix the regex, so that *all* triggers of the anti-archive-dot-eye-ess abuseFilter, actually print the errmsg which *says* what the problem is. Danke. p.s. Also, checking for SGML comments might be nice.  :-)   — 74.192.84.101 (talk) 22:17, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Unfortunately, due to the way the filter system works, this is how "warn+disallow" work - they first display the warning (which can be set for individual filters), then the generic "disallow" warning on the second try. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 09:18, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
@Od Mishehu: MediaWiki:Abusefilter-disallowed‎ is the warning that is given when an edit is disallowed (even after a warning). You could modify that and add a parser function to detect which filter is being triggered ($1 is the description, $2 is the filter ID, so you probably want to use $2). 88.113.145.84 (talk) 18:05, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Talk:List of villages depopulated during the Arab–Israeli conflict

Your stupid filter on the talk page of Depopulated Arab villages in Israel blocked this comment I was trying to make in reply to someone who made a ludicrous request to delete an article:

Bwhahahahaha! So basically your argument is that because it's controversial we should pretend it didn't happen at all. Yeah good luck with that. Doubt you'll be able to convince enough of even the most douchebag Wikipedia editors that we should be deleting articles that are subject to controversy, on that basis alone.

Apparently it was because I used the word "douchebag." Profanity in and of itself should not result in an entire comment being considered "unconstructive" nor should we be required to write like academics or bureaucrats or "polite society" in the Talk section simply because that is some peoples' preference. These stupid bots do more harm than good, and, are, in effect, a perfunctory and somewhat arbitrary censorship device based on language style rather than meaningful content. You Wikicrats who create and maintain these things are some truly sorry people.

Wikipedia:Village pump (policy) (filter log)
Description
I was attempting to add the following reply to Village pump (policy) and your edit filter blocked me for no other reason than because I am an IP stating it may be unconstructive. Here is what I was trying to post:

:::::::Here is the post I tried to load a minute ago, lets see if it works this time. I'm familiar with the useage and availability of those servers but I still think its a mountain out of a mole hill and there are other ways of gaming the system if that's what they want to do. I also still don't see any proof that the problem is as big as you describe. You say you have procedures in place to allo wthem to edit but do they know what they are? Probably not. Most people aren't going to spend 2 hours to search about how to make a change if they see a typo that needs correcting and they are restricted. Their just going to say screw it and walk away and tell all their friends that Wikipedia sucks and doesn't meet their mandate as the Encyclopedia anyone can edit. And rightly so. If anyone has to either create an account or search for 2 hours on instructions to submit a change then anyone doesn't apply. Anyway, I digress. The point of my posting wasn't to argue the merits (or lack of merit) of preemptively using a bot to block ips that have never edited, it was to argue the merits of reviewing the IP blocks to allow more editors to edit. Particularly those range blocks which include several very large groups, several universities and colleges and even a couple countries if I am reading them correctly. Many of which have been in place for a more than 3 years, some for as long as 10 years. Anything more than a year is unnecessary in my opinion. If we unblock it and are flooded with vandals then extend it for another year, but this indefinate blocking is abusive and needs to be restricted. Maybe even limited to Arbcom or Steward action only. 138.162.8.59 (talk) 22:04, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

What in that post is unconstructive or needs to be filtered? I tell you, nothing, this is all because Wikipedia does not want IP's to edit and it goes to great lengths to ensure that IP editing is as painful as possible in a petty and misguided attempt at forcing the users to create accounts. I don't need an account. 138.162.8.59 (talk) 22:04, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

Description
My changes prompted filter 351 to claim "Your edit appears to have added content to the end of the article"

In retrospect, that message may have been technically accurate, though it was not visible in the source. The way I thik I addressed the problem was to remove a single extra square bracket on one of the lines of text specifying the article's categories. The extra bracket was not at the end of the article.

I just tried twice to recreate the problem but I wasn't able to. Consider this an unreproducible false positive

That was standard archiving, see here. The block would have been for adding {{findnotice}}, as that creates external links. It appears to be set up to block any IP edit that involves external edits, even when the IP edit is adding a recognised template. There is no difference between an IP or logged in editor using the template as the links generated cannot be manipulated. SilkTork ✔Tea time 16:31, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

It seems to be your use of the word A****T which seems to trigger a spam filter. Try again, but get round the use of that word somehow. Peridon (talk) 15:15, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

The edit filter (I assume the same one) also triggered on [6] which doesn't include that word. Is it possible it's filtering on non-Latin-letter headers? (or the WP:RFD discussions are hitting on a lot of banned words being used as redirects) Though I don't see why a chemical name [7] would be banned. So I think it's because the edit filter is complaining about non-Latin headers... -- 70.50.151.11 (talk) 00:59, 1 March 2014 (UTC)
A non-Latin header should not trigger a spambot edit filter tag, since many Wikiproject discussions involve such headers. This is not a rare thing, and article talk pages on subjects that involve non-Latin languages also can include such headers. -- 70.50.151.11 (talk) 05:46, 3 March 2014 (UTC)

added list of sources earlier today. while I adjusted the formatting, the other person commented inline, hence, e/c when I tried to save. I force-overrode their one-line change with my 100 changes, but the abuseFilter prevented this. Change the abuse-filter setting from 'deny' to be 'warn', please, so others are not similarly forced to do out-of-browser workarounds.

  • Unfortunately, as part of your changes you were removing some material from the page; the filter does not allow unregistered editors to do that to other user's talk pages. Black Kite (talk) 00:23, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
    • Right. That part is clear. And, the backlog in dealing with all these false-poz reports about abuseFilters is also clear. Which is why I redid my 100 changes, manually, already. But the problem of over-aggressive abuseFilters remains, for myself in the future, and for anybody else bitten by them. See above, where the anon was trying to get rid of WP:NOTPROMOTION, and was prevented by the abuseFilter. See my own abuseFilter log, where I'm trying to help new users, who often have very little clue on how our idiosyncratic talkpages work. This particular abuseFilter has never bothered me before the last few weeks, so it is either a new abuseFilter, or a new wrinkle in the regex of an existing abuseFilter. It is set to deny-with-no-useful-message-and-no-workaround, just like many other abuseFilters (see elsewhere on this page for people that are trying to revert vandalism, but because archive.dot.eye.ess happened to be in the vandalism-reversion-content, get bitten by the abuseFilter). Is there any point in reporting false-poz, with the recommendation that the level of abuseFilter-aggressiveness be changed, to warn-not-deny? Or are we so short on editor-count, that cleaning up the warn-alerts, would overwhelm the guardian-resources we have? You are pointing out that the abuseFilter (aka the editors who write and maintain the regex of this particular abuseFilter) does not allow me to edit, as and when needed. Black Kite, I'm asking why the abuseFilters are set to not-allow, as oppose to warn-n-flag. HTH. p.s. And no, please don't remind me that the dreaded WP:FLOW is coming, which will make editing talkpages effectively impossible in general; I fail to view that as a "solution" of any stripe.  ;-)   — 74.192.84.101 (talk) 02:22, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Description
Worked for quite a few hours to improve the article's history section with more recent information (most info verifiable with citations), added a photo within this section of the university's first president, cleared the listing of colleges under the academics section (this is probably why my edit's being reported), but instead, chose to alphabetically list the different schools and colleges into a table with all the founding dates I could find (so far). From my reading on other university wikipages, I noticed this practice as fairly common and gives the page a more encyclopedic feel. I also added various bits of information about the academic programs with citations and added other missing info, or just general improvements to other sections of the page. I should also note that I tried saving two times prior to this latest edit, all three of which I was blocked. The latest edit has the most extensive improvements.

I'm just trying to erase the embedded code I've attached a while ago. The only purpose of that embedded code is just to insert an image for that page but when I save the code only appeared no image and when I'm trying to delete that certain code and save again but it automatically popped this message "An automated filter has identified this edit as potentially unconstructive, and it has been disallowed. If this edit is constructive, please report this error." please help me fix this. Thank and more power!

Description
Page was previously flagged as lacking sources, having a promotional tone and written from a fan's point of view, rather than a neutral point of view, this iteration adds chapters, details and sources as a start to a more comprehensive biography However, a wikibot prevented me from publishing my new edits, citing that they were not constructive. All 94 sources are from various reputable newspapers, journals, publications, websites etc, hence I believe the wikibot has registered a false positive. As this is my first time editing a Wiki article, I appreciate advice on how to overcome this. I have integrated salient points from the previous entry, but I am concerned that perhaps I should not have pasted over the previous entry? Please advise. Thank you. ;Date and time

Description
My attempt to revert a partial blanking to oldid=589552074 was denied because one reference used an archive(dot)is archive. I know the reason this filter exists, but why doesn't it have any exception for reverting vandalism? I did manage to find and scrub the offending archiveurl (compare), so I admit there is no admin attention needed on the article.

Description
Explaining why the link I removed (to a definition in Wiktionary, but NOT a definition of the sense used in the article) was innapropriate. Now I'm wondering if the linking was done not by a stupid human but by a stupid robot. If you've got a robot randomly linking words to definitions in Wiktionary, this is a good example of wyy that is a bad idea. Somebody looking to show what clever programmers they are would be better employed to write something to keep track of how many times people start to edit something and get put off the the rediculous hoops you make people jump through just to do something positive they aren't going to be paid for. I swear this is the last time I try to improve Wikipedia in the least. You've made it too much trouble.

Reporting of child pornography images on Wikimedia Commons (filter log)
Description
I'm not reporting a false positive, but an apparent problem/bug with your message. The link to "Wikipedia Co-Founder Speaks Out Against Jimmy Wales" (author:Nicole Ferraro) is dead. I replaced it, but was told (correctly) that my change was rejected as my new link was from the banned Archive.is. So I went to look for an alternative link, but found none, so I decided to re-enter the Archive.is url so I could once again get the same message so I could check out what had been said in the RFC. But instead it rejected it with a completely different message that didn't offer any link to the RFC. As it happens I got lucky and was able to find the RFC by other means. But it nevertheless seems to me that this is a bug as it should have given me the same message as it did the first time. So I'm reporting this apparent bug here, because I don't know where else to report it.


Afterthought: I don't know whether this is relevant or not, but I'll mention it just in case it is: shortly after my attempt to get the same message again (as mentioned above), Windows gave me a message saying it had just blocked an attempt to add a new Toolbar (presumably to my browser, though I'm not 100% sure of that). As I presumably accessed Archive.is shortly beforehand, as well as other sites on the same Google search that turned out not to have the desired archived article, it may also suggest that malware may be coming from that banned site, or from non-working pseudo-competitors of that banned site perhaps intended to convey the impression that our ban is dangerous for us (though I have no proof of any of this speculation).
