  Done – The edit for this report has been implemented, however no changes to the filter were made. Added to the infobox instead though. Positioning seems better. Feel free to let me know if you want me to move it out of there for some reason though. EggRoll97 (talk) 04:03, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Patoo Abraham (filter log) (user filter log)
Description
I am trying to submit my edits / additions to Patoo Abraham's wikipedia page, but it says that I have an automated filter which says my content could be potentially unconstructive.

Results of the 2024 Victorian local elections in South-Eastern Melbourne (filter log) (user filter log)
Description
Hi, I am currently adding party affiliations to candidates on the Victorian local election result pages where they are currently not listed with one, thanks to a recent article from the Age which lists candidates and their affiliations. It probably looks like spam to an automated filter because I am repetitively adding the same words over and over again (Labor, Liberal etc) in quick succession.

The Replacements (band) (filter log) (user filter log)
Description
Paul Westerberg's T-shirts spelled out a message that included the word 'whore'. Why is this being censored in Wikipedia? He didn't omit the letters 'hore' from the sequence of shirts that he wore, so it's erroneous to omit them here. The word 'whore' isn't being used as hatespeech (either in Westerberg's original use or the reporting of it on Wikipedia) so this just seems to be some extremely quaint prudishness on some editor's part.

This word isn't censored on the page for Doolittle by the Pixies (to take just one example from dozens), so why should it be censored here?
