Description: I was trying to add information on Crist's sexuality, a fact that is by no means inappropriate (sexuality is an important part of an individual's identity!) To auto-tag this post as unconstructive because it uses the word "gay" is clearly homophobic.

Your attempted edit is to call him a "closeted gay man", and attribute this to a source. This may not be vandalism, but it does violate the biographies of living persons policy. Generally we can't attribute a label like "gay" to a person unless they self-identify as such. Sexual identity is complicated, and attempts at outing have the potential to amount to libel. If you're interested in helping with LGBT topics on Wikipedia, take a look at our Wikipedia:WikiProject LGBT. —Guan aco 05:36, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

@RullRatbwan: Done, random IP scribbling reverted. You're just prevented from editing other user's pages as a new user (it's a common form of abuse). I note that your attempted edits were not a simple revert of the vandalism, and made a (good faith) change the the {{banned}} tag. Please don't add or change administrative tags on user pages, in general, it can cause concern. If there's an obvious case to revert vandalism, it should restore the page to the state it was in prior to the vandalism. If you think there's an error or something missing, you can always check the page history to find out who added the tag and ask them about it. Admins often have their reasons for using tags the way they have used them, or for omitting tags in some cases. Thanks. Murph9000 (talk) 14:19, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

If you're involved in sockpuppet investigations, you really should edit from an account. Also this doesn't appear to be because of an edit filter. Unregistered editors don't have permission to create pages due to a different mechanism. —Guan aco 22:24, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

The reason we have the filter is because many vandals would have their vandalism reverted, and then the vandal would retaliate by vandalizing their user page. You can edit your own user page. If you want to change your username, see Wikipedia:Changing username. —MRD 20 14 13:56, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Jeremiah Charles It appears that "Jeremiah Charles 3" is another user account. You can edit that page if you log into the other account. If you're trying to use it as a draft, you can create User:Jeremiah Charles/sandbox. The slash means it's a subpage and not a separate account. —Guan aco 15:21, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

In 2009, this song was the opening song of Mamamia, a gay summer disco in Torre del Lago, Italy; Thanks to this place, it is still recognized as a gay anthem throughout the nation, along with the coreography.

This needs attention. It's possible that paragraphs with multiple uses of the word "gay" are being incorrectly disallowed. —Guan aco 03:17, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

I have an edit on oj but he used the word niggas (he actually used niggers but I don't want that word on the wiki) the system probably flags everything with niggas, the word not the race

In fact, the filter catches both "nigger" and "nigga". While the song apparently references the statement OJ made when he was being arrested, just being moderately popular on YouTube may not suffice for its inclusion in an article. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 11:55, 15 July 2017 (UTC)

Page you were editing: The Walden School (filter log)
Description: The Wikipedia page for the Walden School, a music program in Dublin, NH is woefully inadequate. Many many facts are currently out of date, hence why I am deleting and rewriting them. There are also many sections of the article which are inappropriately detailed and subjective based on the experience of a student named Steve Flynn back in about 2005. My edits are designed to try and give outsiders a concise source where they can read a few paragraphs and understand all the basics of what the Walden experience is, without having to wade through endless sections of purple prose explaining all the specific names of the blessings we sing before meals, and the special dances we do.

False positive - the filter effectively prevents IP addresses from a particular range from commenting at deletion discussions. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 12:37, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
- I have checked the edits caught by the filter - all or almost all are false positives. Maybe the filter is obsolete? - Mike Rosoft (talk) 12:52, 15 July 2017 (UTC)

The sockpuppet notice was originally added to the user page by vandal/sockpuppet accounts themselves. I have changed the notice on the user page, and protected it. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 05:47, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

Trying to edit the macOS Sierra page to show that the sierra nevadas are located in Northern California but an automated filter has identified this as an error but it's wrong so it should be fixed

False positive. It appears that the edit has been blocked solely because the existing paragraph matches the edit filter. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 05:52, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

Looks like a false positive; the filter catches the string "those are the facts". That said, "the sources have not been challenged in the courts" is not how Wikipedia defines reliable sources. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 05:34, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
