This seems to be a frequent problem for this user. @Someguy1221: It looks like filter 384 makes an exception for \bDick('s\s[A-Za-z][a-z]|\s[A-Z][a-z.]) but that doesn't work for {{sortname|Dick|Foo}} etc. What about something along the lines of \bDick('s\s[A-Za-z][a-z]|(\s|\s?\|\s?)[A-Z][a-z.]) instead?

The edit summary triggered one filter for the profanity, and another for 'Armenian football vandal'. I can't view the details of the latter to see what exactly caused it to trigger, but a shorter edit summary without the word 'bitched' might be able to go through.

@Donovan DMC: {{doppleganger}} isn't really needed here, and shouldn't be added to the userpages of unregistered accounts anyway.

I noticed that the page of one of my favorite bands was marked as not meeting the "notability guidelines" for not including secondary sources. I was making an effort to give a bit more credibility by editing the "References" section to provide an additional reference page. Unfortunately, I think the URL triggered the filter due to a couple of elements. The resource is an well regarded online publication highlighting metal music/bands/etc, and the article I linked is a "guest column" by a user with an unfortunate handle... http://www.metalsucks.net/2011/02/23/daughters-of-mara-by-isntatotaldouchebag10/

Date and time
16:20, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
Comments
@Darthvaderobi0:A filter was tripped because of including the name of Brendon Urie, which is apparently used in a lot of vandalism as the log for that filter is full of true positives. The subject matter of this article just happened to coincide with the filter.
The question is whether the band itself, and not just Weekes, meets the criteria for WP:BAND. It looks like it does meet criteria 11 and possibly 6 (though Matt Glass is notable as a filmmaker rather than musician, and Casey Crescenzo is listed as a producer instead of a musician with the band). With that in mind I processed the revert for you. Note that the material on this page was mostly copied to Dallon Weekes so that page will need updates as well.

The proposed edit is not relevant enough to the page's subject to be included. LynxTufts (talk) 18:47, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Sure... Why is a direct quote from her book on the page about her book also blocked? I tried to quote a reference from Stormy Daniels book but was censored. Why is any mention of the contents of Stormy Daniels book censored as 'An automated filter has identified this edit as potentially unconstructive, so it has been disallowed. If this edit is constructive, please report this error. Disruptive editing may result in a block from editing.'. Is it because he a has a Toad dick? Censorship plan and simple.

Description
Was trying to add the concrete example from popular media (below) to illustrate the legal principle to a non-expert audience

"In Season 2, episode 8 of The West Wing, Toby Ziegler explains to Leo McGarry that the real stakes of the school prayer fight are the chilling effect that allowing even 'voluntary' school prayers has on children who are not part of the dominant religion:

TOBY: But I'll tell you why [School Prayer] should be front and center. It's not the first amendment, it's not religious freedom, it's not church and state, it's not... abstract... LEO: What is it? TOBY: It's the fourth grader who gets his ass kicked at recess 'cause he sat out the voluntary prayer in homeroom. It's another way of making kids different from other kids when they're required by law to be there. That’s why you want it front and center; fourth grader; that's the prize."

@Icy13: Can you cite a reliable source which discusses that episode as an example of a chilling effect? That's a reasonable interpretation, but Wikipedia is not about our interpretations but those published elsewhere. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 17:52, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
@Suffusion of Yellow: I can reasonably be considered a subject matter expert on the chilling effect concept (I am a PhD candidate in political science). While I have reviewed the policy on Wikipedia:Expert editors, I believe I am in compliance because I am providing information which is not about my own research, is not a synthesis of other research, but merely presents an example which increases understanding of a legal concept to a non-expert audience much as I would to my students. Such examples are common on other pages which deal with technical concepts both with and without external citation (cf. the last line of this section: State within a state#United_Kingdom. While I understand the encyclopedic purpose of Wikipedia requires documentation whenever possible, the stakes of providing an undocumented example from personal expertise seem to be much lower than the benefit of providing an accessible example from popular media. Put in other words, what sort of citation would be possible here? Experts would simply make the comparison in their course while explaining to students. It is highly unlikely that such an example would be published since it is a convenient comparison rather than new empirical evidence. Based on the WP:OR#cite_note-Exists-1, the fact that such an example would be used in a college class even if it cannot be accessed online or cited is considered a reliable source by definition.Icy13 (talk) 22:50, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
@Icy13: I've copied this over to Talk:Chilling effect as that seems like a better place to discuss this. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 18:06, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

@RockMagnetist: It was actually warning you about a different citation: "{{cite book |chapter=4. Predator-prey relationships |last1=Simon |first1=Verne A. |title=Adaptations in the animal kingdom |date=2010 |publisher=Xlibris Corporation |isbn=9781450033664|pages=29–30}}". See Xlibris.

Oh, o.k. I didn't realize that was self-published. I only used it to state something obvious, so I'll just remove it. RockMagnetist(talk) 04:51, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

  Filter working as intended. You were attempting to remove a whole section of apparently well-sourced content from Alpha Kappa Nu. If there's a good reason to do so, supply a more detailed reason than "false inf" in the edit summary, or better yet, at the talk page. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 19:13, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

It's a legitimate edit (see http://www.thepcmuseum.com/dicksmith/Cat/default.htm). I have added Cat (computer) to the article. I suspect it was the word "Dick" which tripped the edit filter. DH85868993 (talk) 10:40, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Not sure if this is a False Positive or not, but the mangauk.com website is registered on Wikipedia's blacklist, and it's not a bad site (if you get what I mean), as it is the official website to Manga Entertainment UK, where you can buy their products from.

Further, "[sites] where you can buy their products from" are generally not permitted, especially if they have been included in promotional editing/spamming in the past, so unlikely to be removed from the blacklist. General Ization Talk 15:22, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
