Our discussion

[edit]

You archived our discussion saying "this discussion will never be resolved" but it doesn't feel like you were trying to resolve anything. Codename AD, I'm not trying to harass you but you keep dodging my questions. Let me make it as simple as I can -what is the benefit to Wikipedia of warning IPs and new users for triggering edit filters? Counterfeit Purses (talk) 23:57, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The answer for my (inappropriate) final warning was that I should've issued a level one notice, and for 3RR I had forgotten to issue it to the other user, and the benefit of warning IPs and users, are to tell them why their edit was disallowed, and in case of a good faith edit triggering an edit filter that disallows it, it tells them where to file a report of the false positive.

When someone triggers an edit filter they are shown a warning which tells them what happened and provides them with a link to report a false positive, so if that's why you're doing it, you can stop now. If you want to be helpful, why not try helping people instead of warning them? Counterfeit Purses (talk) 16:30, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
