- Description
- Tried to use the word "sniggering" to refer to puerile laughter (see [1] for the context). Word was rejected due to a Scunthorpe problem with the filter. I switched to a different word that doesn't convey the meaning I wanted quite as well.

- Done. You're perfectly correct in diagnosing the problem here; unfortunately, there's little we can do about this word. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 07:35, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
- Except, perhaps, insert an exception to the filter for sniggering. 92.10.185.131 (talk) 12:35, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
- Od Mishehu, thanks! Dunno if it's worth adding an exception. I thought it might be ok to change the filter mechanism to not block the stopword unless it's by itself, but I can see how that might go wrong. 173.228.123.121 (talk) 20:04, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

Not done Not sure what you were trying to publish, but this is what the filter saw ... and correctly rejected. Not a false positive. General Ization Talk 21:04, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

- Trolley Problem (filter log)
- Description
- I was trying to add to the "Talk" tab about the Trolley problem, pointing out that the hypothetical ethical question actually occurs in real-life. I consider this a constructive addition and I purposely made it in the discussion, not on the main page. The post may have been flagged due to its (necessary) reference to a terrorist hostage situation, although I did not ascribe the terrorist to any entity, race, etc. It may also have been flagged because I referenced the Quora post that inspired me to edit.

- Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Redirects (filter log)
- Description
- requested a redirect to the article at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?curid=326992 from an alternate title. See the request here. Please leave the redirect request unchanged (i.e. leave it the way I ended up writing it): this note is only to inform/amuse the EF maintainers about a long-term situation, not to ask for a fix to the specific edit.
The edit filter (annoying but arguably necessary) also combined with some validity checking code in the redirect request template to prevent me from typing something sane, like "see below", into the space for the redirect target. The submission form requires the redirect target to be an actual article, so I ended up writing "George Washington". I'm not asking WP:EF/FP to do anything about that last part, but am mentioning it as a dreary example of Wikipedia technocracy getting in the way of perfectly good edits. Anyway I thought you folks might like this.

Not done The edit filter is working properly, detecting "fucking". However, the edit is unacceptable not because of this but because it is unsourced, so unverifiable. The article doesn't attempt to offer an etymology for the term, and an etymology is not critical to the quality of this article. General Ization Talk 18:18, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

- YTPs (filter log)
- Description
- I was trying to change the redirect so that it leads to YouTube Poop. Most people who type in "YTPs" are going to want to see the article on YouTube Poop, not the article on mashups, so the redirect should be changed to make it slightly more convenient.

Hi :) The message you have received is "It is almost never appropriate to add emoji and other unicode icons (e.g. ♥, ☺, ☢, ☮) to Wikipedia articles", which is correct. Thank you very much for respecting the warning and not submitting the edit. It is clear that you have been acting in good faith, but this specific addition would not really have improved the article. There seem to be multiple problems with this submission:
- MOS:YOU: Avoid addressing the reader using you or your, which sets an inappropriate tone.
- WP:NOTHOWTO: While Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places and things, an article should not read like a "how-to" style owner's manual, cookbook, advice column (legal, medical or otherwise) or suggestion box. This includes tutorials, instruction manuals, game guides, and recipes. Describing to the reader how people or things use or do something is encyclopedic; instructing the reader in the imperative mood about how to use or do something is not. Such guides may be welcome at Wikibooks instead.
- The only relevant information of your addition, how a smiley looks like, is already covered in the next sentences.
Hope this helps! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:55, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

Not done Try it without the <nowiki> tag(s), and without the all-caps headline concerning someone's Nazi past in one of the citations. The first is unnecessary and the latter looks like vandalism to the filter. General Ization Talk 00:05, 5 April 2018 (UTC)

Pink's mouth is only blurred once in the censored version of the song's video as she says "bitch" at about 2 minutes 45 seconds in the video.", but the filter will not allow it.
