{{u|Dmehus}} I got an abuse filter to warn vandals from adding curse words into the wiki, and tagging the attempts. I also want some feedback on it. I also will work on a filter to prevent a user name to not contain any of that string. You earlier suggested that I run for consul. I was wondering if I should do that yet. Thanks! --[[User:TFFfan|TFFfan]] ([[User talk:TFFfan|talk]]) 12:57, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
:{{ping|TFFfan}} Thanks for the {{tl|[ping}}. Two things:
:#I ''never'' suggested that you run for [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]]; I suggested that you run your code for any abuse filters you create by a [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] so they can peer review it to ensure it will not generate any false positives. As for whether I think you should run, I think it's terribly early, to be honest. I'd probably give it at least six months to a year of being active here.
:#[[Special:AbuseFilter/34|Abuse filter 34]] is currently malfunctioning. It seems to be setup in main namespace only, but is active in project namespace. I may have misread that and it is active everywhere, which is fine. However, it is currently malfunctioning. It was triggered by, and has tagged, my edits and Pine's edits incorrectly. As such, I have disabled it for now. However, when I tried to remove the tags from Pine's edit diff, it said that the tags could not be manually removed. I could not find what setting needs to be changed in order to let me manually remove those tags. Please let me know what is controlling the ability to manually edit or remove the tags set by that abuse filter, as that ability should be provided to any bureaucrat (or administrator) to manually change on a case-by-case basis.
