Shadow of the Starlit Sock

Page you were editing: User:Shadow_of_the_Starlit_Sock/redwarnRules.json (filter log) (user filter log)
Description: I was trying to download RedWarn on this account, but the edit filter system mistakenly tagged a couple of my edits as "possible self promotion". Also, note: This is a legitimate alt of Shadow of the Starlit Sky.

Yes, this is my alt. -- Shadow of the Starlit Sky 16:54, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question: It doesn’t look like the filter disallowed or warned your edits, it just tagged them. This is correct? --- 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 16:59, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Already done. The edits went through because filter only tags them. --- 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 17:02, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, got it. It didn't disallow but mistagged my edits as self promo while all I was doing was downloading redwarn. -- Shadow of the Starlit Sky 17:55, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Private – One or more of the filters triggered are private, and the request needs to be evaluated by an edit filter helper or manager. --Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 18:11, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Already done. You didn't add the correct wikilink the first time you tried. That's why it hit the filter. 1AmNobody24 (talk) 05:10, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Page you were editing: La Grange, Texas (filter log) (user filter log)
Description: Trying to add this external link as reference, regarding the famed Chicken Ranch onced located in the outskirts of La Grange (which served as the basis for the 1973 ZZ Top song La Grange, and the 1978 Broadway musical The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, as well as its 1982 film adaptation), results in a false positive. It must be noted that said source is already used as reference at the Chicken Ranch article itself.

Comments: Consider requesting on the article's talk page; please provide the necessary references. Note that the link that you have provided is not very good since it uses content from Wikipedia. We'd probably want something more reliable than that. --0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 10:40, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
