Page you were editing: talk:white_people (filter log)
Description: So I was trying to point out that white people might go extinct. Not being racist btw. But I can't post it somehow. I'll just leave the post here:

We are so rich and individualistic that we don't create much offspring anymore. White people get on average maybe one child. Not even mentioning the mixing with other races. If nothing happens we will die out or get heavily mixed up with other races. I mean, arabs for example still create huge families like seven children per woman so they might be much more represented in the future. I'm not trying to be racist though (FYI).

So I was wondering: would it be worth mentioning in this article if I could gather some reliable sources or no?

Page you were editing: Peter Schiff (filter log)
Description: In the section labeled On Taxation The author's post states that Schiff supports a flat tax that would abolish all deductions, including the Home Mortgage interest deduction... I was trying to point out that listing one deduction is a blatant attempt to manipulate the reader and does not belong in an honest article. If the author has an opinion he should express it as an opinion.

Comments: You should discuss that on the article's talk page not in the article. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 22:36, 4 July 2015 (UTC).[reply]

Page you were editing: User:Kaze no Ryu Ogawa Ha Bugei (filter log)
Description: This article is horseshit. This school is a Brazilian invention. It's fake. Pure lies. No historical facts support this story. This is someone who learned his techniques from a video and sells it as Koryu. For the trained eye, very easy to see that this ain't bujutsu. For the layman; here you can find some arguments and facts: http://www.aikiweb.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-13028.html Please delete this page. It is an insult to Japanese culture and to those who go to Japan to actually train the real Koryu.
Date and time: 23:56, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
Comments: The page has since been deleted (although not for the reason you wanted it to be). Next time please use the processes of WP:CSD or WP:MFD.--Jasper Deng (talk) 20:15, 4 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Page you were editing: Talk:The Jerry Lewis Show (filter log)
Description: I deleted a comment I had made a few minutes earlier after realizing it was based on erroneous information and was no longer needed (and I reverted the corresponding edit I had made to the main article). As it happened to be the only comment on the Talk Page, it was flagged as a positive, though I was not prevented from deleting it. I do not know whether my editing as an IP had anything to do with it.
Date and time: 00:07, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
Comments: That's fine, maybe we can tweak the filter to be more forgiving when people delete their own comments. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 23:08, 4 July 2015 (UTC).[reply]

Comments

At Penal Code (Singapore) I attempted to introduce the new legal definition of rape which is:

Rape 375.—(1) Any man who penetrates the vagina of a woman with his penis —

(a) without her consent; or

(b) with or without her consent, when she is under 14 years of age, shall be guilty of an offence.

[1].

The definition in the article (which I was attempting to change) is outdated. The filter blocked me.188.25.170.21 (talk) 02:27, 6 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Page you were editing: List of Century Media Records artists (filter log)
Description: I was attempting to remove artists that are no longer on Century Media's roster and add all new artists that have been added to Century Media's roster since the last time the list was edited and was stopped from doing so because my edit was "potentially unconstructive." All information was taken from Century Media's official website, and I was planning on supplementing all new artists with links to secondary press releases.

Page you were editing: [[3]] (filter log)
Description: I was responding to a user suggesting that Pedophile was not the correct term (though he did not note which term should be used)

I'm assuming that you're implying the correct term is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebephilia ? I'm sure you're technically correct there, but that's the worst kind of correct. Pedophile is commonly used to refer both to the meaning literally defined by it's Greek language roots (child lover), but also to refer to someone attracted to those under the age of consent. I misread this and thought for a second you were saying the correct term was "moletrouser." I mean absolutely no offense, but it was close enough to molester that my mind went there.

I tend to get a lot of false positives on bots because I generally have knowledge related to controversial topics. So far all of my edits that were reverted by bots, have later been approved. Example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garry_Hoy Previously noted that in Permanent Midnight Jon Stewart is high on heroin while jumping at windows. When I changed heroin to crack (which is correct), it was reverted. I keep having to fight for little changes like this. It's making using wikipedia difficult and unenjoyable. I'm sticking with it for now, but I'm hoping to get this fixed. This may seem like trivial stuff, but a society needs it's janitors just as much as it needs its pundits and sculptors and engineers.

Page you were editing: User:Ismirth (filter log)
Description: I have a stalker. I was trying to remove all of the test from my user account profile. I would like the entire thing deleted, but I couldn't figure out how to do that. I would like to remove all instances of ismirth from the wiki if possible, and change them all to anonymous. I will just recreate a new user name in the future once I have the stalker situation taken care of. Thank you.
