Page you were editing: List of Magic: The Gathering Grand Prix events (filter log)
Description: I was attempting to add the winner of recently ended GP Los Angeles 2016 into the list, which I have done for a hundred events by now. For the first time I met an error and I am not allowed to do this, since his name happens to be Simon Slutsky. Please check this page http://magic.wizards.com/en/events/coverage/gpla16 where the competition is described - that is exactly how his name is written everywhere there. Testing to add him as "Slusky" works fine, so it's a filter problem, I'd think. Please assist.

Description: add new content including links to standards bodies, specifications etc. I cannot save edits because the page is stuck in a loop of the flagging filter notice and Captcha. Due to this, the new content can't be seen. This appears to be a serious workflow bug in Wikipedia!

Page you were editing: Marie Antionette (filter log)
Description: Editing first reference of Antionette as le Autrichienne, which is a pun based on "chienne" meaning "bitch." The line describes the nickname as significant in the turning of the public against Antionette, but then explains it as "the Austrian woman," which is correct but incomplete, and the entire line may have to be rewritten for clarity. The homophonic calumny is adequately sourced further in the article, and omitting it obscures both the public sentiment and the sexism of attacks on Antionette.
