Page you were editing: Oasis Academy Shirley Park (filter log)
Description: I'm currently attempting to update the Oasis Academy Shirley Park Wikipedia Page as currently it only contains information relating to the sporting achievements at the Academy. As prospective parents/students may use this resource we need to provide a more well rounded impression of the school - in addition the page has been created by an unknown individual but we would like to be able to update it where necessary.
Date and time: 10:34, 7 July 2014 (UTC)
Comments: I think the reason for the filter's objection was that you're removing almost everything that's currently in the article. Please do not remove the current introduction, because we most definitely need to say what the Academy is in the first place; "Oasis Academy Shirley Park is an Ofsted rated Outstanding all-through incorporating a Children's Centre (0-3), Nursery (3-4), Primary Phase (4-11), Secondary Phase (11-16) and Sixth Form (post 16) and opened in September 2009" is almost meaningless to me, as it doesn't explain what those numbers in parentheses are, and (while "Croydon, Surrey" isn't the best location), it doesn't tell me where in the world your academy is located. Also, a lot that you've written is first-person, and encyclopedia articles are written in third-person, describing the institution instead of promoting it with pieces of your own perspective such as "the partnership provides quality education in state of the art facilities" and "Our unique all-through nature provides".

These filters tend to prevent more edits by new editors than by longstanding editors (probably because more vandalism is done by new editors), so I've put in what you wrote. I see no problems with what you did except for "euphoric ang generous" :-) and no reason why the filter should have objected, so I'll leave that part to a more tech-savvy reviewer.

Offhand, I don't know what the limits on that filter are, but any registered editor with a good history would be able to edit through it.

Page you were editing: Manhattan Project (filter log)
Description: I was trying to edit the page to reflect the fact / importance of Mark Opliphant's roll in the formation of the Manhattan project after the program was relocated from Australia to the U.K & latter to the USA After Australian Mark Opliphant split the atom & lobbyed the Australian Government & the The U.K government to form the atomic agency's in those respective nations, before he would later lobby the U.S.A to set up the Manhattan project so as to relocate the program to the safer location of the USA.

It's beyond me how ny page on the Manhattan project can exclude the involvement of Mark opliphent, the very man who set up the Manhattan project. The very man who discovered helium 3. The very man who split the atom. I was just attempting to give this page some accuracy, as failure to add Mark opliphant's key roll in the formation of the A-Bomb & the Formation of the Manhattan project can only be seen as yet another case of American lies propaganda & thievery.

Page you were editing: Epidemiology of autism (filter log)
Description: I tried to add the following to the first paragraph discussing causes of autism. The text below reviews the results of the new Charge Study on Autism and proximity to agriculture and a similar study done in 2007. Both studies were done by University of California. One was published in Oct 2007 and the other was published just last month. Both studies were published in the peer reviewed journal - Environmental Health Perspectives. I did just notice that the doi= journal number was incorrect for the second journal article. Can I correct this?

Recently, however, several studies have found a strong correlation with pregnant mothers living near agriculture and increased risk of Autism Spectrum Disorder. Both studies found that Autism Spectrum Disorders were from 60% to 700% higher for families living closer to agriculture and also for families being exposed to higher poundages of pesticides per acre. The highest increase was found for pregnant mothers exposed to pesticides between day 25 and 88 of pregnancy (after neural tube closure) and living within 500 meters of the farming areas.

Page you were editing: [[An economic threshold is the insect's population level or extent of crop damage at which the value of the crop destroyed exceeds the cost of controlling the pest. Economic thresholds can be expressed in a variety of ways including the number of insects per plant or per square metre, the amount of leaf surface damage, etc. In many cases, thresholds have been established through scientific research. Unfortunately, not all combinations of pests and crops have been studied, and some reported thresholds are educated estimates.

It is important to note that just the presence of insects in a crop does not suggest that there is the potential for damage and subsequent crop loss. It is important to identify the insect and to determine if it is really a pest, a beneficial species or is inconsequential to the crop. The majority of the economically important insects have been studied.

Economic thresholds can fluctuate depending on a combination of factors including the pest, the crop type, growth stage, expected market value and cost of control. The economic threshold may also vary with growing conditions. A vigorously growing crop may be able to withstand higher insect pest populations with little yield loss, depending on the stage of the plant. Conversely, relatively few insects may significantly damage reproductive or yield components (pods, bolls and heads) or a stressed crop. Furthermore, researchers have suggested that with some sucking insects, such as aphids on flax, a higher yielding crop will suffer a greater percentage yield loss than a crop already under stress. Economic thresholds serve as a guideline to the producer. To be effective, the plant's growth stage and growing conditions must also be considered.]] (filter log)

Monitor lizard (filter log)

Description

In the very last entry in the species list, V. spinulosus, I tried to move the local (not English) Solomon name saba that was added by an earlier user to after the citation, to avoid people being mislead to thinking that the directly following citation supports it (it doesn't -- it only supports the English name; Spiny-necked monitor). Having the local name in cursive after the English name also matches format used elsewhere in list and MOS:ITAL ("Foreign words" section). Basically:

V. spinulosus, Saba, Spiny-necked monitor<citation>

to

V. spinulosus, Spiny-necked monitor,<citation> saba

The user Esmeme has claimed I have connections with Festal82, which I assure is not the case; I'm a grad student wanting to see metamodernism gain more traction in the academic community.

The filter has a low, but unfortunately non-zero, false positive rate.

The filter stopped you because of the YouTube link; most YouTube videos are completely unsuitable for sources, and although this one is different (a news broadcast from RT (TV network), as far as I can tell), I don't know how the filter can understand this and allow anyone to add the link. However, I see this kind of link occasionally, so it's possible somehow; maybe someone familiar with the filter can suggest a way to include it? Nyttend (talk) 15:00, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
