- List of noise rock bands (filter log)
- Description
- I tried to add the noise rock band "Harry Pussy" to this list. I assume the edit filter reacted because of the word "Pussy". This is a false positive since the bands name is "Harry Pussy".

- I'm not sure which recent discussion you have in mind, is it Can someone fix the archiving? If there's an obscure problem in the one section I couldn't blank, maybe that is why the archive bot refused to process this page.
It's clear that IPs are not supposed to archive namespace 1 manually, I discussed this more than ten years ago with a filter editor after it hit me on Talk:MD5, and everything was as it should be, recently updated policy, new filter, I just didn't know this, case closed.
What went wrong today, is this one section too big? If that's the issue, why could I copy it? –84.46.53.116 (talk) 04:12, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

- Draft:RAP DEVIL (filter log)
- Description
- Was trying to submit the draft for review. I got a message reminding me to add a header, I didn't, and got tripped. I tried to submit again, got the same reminder, and then the same error. For a while I was stuck in a loop of tripping the same filter over and over (according to my logs, filter 964). Furthermore, the filter isn't even "disallow", it's "warn".
