Notes:
This filter looks for a sentence of the form ("[title] is a ...") and variations thereof. It tries to exclude redirects, lists, disambiguation pages, and surnames. Many new articles without a topic sentence turn out to be vandalism or spam. Still making sure it works correctly and is needed. Add "on" to not filter articles depicting events "On Jan 1. 2000, ..." this should be merged with filter 96 --zzuuzz Z, I don't think so. This filter has pretty intricate syntax; to merge it would make it even more incomprehensible. Also, no need to mark private. - KoH rearranged to avoid use of set_var since I couldn't get that function to work in testing, just a hunch to try and fix false positives - Evil saltine exclude new articles that consist of nothing but an infobox - this is rarely vandalism - Evil saltine Disambiguation = may refer to. - KoH Catch only users with less than 50 edits. - KoH {{underconstruction}}/{{construction}}. - KoH Any form of refer to is OK. - KoH Exclude article titles of the form "a in b", for example "Passenger vehicles in the United States". - ES Allow disambiguation with colon at end of line - ES Better new article check. - KoH Short circuit logic. - KoH Exclude articles with either open paren or comma in title (faster than stripping them) - ES Exclude articles already covered by filter 98 "Very short new article". add tag "new article with no mention of title", also used by 96 - Cen add "[[:alpha:]\.]*" to allow for domain name in title disabling this filter, it doesn't catch that much and consumes more than its share of conditions. - Evil saltine Marked as deleted. - Ruslik
