Please refrain from attempting to make unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you were at Geoffrey R. Stone. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been disallowed by an edit filter. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 04:42, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@MJL: What am I missing? How is this vandalism? Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 04:56, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Suffusion of Yellow, shoot yeah. I meant to use {{uw-attempt1}} for this one. It was more in the context of Silenttim attempting the change 5 separate times. My apologies. –MJL ‐Talk‐^☖ 05:04, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@MJL: I didn't even know we had {{uw-attempt1}}. My point is that WP:NOTCENSORED, and if that section was going to be in the article at all (I've removed it as poorly sourced, but that's another discussion), we should be spelling out the word that Stone supposedly said in full. If you disagree, that's a content dispute, not something for any level of template. It's the filter that's in error here (though it's probably unfixable), not the user.
