Template talk:Edit filter warning: Difference between revisions

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Please sync with sandbox (permalink, diff). Discussed at WP:EFN#Easier reporting of false positives. Please do not make any changes to MediaWiki:Abusefilter-disallowed yet, that can come later. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 23:29, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Please sync the sandbox, which adds a line break that fixes Linter errors at pages like MediaWiki talk:Abusefilter-warning-empty-edit-request. At that page, a div tag was being opened at the end of a line that began with an asterisk, which causes trouble. Thanks. – Jonesey95 (talk) 16:18, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is requested that an edit be made to the fully protected template at Template:Edit filter warning. (edit · history · last · links · sandbox · edit sandbox · sandbox history · sandbox last edit · sandbox diff · test cases · transclusion count · protection log) This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, so that an editor unfamiliar with the subject matter could complete the requested edit immediately. Edit requests to fully protected pages should only be used for edits that are either uncontroversial or supported by consensus. If the proposed edit might be controversial, discuss it on the protected page's talk page before using this template. Consider making changes first to the template's sandbox and test them thoroughly here before submitting an edit request. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request. When the request has been completed or denied, please add the |answered=yes parameter to deactivate the template.

Please change:

{{FULLPAGENAME}}

to

{{#ifeq:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|Special:CreateAccount|Special:UserLogin|{{FULLPAGENAME}}

We're seeing an edge case on WP:EFFP with account creations that are disallowed by a filter. While the user is browsing Special:CreateAccount at the time of the attempted account creation, the relevant log is at Special:UserLogin. This was recently floated at WP:EFN as a band-aid, and I think it makes to implement this pending broader discussion on whether we want to substantially rearrange the reporting flow for these sorts of disallows. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 02:03, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
