Wikibooks has several automated filters meant to prevent spam and vandals; sometimes these inadvertently catch non-spammers, especially very new users. I recommend making smaller edits at a time until you are eventually autoconfirmed. —Kittycataclysm (discuss • contribs) 01:57, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

BTW, I realise someone is probably going to say "you can't because you are a new user please wait a few days". Can someone add the link for me? Also, wouldn't this edit filter be better if it took into account one's global contributions? A new user which has already made significant contributions on Wikipedia/etc is probably not a spammer. SomethingForDeletion (discuss • contribs) 23:28, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

@Leaderboard I'm not savvy enough to know this, but is there any way to take into account someone's global edits in the edit filter? My guess is no, but you would know better. —Kittycataclysm (discuss • contribs) 14:35, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

Template:Re Unless the filter itself is global, no. It is however possible to take into account global user groups, but that won't apply for the vast majority of users (it's useful for groups such as global rollback who can then use their rights here without being hit by the filter).

Adding external links as required by my assignment and computer said no

For reference to other admins, this IP tried to paste the following under a "See also" section on Transportation Planning Casebook/Fast(er) Rail in NSW. I'll leave it to others as to whether these links are appropriate or not, as I'm a sysop primarily for anti-vandalism purposes.

Thanks @SHB2000! For the IP, what is the purpose of including these external links as is? If it is for the purpose of references/citations, I'd recommend using the dedicated reference tool for that. I'm curious what the actual requirement in the assignment is. —Kittycataclysm (discuss • contribs) 12:02, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Me too – and if these do have to be linked, is the YouTube link really necessary? (as someone who follows NSW HSR off-wiki, I also question if it's the one of the best off-wiki links) --SHB2000 (discuss • contribs) 12:05, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Well I'm done trying. If you fix this filter bump this thread.

Hello! My best guess about what happened is that you unwittingly tripped a global anti-vandalism filter since one of your edits contained profanity, and then repeated editing attempts tripped wikibooks-specific repeated vandalism filters. I'm not an expert on the edit filters, so someone with more experience may correct me. If you'd like to do more significant editing without the risk of tripping filters designed for IP vandals, you may wish to create an account.

You can come back and add them, one or two at a time, and after a few days the system will recognise that you are not trying to spam.

@Leaderboard: do you know why this pinged a filter? It does seem like a reasonable use of the sandbox. —Kittycataclysm (discuss • contribs) 19:22, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

Template:Re, the IP hit filter 18 - that's a simple rate filter. Seemed like the user was trying to make (to the filter) quick edits; we should improve this. Leaderboard (discuss • contribs) 17:40, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Got it, thanks! Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to go about making this kind of change. —Kittycataclysm (discuss • contribs) 00:23, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

Description: I was fleshing out part of the beginner methods section, since it had some material that was still in raw point form, and the instructions were incomplete. The link I provided, which triggered the spam filter, is a tutorial with diagrams that do a better job of explaining these steps. I would have added it as a citation, but I used a link to follow the style of the rest of the section.

Hi Template:Ping! I'd recommend using citations over simply inserting links. I believe it is more appropriate for the book format and the way the link is being used. Cheers —Kittycataclysm (discuss • contribs) 00:28, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

I agree that citations would be better, however that clashes with the format of the existing text. Spindown (discuss • contribs) 21:35, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

→I am a MH Volunteer. FYI, this user requested a new wiki, Global permissions and Stewardship within a day. And He/She referred to this account. So by coincident Xeverything11 confirmed my suspicion. Said user account is now disabled. I hope this takes away the awkward feeling it must give to have an imposter using your on-wiki presence. Kind regards, ~~~~←

Not even "This user has been globally locked at MH." can be posted in that topic.

Template:Ping Do you know why this user and the user below encountered this issue with my talk page? The filter it tripped doesn't seem to be local. Thanks! —Kittycataclysm (discuss • contribs) 18:33, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Template:Re, it's a global filter maintained by Template:Re - you probably can't see it because it's a hidden global filter. To Operator873: the filter message says that you intended to disable it, but you enabled it later. Can you adjust the filter to make use of global edit counts at least? Also, Kittycataclysm, you may want to apply for abuse filter helper as that will allow you to view these global filters if this helps you in diagnosing these issues better (but it's optional).

@Leaderboard I cannot. I'm no longer a steward, nor meta sysop. I'd suggest requesting that filter be disabled on Meta:SRM for assistance. Operator873 (discuss • contribs) 04:05, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Template:Re - can you try your previous edit on Physics again? Regarding the issue with Template:Re, the problem is that she (alongside a few other contributors) has been the target of harassment, which is why that edit was blocked. This will no longer happen once you get some experience. Leaderboard (discuss • contribs) 07:43, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

I've amended the abuse filter to set this wiki as an exception (in addition to enwikivoyage), but Leaderboard has said everything that you [TheMonkeyEatsBananas] need to know. --SHB2000 (discuss • contribs) 07:50, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

@Leaderboard Thank you for your reply.

Unfortunately with the Physics project, I didn't back up my work immediately before saving it. However, with about 20-30 minutes of spare time, I'll probably be able to attempt my edit again on the Unit 1 subpage of the project. I'll try this after I send this reply.

Also, regarding harassment of any user on Wikimedia, that's particularly awful, and I hope the broader community is seeking to find a solution to further limit and prevent such activity. TheMonkeyEatsBananas (discuss • contribs) 08:22, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

You can usually check the content of what you wrote before it was blocked on Special:AbuseLog. --SHB2000 (discuss • contribs) 09:06, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Thank you. To note, I don't yet have the permissions for that as my account is still under four days old. I was able to rewrite what I had from the back-up and I ran into the same error, specifically "IP Large Edits." Would the best approach for transferring the content be to simply wait until I'm a confirmed user? TheMonkeyEatsBananas (discuss • contribs) 09:23, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, I would say just wait till July 9 and then you'll become an autoconfirmed user. Unfortunately, we don't have any bureaucrats on this wiki to manually confirm you. --SHB2000 (discuss • contribs) 09:43, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

Description: An introduction to classical mechanics with visual content from the website Bonk.io, a multiplayer physics game with a freely licensed policy for user-generated content. Although it uses examples from a video game as visual aids, the textbook only discusses real-world physics.

The filtered edit was a transfer of Unit 1 of the textbook from the Bonk.io Wiki, a wiki under Fandom, Inc., to Wikibooks. To note, I am the only contributor of the original textbook content. My intention was to move the content from the Bonk.io Wiki to a more appropriate location and continue my work on the project here.

Thank you for your consideration.
