This change uses semantic markup, remove reliance on {{font}} (to make it less of a high-risk template), and fixes MOS:LISTGAP issues (to ensure it works as intended, please copy/paste from the edit window). I also made a substantive change to make it clear you should report a false positive iff the person you were trying to add is notable. Thanks! House Blaster^talk 20:18, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I request the following changes to this filter message:

Add a sentence (This is the consistent with the triggering condition of the filter and written in {{EFFP|redlink}}, so I believe it should reflect consensus):
In general, "notable people" lists and similar are only meant for people who already have Wikipedia articles about them.
Modify the second bullet point (Put "provide reliable sources backing up your claim" first):
If you were adding a notable name to a list and you can provide reliable sources backing up your claim, please go here in order to request someone to add the name for you.

Slightly more descriptive message and hopefully should slow down DAB pages from ending up in a false positive report. EggRoll97 ^(talk) 01:06, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@EggRoll97: This change was good, though is it an intentional choice to tell people to report it as an error if they have reliable sources instead of just telling them to add it as a reference (which is allowed by the filter)?

I'm ignoring that EFFPR is protected and the report error button wouldn't even work, because that's hopefully temporary. – 2804:F14:8084:CE01:A405:1023:40F:3702 (talk) 01:24, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Recording that I've seen this. It is temporary, though I think reducing the amount of reports into false positives is probably worth the mild redirection. EggRoll97 ^(talk) 01:56, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
