Hello, it's me, EpicWikipedian. I would like to suggest a change to this system message, because it often also appears when removing a large amount of information but the edit is constructive, as well. The message should be changed to:
{{edit filter warning |filter = 30 |action = warn |friendly = yes |text = <big>'''Warning'''</big>: An automated filter has identified this edit as removing a large amount of content. While some material on Wikipedia should be removed, such as [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandalism]] and [[Wikipedia:BLP|false or libelous information]], we discourage removal of content without a valid reason. If you believe that your removal is constructive, please go to the bottom of this page and press 'Save page' to continue (be sure to enter an [[help:edit summary|edit summary]] if you have not done so already). If you did not remove a large amount of content, and you believe that this edit is constructive, please [[Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives|report this error]]. }}
Which looks like:
Warning: An automated filter has identified this edit as removing a large amount of content. While some material on Wikipedia should be removed, such as vandalism and false or libelous information, we discourage removal of content without a valid reason. If you believe that your removal is constructive, please go to the bottom of this page and press 'Save page' to continue (be sure to enter an edit summary if you have not done so already). If you did not remove a large amount of content, and you believe that this edit is constructive, please report this error. |
