- Chambers Street–World Trade Center/Park Place (New York City Subway) (filter log)
- Description
- I am trying to edit a {{routemap}}, but the syntax that I was trying to add into the route map includes code like
uKRW+l\uKRWgr+l\uKRWgr\uSTR\uSTR
, which bring up File:BSicon uKRW+l.svg, File:BSicon uKRWgr+l.svg, File:BSicon uKRWg+r.svg, File:BSicon uSTR.svg, and File:BSicon uSTR.svg, respectively. Then, I got the error message and wasn't able to update the map. Trying to substitute any {{BS-number}} templates like {{BS4}} and {{BS5}} will also give the same result as adding the code directly into the route map, but also results in the same error message.- Also, similar issues with route map templates were reported by 71.198.231.208 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) above.

- Description
- Trying to request an edit of Comet Ping Pong page.
Some sources, including "The Washington Times" and "RT" have published articles that neither confirm nor deny the allegations. Douglas Ernst of the "Washington Times" writes, "Reddit, YouTube, and Twitter users claim that “PizzaGate” should not be dismissed as a baseless conspiracy theory, given bizarre and sexually suggestive images from Mr. Alefantis’ own Instagram account (now set to private). YouTube videos taken from inside Comet Ping Pong, the sexual and macabre art commissioned for the restaurant’s promotional material, and the Clinton campaign’s ties to billionaire Jeffrey Epstein and Anthony Weiner have also fueled online calls for an FBI investigation."[1] [2]

- Currently there is an entry "Brain fog" in which the explanation is clearly actually referring to "Brain f*g syndrome" where the word f*g happens to be a common slur that has apprently tripped up this filter. There is a wiki page for Brain fag syndrome. So I changed the heading to Brain f*g syndrome, provided a cross reference to the main wiki page on the syndrome, etc. And I added a new heading for Brain fog, with cross references for the correct description of that condition. Brain fog is a very general term. Brain f*g syndrome, nowadays, is an obscure (and controversial?) condition specific to West Africa.

Well, you shouldn't. Wikipedia doesn't carry contact information about its subjects aside from a link to their website. Someguy1221 (talk) 11:12, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

I was just trying to make an edit suggestion and you told me the information was incorrect. It was the Merrimack Valley and I was telling the person they are missing numerous cities. The city of Methuen, MA should be added because it contains the lowest point in the Merrimack Valley. ...this is taught in geography classes in this area. There is even a section of Methuen referred to as The Valley for this reason. I don't know why you flagged my suggested correction

- External links are forbidden on disambiguation pages; they are only to help a reader choose among Wikipedia articles. Likewise (per WP:DABREF), do not include sources; they should go on the pointed-to page. If you try again without the external links,it should work. 71.41.210.146 (talk) 04:48, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

- Chambered nautilus (filter log)
- Description
- I attempted to add additional sections detailing the diet of the Chambered Nautilus, as well as small segments on its feeding habits and habitat. I have also expanded the shell function section to include its growth pattern. I was attempting to add the following sections:
The range of the chambered nautilus encompasses much of the south Pacific; It has been found near reefs and on the seafloor off of the coasts of Australia, Japan, and Micronesia.[1]
Diet The chambered Nautilus is a carnivore, and feeds on both underwater carrion and detritus, as well as living shellfish and crab.[1] Specimens have been caught eating dead dogs, chickens, crushed crayfish, and dead fish. Essentially scavengers, chambered nautiluses have been described as eating "anything that smells".[1] This food is stored in a stomach-like organ known as a crop, which can store food for a great deal of time without it denaturing.[1]
The chambered Nautilus inhabits different segments of the shell as it grows, continuously growing new, larger "cells" into which it moves its internal organs as it grows in maturity.[1] All of the smaller chambers, once uninhabited, are used in the method described above to regulate depth.[1]

- @79.74.100.164: Please fill in the false positive report! Complaints tend to get ignored if the form isn't filled out. That said, in both Wide-Eye and Fourways Farm, it looks like a false positive to a constructive, good faith edit. The filter doesn't seem to like the term "weather-cock". (For some reason, a lot of people just like typing random obscenities into Wikipedia, so words like "dick" and "cock" from people with no edit history raise alarms even though they have legitimate uses.)
- I've worked around the problem by using the
{{text}}
template. If you can read the docs and figure out how, you're not a low-effort vandal. 71.41.210.146 (talk) 04:30, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
