Comments: Consider requesting on the article's talk page; please provide the necessary references. See above. – --pro-anti-air ––>(talk)<–– 16:14, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

there is no need for that. every edit has already a reference attached. that was a false positive. 1337.d4nd135 (talk) 16:34, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Pinned – This thread has been pinned and will not be archived until this template has been removed. Almost certainly a false positive. I'm not confident in publishing it though since it causes 6 cite errors. – 45dogs (they/them) (talk page) 16:50, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

cite errors are caused by the reference clean-up. some points in the article were over-referenced since most of the information is based on concrete facts and reliable sources. i missed some points on removing the reference tags and hoped a bot would do the deed. 1337.d4nd135 (talk) 17:50, 28 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

hello, can we go thru with edits plz. i will handle the citation issues asap. this article needs an update since there are fresh news. 1337.d4nd135 (talk) 19:08, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Done and a change to the filter may be needed. Since this edit clearly doesn't fill the page with obscenities, this filter might need to be changed – 45dogs (they/them) (talk page) 21:50, 29 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

thanks 1337.d4nd135 (talk) 10:13, 30 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like it didn't like https://www.savunmasanayist.com/altayin-birim-maliyeti-cok-mu-yuksek/. I'm testing a filter change to rule out cases where the matches to the obscenity filter are a small proportion of the added text. --Ahecht (TALK
