Trying to add an information page for Music Artist ZWrld

Not done though a change to the filter may be needed. ZWrld, you aren't notable. But this filter really shouldn't be preventing moves into draftspace. – 45dogs (they/them) (talk page) 07:46, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

I am a notable person, I’m a music artist and trying to get a Wikipedia page made. I have music on several music platforms, and am putting my social media on there as well as that’s how I connect with fans, I have people that listen to the music, and have a google knowledge panel.

Checking with the edit filter managers to see if changes need to be made. Maybe we could add something like this so moves from user space to draft space aren’t affected?

  moved_from_namespace
== 2 &
  moved_to_namespace == 118

The section header above caused the bot to make it its own report, and archived it. I've restored it, and (pin removed), for the bot. --pro-anti-air ––>(talk)<–– 18:04, 8 December 2025 (UTC)

@Illusion Flame, Pro-anti-air, and 45dogs: See also the section below where I've effectively said the same thing, but when moving from your own userpage to a draft page, it would be appropriate to change the title to the actual subject of the draft article, not Draft:ZWrld. In this case, the titling was correct, but the move was not, as ZWrld should not be making articles to promote themselves. No filter change applied. EggRoll97 ^(talk) 23:26, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

Looksmaxxing (filter log) (user filter log)

Description

I am attempting to identify and document the contemporary online figures who have played a significant role in popularizing the concept of “looksmaxxing” within modern internet and youth culture. These individuals are frequently cited in discussions surrounding the spread of looksmaxxing-related ideas across social media platforms and online communities. The intention is not to endorse these viewpoints, but rather to provide contextual information regarding how the concept has entered mainstream awareness and which prominent influencers have contributed to its visibility. Any additions would, of course, be supported by reliable secondary sources in accordance with Wikipedia’s sourcing and notability guidelines.

Try formatting your comments in coherent sentences separated by periods and other punctuation. The filter detects excessively long sentences lacking these basic features of English grammar. Also, please be aware that your personal experiences and the mere fact that you have history books cannot be used to support any edit to a Wikipedia article.

Private – One or more of the filters triggered are private, and the request needs to be evaluated by an edit filter helper or manager. I merged these two reports since they are identical (the user apparently attempted to get around the filter by registering an account). This is clearly a false positive with regard to filter 384, as Fighting Cocks GAA is a real club in this league ("cocks" is the triggering word). A hidden filter is also tripped by this edit though, and I do not have access to see whether or not these edits are also a false positive with regard to that, so I have not performed the disallowed edit pending review by a filter helper/manager. jcgoble3 (talk) 06:33, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

No need, I've removed the report above. --pro-anti-air ––>(talk)<–– 16:01, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

Wait, I've just realized, the filter isn't private. Consider requesting on the article's talk page; please provide the necessary references.

--pro-anti-air ––>(talk)<–– 18:53, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

There's two filters being tripped, one public (clearly a false positive that is probably not worth adjusting the filter for) and one private. A helper/manager needs to check the private filter to see if any action with regard to its purpose is needed. jcgoble3 (talk) 18:56, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

Yes but the private filter isn't set to disallow, and it's a very wide filter, so it doesn't really apply here. --pro-anti-air ––>(talk)<–– 18:57, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

Checked, talk page referral endorsed for this FP report. EggRoll97 ^(talk) 23:22, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

I already made the edit here, partly because they kept filing reports, but mostly since the edit is good-faithed. --pro-anti-air ––>(talk)<–– 23:24, 15 December 2025 (UTC)
