We do not disambiguate article titles that are not ambiguous. Template clutter is one of the most tragic failings of the Wikipedia project. --Mais oui! (talk) 06:00, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Just so you know ...
Usernames like this get hardblocked, using uw-uhblock Daniel Case (talk) 16:04, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Really? It wasn't an attack name, and on that occasion I assumed good faith. I was happy for them to try again with a reasonable username. I am happy for you to express an opinion, though I am also reasonably confident with my decision-making. I think that you will see that I did a range of local blocks and global locks on the day. — billinghurst  sDrewth  03:10, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi Billinghurst. Just thought I'd draw your attention to Special:AbuseFilter/271, if you haven't already seen it. -- zzuuzz (talk) 10:50, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I hadn't (if only we could categorise ). I have exported to meta, and we can evaluate its xwiki usefulness

Abuse Filter on the Article Feedback Tool
Hey there :). You're being contacted because you're an edit filter manager, At the moment, we're developing Version 5 of the Article Feedback Tool, which you may or may not have heard about. If you haven't; for the first time, this will involve a free-text box where readers can submit comments :). Obviously, there's going to be junk, and we want to minimise that junk. To do so, we're working the Abuse Filter into the tool.

For this to work, we need people to write and maintain filters. I'd be very grateful if you could take a look at the discussion here and the attached docs, and comment and contribute! Thanks :). Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 18:09, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
