Filter parameters

Filter ID:	967
Description: (publicly viewable)
Filter hits:	121 hits
Conditions: (documentation)	page_namespace == 4 & !("confirmed" in user_groups) & ( new_size < 50 & old_size > 300 \| new_size/(old_size + 1) < 0.1 ) & !(lcase(new_wikitext) rlike "#\sredirect\|courtesy blank\|{{(?:db-(?:attack\|g10))\s[\|}]") & page_title != "Sandbox" page_namespace == 4 & !("confirmed" in user_groups) & ( new_size < 50 & old_size > 300 \| new_size/(old_size + 1) < 0.1 ) & !(lcase(new_wikitext) rlike "#\sredirect\|courtesy blank\|{{(?:db-(?:attack\|g10))\s[\|}]") & page_title != "Sandbox"
Notes:	This happens often enough. Will monitor then see about disallowing (with a custom message pointing to RfD/AfD and explaining how to create an article). -G 2019-02-28 Mostly covered by filter 3 now actually, so disable and delete. -G 2019-03-04 Repurpose for filter for preventing blanking of Wikipedia space pages by new users. Will test on log only and see about setting to disallow. -G 2019-07-01 Excluded the Sandbox - blanking the sandbox isn't ideal, but it shouldn't be warned or disallowed. The bots are efficient, and anyone doing it repeatedly or egregiously will soon be spotted. --zz
