 Watch for people filling in (or changing) certain fields in {{infobox civilian attack}}. Tends to be a magnet for BLP-violating edits, sometimes even from experienced editors. --Suffusion of Yellow 22:40 16 May 2022
 Exclude empty fields, whitespace adjustments, and math tags (\perp = ...). --Suffusion of Yellow 21:06 26 Jun 2022
 Try to exclude some articles about historic events; these tend to be in categories like "1857 murders", etc. --Suffusion of Yellow 21:17 26 Jun 2022
 Force generation of page_age variable for later testing; thinking of creating a warning filter targeting newer pages. --Suffusion of Yellow 02:59 5 Sep 2022
 Attempt to exclude VE dirty diffs, and changes to the references that don't change the name of the perp. Still flagging additions of sections like "==Perpetrator==", not sure if that's a bug or a feature. --Suffusion of Yellow 20:43 20 Nov 2022
 Add a tag. Tempted to share the "possible BLP issue or vandalism" tag but don't like the "or vandalism" part. --Suffusion of Yellow 19:06 19 Apr 2023
 Require at least one non-whitespace character; otherwise can trip when the name is removed, e.g. [[Special:AbuseLog/34904486]]. --Suffusion of Yellow 19:35 19 Apr 2023
 Use norm() to avoid tripping on changes to punctuation, capitalization, etc. Now needs an explicit check for a new section. --Suffusion of Yellow 18:20 3 May 2023
 Ignore HTML comments. --Suffusion of Yellow 20:20 3 May 2023
 Ignore blanking the field (thought I fixed that already, but managed to trip the filter myself...) --Suffusion of Yellow 22:45 3 May 2023
 Ignore flag templates; not really a BLP issue with wrongly accusing a whole country. --Suffusion of Yellow 18:42 7 May 2023
 Exclude "in year" categories like [[:Category:Conflicts in 1849]]. --Suffusion of Yellow 18:54 7 May 2023
 Check for date categories in new_wikitext, not old_wikitext, otherwise flags creation of articles about historical events. --Suffusion of Yellow 20:26 7 May 2023
++"arrests", part of {{infobox event}}. --Suffusion of Yellow 20:24 8 May 2023
