 * Structural Biochemistry/Chromatography/Thin Layer


 * Description
 * I was editing a wikibooks page on thin layer chromatography under the major headline of structural biochemistry. This contribution in which I was attempting to make was to include a little more information about the retardation factor between a solvent and a compound of interest in climbing up a silica based gel. This contribution also included a descriptive picture, as well as a formula in which to actually calculate the retardation factor.

It was the "retardation factor" that triggered the filter due to it trying to detect vandalism with the word "retard" in it. I've adjusted the filter so that it should not affect you again. I also added the text to the page you were attempting to add. Sorry for the inconvenience. – Adrignola talk 13:05, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

 * I've moved the page from your userspace into the book. I will look at the edit filter to check why it was triggered. Thanks. QU TalkQu 22:16, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * It was triggering because of the "[]" in the code, which was triggering the "test edit" filter, as the "[]" is a result of one of the buttons you see below the edit box. Sometimes vandals will go and try to edit a page and hit a bunch of the toolbar buttons.  That filter was designed to catch that.  I removed the portion of it that would look for the "[]" since I see it's used often in C++ code. – Adrignola talk 00:48, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Description
 * Editing a page about using SSH connections, I added a simple SSH connection command, like this:

ssh live@192.168.1.74 Clearly that looks a bit like an email address, though it didn't occur to me until the filter shouted at me. I don't know if there's a way to distinguish this from email address entry, so I'm not sure it'll be possible to fix this false positive; but I'm reporting it FYI. Thanks.

Hmm... this would be tricky to distinguish from a email address, perhaps we can check to see if a line begins with 'ssh', 'scp', 'sftp', etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thenub314 (talk • contribs) 18:15, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

I've tweaked the filter to be more like the link spam test and made it only add a tag for manual checking. --dark lama  19:36, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Jeep Liberty/Performance


 * Description
 * This is a discussion of performance enhancements available for the Jeep Liberty. The last sentence of the paragraph currently states that there is only one vendor of ECU flash updates for the Liberty Diesel.  Having been investigating this update for my Liberty, I am aware of at least one other vendor of ECU flash updates:  Green Diesel Engineering.

I edited the last sentence to read as follows: "The ECU on the 2.8L CRD is made by Bosch, and at this time there are at least two companies offering a re-flash for the CRD ECU: one is Green Diesel Engineering and the other is INMOTION TUNING."

However, when I attempted to save this edited sentence, it was flagged by the automatic program as being Unconstructive.

Note: Regrettably, due to problems with the login program, I was unable to login with my Wikipedia username, Biscuiteater57, nor was I able to register separately under my Wikipedia username (which I prefer to do). I received error messages that the username already exists in the unified user login, but also that the username does not exist. I have submitted a trouble ticket about this problem.

 * Chess Opening Theory/1. c4/1...e5/2. Nc3/2...Nf6


 * Description
 * I was editing the page > the content under the title "McComiskey"

(McComiskey, Bruce. "Disassembling Plato's Critique of Rhetoric in the Gorgias (447a-466a)." Rhetoric Review 11 (1992): 79-90. McComiskey concurs that Plato scholars do not contest Plato’s disdain for the sophists. However, Plato’s treatment of sophist rhetoric, particularly that of Gorgias, the Leontini rhetorician, divides scholars: some—Kathleen Freeman, Terence Irwin, and W.H. Thompson among others—read Plato’s treatment of Gorgias the sophist as fair and accurate; conversely, McComiskey, drawing his argument from extant fragments of Gorgias, sees these views as distorted and unfounded. Plato presents this distorted view of Gorgias’ rhetoric to gain the favor of an audience leery of anti-democratic sentiments. Plato’s audience would have memories of the tyranny of the Four Hundred and of the tyranny of the Thirty freshly in mind. These bloody revolts temporary supplanted Greek democracy with a Socrates-Plato endorsed oligarchy. Gorgias the sophist supported democracy; thus, Plato’s readers were unlikely to accept Socrates’ “defeat” of Gorgias if Plato did not depict Gorgias’ rhetoric in a conflicting and absurd light. McComiskey explains that unlike Socrates and Plato whose epistemology is foundational, based on some “external reality or immutable truth” against which to compare, to weigh impressions, Gorgias the sophist adheres to a relativistic epistemology based on the kairotic, the opportune, moment. Since human’s understanding of reality is filtered through the distortion of our senses, a kairotic moment is necessary to “unite disparate subjective” images (205). McComiskey concludes that Plato’s rendering of Gorgias’ rhetoric could never be supported by Gorgias’ the sophist’s relativistic epistemology.)

I think it was the URL spam (copy paste of a section of links I had on another page) the filter will not detect commutative edits (of the same content), I've completed the action and I doubt that a change in the filter would be required or result in improvement (even so a reviewer should be considered trustworthy enough to be excluded from this type of spam detection, or at least susceptible to engage in constructive dialog if any deviation is detected, and it would be ground to have the reviewer status removed). --Panic (discuss • contribs) 00:13, 23 September 2011 (UTC)

 * I believe, after looking a little more, that this filter prevents unregistered users from creating lots of new pages within a short space of time. I have lowered the time that this filter kicks in.  The filter will now allow unregistered users to create 2 new pages every 10 minutes.  If this is an inconvenience then maybe it could be lowered further otherwise I would suggest logging in or registering an account.--ЗAНИA [[Image:Flag_of_Estonia.svg|15px]]talk 21:46, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

I suspect that it doesn't allow very new users to create a user page with external links until they've made a few edits.

 * A quick look tells me that you triggered the filter because you created a new account and quickly created a new page with an external link. If you had waited a while (say, 20 minutes) or made edits elsewhere first then it would have allowed it.  This filter is necessary at the moment because daily we receive a substantial amount of spam from spambots which make similar edits.  I'm sorry you were inconvenienced - hopefully everything will be fine for you from now on.--ЗAНИA [[Image:Flag_of_Estonia.svg|15px]]talk 19:19, 9 May 2014 (UTC)

Maintaining Sort Order
Python does not provide modules like C++'s set and map data types as part of its standard library. This is a concious decision on the part of Guido, et al to preserve "one obvious way to do it." Instead Python delegates this task to third-party libraries that are available on the Python Package Index. These libraries use various techniques to maintain list, dict, and set types in sorted order. Maintaining order using a specialized data structure can avoid very slow behavior (quadratic run-time) in the naive approach of editing and constantly re-sorting. Several implementations are described here.


 * Python SortedContainers Module - Pure-Python implementation that is fast-as-C implementations. Implements sorted list, dict, and set data types. Testing includes 100% code coverage and hours of stress. Documentation includes full API reference, performance comparison, and contributing/development guidelines.
 * Python rbtree Module - Provides a fast, C-implementation for dict and set data types. Based on a red-black tree implementation.
 * Python treap Module - Provides a sorted dict data type. Uses a treap for implementation and improves performance using Cython.
 * Python bintrees Module - Provides several tree-based implementations for dict and set data types. Fastest implementations are based on AVL and Red-Black trees. Implemented in C. Extends the conventional API to provide set operations for dict data types.
 * Python banyan Module - Provides a fast, C-implementation for dict and set data types.
 * Python skiplistcollections Module - Pure-Python implementation based on skip-lists providing a limited API for dict and set data types.
 * Python blist Module - Provides sorted list, dict and set data types based on the "blist" data type, a B-tree implementation. Implemented in Python and C.

Trying to add a link(1) from the "IT" acronym wiki page to clarify certification terminology to the A+ certification wiki page, and error led me here. (1)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_technology -- tried to add this link to A+ paragraph(related wiki page) to define the rem "IT"-- a colleague in the APA recently asked what the term "IT" meant. Added an extended resource for professionals who are nominally engaged with regard to "IT" community technical terminology. As a highly educated professional editor, I felt this liaison would enhance and expedite the exchange of accurate and timely information.

Thank you.

 * ===Currency===

Currency refers to any form of money when it is actually used as a medium of exchange, most commonly represented in banknotes, coins, and now digital forms. A currency is a system of money where in most cases is produced and monitored by governments. The European euro, US dollar, Australian Dollar, Russian Ruble, Bitcoin and many other things fit under this definition. The values of the independent currencies often are influenced by each other in a global market driven by trade and foreign exchange markets. Governments often give value to banknotes, referred to by some as fiat money. Some currencies, like the US dollar, is used as a form of currency in some lesser developed nations over the hyper-inflated money printed by their state. Usually monetary values remain within the boundaries of its intended nations and states.

Alternative Currency
Some forms of currency are given value by the global market and have no tie to a state, namely commodities such as gold, silver, and oil as well as stocks, bonds, derivatives, and cryptocurrencies. These currencies can be traded on the global markets, some being traded at every hour of the day. Physical commodities are given value by their practical uses, appearance, and even superstitions, regardless, they are transacted with and accepted as payment.

Bitcoin is a form of cryptocurrency, it is given value via the inherent principle of scarcity programmed at its core. Bitcoin is limited by computing power of its competitive network and the collaborative confirmation by the millions of nodes in its network of every single transaction. Each in every bitcoin transaction is in a sense, public information.

 * I'm thinking it would be very useful to describe a concrete password policy that could be generally useful to anyone for personal use. For example, my current favorite is the one advocated by https://xkcd.com/936/, implemented with the aid of a password generator like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.me.eddies.apps.passphrase or http://world.std.com/~reinhold/diceware.html . This should be the policy that could be used for the master key of the password manager.

 * By trying to add 3 URLs in one edit, and as a new editor, it is being detected as potential spam. Make the edit without the URLs first. However, also bear in mind we don't allow promotional links or ones of little value. Adding a link to Google Play almost certainly falls into this category.

 * Understood, thank you for the clarifications. I'll do as you suggest. --Psequeirag (discuss • contribs) 14:22, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

 * JackPotte, this does not look spammy at all, but I don't know how to solve this problem for this user. Can you help? --Atcovi (Talk - Contribs) 14:45, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes this is a false positive, I propose to allow the URL to the sister projects to solve it. JackPotte (discuss • contribs) 15:14, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
