Description: Reported by DatBot to AIV/TB2

Comments: Private – One or more of the filters triggered are private, and the request needs to be evaluated by an edit filter helper or manager. Looks like a false positive. Nobody (talk) 11:47, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]; Pinned – This thread has been pinned and will not be archived until this template has been removed. Looks can be deceiving. Regardless, this filter is reporting too frequently to AIV and I think this specific type of match would be better done as a tag. I'm working on this.
