i havent used any of these and i am not doing what i was warned about Geocities, Google Drive, Livejournal, Rootsweb, WordPress.com.

Edit was not disallowed and the filter appears to be working properly. Your edits did go through, but the sources you cited (Quora, Medium, Google Sites, LinkedIn) are all unreliable as they are self-published and/or user-generated. I invite you to check Wikipedia:Reliable sources to have a better idea of what we are looking for. – Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 17:12, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I was trying to go into specifics about the Torode scandal

Consider requesting on the article's talk page; please provide the necessary references. Not done, neither source explicitly refers to the n-word. If that was actually the word, then WP:NOTCENSORED applies (at least in the body, not sure if the lead needs that detail), but metro.co.uk isn't generally reliable. – Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 18:44, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Description: I was trying to publish minor changes to an article I was asked to review. There were three suggested links and I approved two of the three. The last one I rejected because I felt "control valve" was something many people already know about; therefore, no link needed. For whatever reason, it was flagged as an error.

I'm brand new as a contributor to the platform and had clicked on the series of tasks that all brand-new contributors are prompted to complete (which is what I mean by "asked to review"), the first set of which involve deciding whether certain terms should be linked or not. I completed several such tasks and this was the only one in which the change was flagged. DrJoePerez (talk) 03:21, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, you're referring to the newcomer tasks. Thought it might have been something else. No worries. Aydo h8^{[what have I done now?]} 01:59, 19 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
