- Done and a change to the filter may be needed. Diddy Kong (the small monkey character) triggered the filter intended for the not-so-popular Diddy – '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 14:10, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
- (pin removed) Courtesy ping: EggRoll97, who last modified the filter. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 14:11, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
- Note: I have this regex idea that will no longer trip on Diddy Kong by using a negative lookahead:
sean (?:\"?diddy\"? )?(?:combs|john)|(?:p )?didd(?:ler|y)(?! kong)|puff daddy
. Codename Noreste 🤔 Talk 19:21, 5 December 2024 (UTC)- I would suggest using
\s
instead of a few spaces, but that is a minor suggestion, changing the regex tosean\s?(?:\"?diddy\"?\s?)?(?:combs|john)|(?:p\s?)?didd(?:ler|y)(?!\skong)|puff\sdaddy
, but otherwise the negative lookahead idea seems solid. – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 19:36, 5 December 2024 (UTC)- Maybe
?
without\s?
would perform the same function? Codename Noreste 🤔 Talk 19:37, 5 December 2024 (UTC)?
would only match spaces while\s?
matches enters, spaces, carriage returns, and a wider variety of things. – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 19:44, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

- Market maker (filter log) (user filter log)
- Description
- I tried updating this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Market_maker, with this paragraph in "Lack of Regulation and Oversight" sub-section:
"The topic has gained increased relevance following recent investigations by the FBI into prominent market makers, including GotBit and CLS Global.[1] These high-profile cases have sparked widespread concerns among crypto projects regarding the legality of specific market-making practices, demonstrating that regulators are highly sophisticated and competent in detecting and addressing illegal market-making practices, such as wash trading, fraud, and market manipulation, regardless of attempts to obscure them.[2]"

Otherwise the page is not relevant. I just started contributing, so am not sure if i submitted this form correctly, sorry ^^
