- Edit kind: Removing allcaps caption regarding recently-deceased subject
- Comments: This doesn't seem like the place for editorializing about the deceased, regardless of the reason for his death (see: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/law-justice/retired-navy-doctor-identified-as-man-shot-by-seattle-police-in-tukwila-hotel/). There's probably a copyedited version that could go in the Information box, but this isn't it. Mockingbus (talk) 15:56, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Mockingbus: Hi, and welcome. Your efforts match our anti-vandalism filter Special:AbuseFilter/58. You also triggered Special:AbuseFilter/303 by not having anything on the first line. Until phab:T298672 is resolved, please do not try to revert vandalism in structured data on Commons as a new or anonymous user, just report it to COM:ANV. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 12:34, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- I think the "empty first line" might also have been a bug, but I'm not sure anymore. I remember opening the pre-vandalism version and trying to save directly from that.
- Thanks for clarifying, though; I'll track the bug involved!

I wanted to upload a sound.
- @ToTeporetermerter56: Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/192 by trying to upload an mp3 file with insufficient rights. Too many people try to upload audio files that are still copyrighted by the authors, performers, recorders, publishing companies, etc. without proper licenses from those people. Please document fully the sources and licenses of your audio uploads, and request Autopatrol group membership at COM:RFR when you think you are ready (once you have made more than 500 useful non-botlike edits); having that should allow you to upload mp3 files. In the meantime, please reencode that and other audio into Vorbis or Opus and upload them with full documentation as .ogg files. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 20:08, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

- Page name: File:Anti-LGBT.svg (File:Anti-LGBT.svg links: hist • logs • abuse log • en:File:Anti-LGBT.svg)
- Edit kind: I was trying to revert the last three edits, which are vandalism. I did this by going back three revisions and hitting "Edit", then when the warning about changing non-Wikitext data came up, selecting the option to restore the revision.
The abuse filter claimed that I was changing the first line to something other than a template. I was changing the only line in the English caption data segment, and this was already not a template.
- Comments: No comments. Stannered (talk) 15:54, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Stannered Thanks for reporting this. It seems like there is some sort of bug with something other than the abuse filter. I was able to revert the vandalism myself because it looks like the bug did not happen for me. Did you use the desktop version of the Commons website, the mobile version, or an app? —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 22:06, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
- The desktop version; thanks for looking into it and reverting the vandalism :) Stannered (talk) 23:46, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

The proposal to "Limit file overwriting to users with autopatrol rights" was accepted with many supports and one weak oppose 15:19, 23 September 2023 (UTC).

Please read MediaWiki:abusefilter-warning-file-overwriting.
