To make article feedback work more effectively, we would like to implement new abuse filters that can discourage inappropriate comments before users can post them. Here are our proposed feature requirements: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Article_feedback/Version_5/Feature_Requirements#More_abuse_filters It includes these specific requests: * Repeating characters * No punctuation or spaces * Shouting * More bad words * Short posts We should also make sure that we are now able to reliably and consistently filter out short posts of 10 characters or less, as we attempted to do earlier. If this cannot be done effectively through the abuse filter, let's implement this feature in the Article Feedback extension itself, which should be pretty easy. Simply don't make the blue 'Post your feedback' button available until you have at least 10 characters, and add a prompt next to it saying 'Your post must be at least 10 characters long'. See more info about these and other proposed filters in the 'Under consideration' section of this abuse filter spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/a/wikimedia.org/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiGAdIp7VYlbdDdKUm9naXhxOXVweWZ5YkU3Wk5lSlE#gid=0
Repeating characters: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/473 Was originally created by rsterbin; re-enabled. No punctuation or spaces: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/520 Added, but not yet enabled; will only enable after the commit that'll display the name of the filter that rejected the feedback (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/32208/) is merged Shouting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/521 Added & enabled. More bad words: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/460 I have merged all "common vandalism" filters containing foul words into this original filter & renamed it to "foul words" (to provide clearer feedback to user whose feedback is rejected - this commit has not yet been merged) Please provide a list of additional foul words if you want to expand upon the existing list. Short posts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/458 I have re-enabled the filter now that the threshold has been upped. Extremely long words: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/502 Just completing the list of currently active filters for AFT ;)
