On https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/70?uselang=en There is the following line ---- Flags: Warning: This filter was automatically disabled as a safety measure. It reached the limit of matching more than 5.00% of actions. ---- But a few lines above it has this: ---- Statistics: Of the last 3,518 actions, this filter has matched 2 (0.06%). On average, its run time is 1.99 ms, and it consumes 288 conditions of the condition limit. ---- Obviously, 0.06% < 5.00%, so one of the message is wrong. Besides, the latest edit to that filter was on 20:33, 15 July 2013, but there is no timestamp indicating when that warning was added. The filter's log has many (correct) detections since the last edit was made: https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseLog?dir=prev&wpSearchFilter=70&offset=20130715203331&uselang=en and the option "Enable this filter" is still marked ([x] instead of [ ]), indicating it is indeed enabled. If the extension indeed disabled the filter, but enabled it again automatically at some point, it should say so. And if it didn't disable the filter, it should not say it is disabled. The current situation is confusing.
I edited that filter yesterday[1], and now the message is gone. Whatever the underlying problem is, which makes the filter not to be disabled, at least the interface is updated once we edit the filter (but the message shouldn't be displayed in the first place, if the filter is kept enabled...)

This happened again with another filter, per https://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=37362443
