Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives

Edit was not disallowed though a change to the filter may be needed. False positive caused by citation containing the phrase "rich history". Would it be possible to exclude the contents of ref tags from this filter? – jlwoodwa (talk) 02:00, 25 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The exclusion addition would be <\/?ref (to add in cite_exemption_pattern). Also, I am pinging Ahecht as the recent maintainer of filter 1325. Codename Noreste (talk) 20:47, 25 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My only contributions to that filter were the lines to detect emojis. Pinging Queen of Hearts. --Ahecht (TALK

Could an exclusion also be added for cases where an emoji appears in the title of a citation? See 41821254 for example. Ptrnext (talk) 06:15, 29 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
