Filter ID:	231
Description: (publicly viewable)
Statistics:	Of the last 165,456 actions, this filter has matched 26 (0.02%). On average, its run time is 0.12 ms, and it consumes 1.6 conditions of the condition limit.
Conditions: (documentation)	!("confirmed" in user_groups) & page_namespace == 0 & ( stringy := "[\p{L}\p{N}]{50,}?"; added_lines rlike stringy & !(removed_lines rlike stringy) & !(added_lines irlike ( "(?:file\s:\|image\s:\|https?://)[^\s]?"+stringy+"\|word\|sequence\|number\|digit\|data:image" ) ) ) !("confirmed" in user_groups) & page_namespace == 0 & ( stringy := "[\p{L}\p{N}]{50,}?"; added_lines rlike stringy & !(removed_lines rlike stringy) & !(added_lines irlike ( "(?:file\s:\|image\s:\|https?://)[^\s]?"+stringy+"\|word\|sequence\|number\|digit\|data:image" ) ) )
Notes:	A long string of letters and/or numbers may be indicative of vandalism. - KoH FP: Adding links. - KoH Made the string length allowed before tagging longer, as it's catching URLs.. -Versageek Hope this check for http is better... - KoH Also check https. - KoH Virtually everything triggering this hits another filter, and this uses a lot of conditions, disabled, consider merging in to 135. -Prodego -ok -P Turn to disallow. -Sole Soul I can think of legitimate uses for 50+ character strings. From experience, in a warn-tag filter, a warning already blocks out over 75% of the vandalism. - KoH False positives are associated with the word "word". -Sole Soul Optimize for conditions. RF 20150724 Adding the word "image" per false positive. Od Mishehu 20171227 Use "\p{L}\p{N}" to catch unicode character repetition; make exceptions slightly more focused. -G 2019-02-25
