Broken Abuse Filter
Hi guys,

can you please have a look at the AbuseFilter and fix the wrong blocks, which it is making? E.g. see the block of my IP 88.130... from today (December 2nd), 13:30 o'clock.

I was answering a support request on the Support Desk and in the answer I wanted to include a link to an older Support Topic. The topic name is one of these random numbers. As soon as I try to point to a topic, it incorrectly blocks me, telling me, I would be a spam bot doing a mass attack.

It would be great, if this broken spam filter could be fixed, so that it at least properly allows mediawiki.org links again.

Cheers!

 * Internal links inside mediawiki.org also are not working correctly. This misconfiguration currently prevents me from helping users at the Support Desk. --88.130.73.233 15:45, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Hello! Thanks for mentioning the problem here, and sorry for any inconvenience :( I changed the filter to not block users anymore and the filter rules should be more specific when identifying the real spam and let you post links :) Please give me some feedback, if you still have problems :) Best! --Florianschmidtwelzow (talk) 16:45, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Florian,
 * it is better now, but the problem is not yet solved.
 * Links to Flow topics and internal links with twice two square brackets seem to be working correctly now.
 * What is not working yet, are external links to mediawiki.org. E.g. a link to api.php or a link to the history function with an old revision or so. --88.130.73.233 19:00, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
