Filter ID:	3
Description: (publicly viewable)
Statistics:	Of the last 192,958 actions, this filter has matched 79 (0.04%). On average, its run time is 0.43 ms, and it consumes 1.3 conditions of the condition limit.
Conditions: (documentation)	!("autoconfirmed" in user_groups) & new_size < 50 & old_size > 500 & article_namespace == 0 & !(user_name in article_recent_contributors) & !contains_any(lcase(added_lines),"#redirect", "{{db-attack}}", "{{db-g10}}") !("autoconfirmed" in user_groups) & new_size < 50 & old_size > 500 & article_namespace == 0 & !(user_name in article_recent_contributors) & !contains_any(lcase(added_lines),"#redirect", "{{db-attack}}", "{{db-g10}}")
Notes:	Should there be a note in the warning about what to do if you're a BLP subject attempting to blank your own article? Also, yay, first comment! - east These notes are not private, by the way. The false positives page has not been created yet, so the warning page is incomplete. I deactivated the action 'warn'. Re-enabled after creating it -- Andrew We really need a better way to talk. Do tildes work here? ~~~ (east) Guess not :'( Ignore if editor is the only editor of the page (faked by checking last 10 editors) Redefine blanking as any size under 50, where the page started at >500 (min delta of 450) Logic fixes, some of the conditions were redundant - Hersfold Note that filter applies only to new users. (eg non autoconfirmed but new user is shorter) Optimizing - Hersfold Add redirect avoidance, necessary if this is going to allow pages to not be fully blank. - DF changed "user_name in article_recent_contributors" to "!(user_name in article_recent_contributors)" - Hersfold Adding & !(user_name == 69.226.103.13) to temporarily exempt that IP address from this filter, see my talk page for details. - Hersfold Scratch that, removing per Prodego's comments on filter 30. If it got removed there, I shouldn't be adding it here. - Hersfold I added an exception for {{db-attack}} template. - Ruslik I added an exception for {{db-g10}} template. - Od Mishehu Optimization of the code. - Ruslik Moved new size check before namespace check - rationale very few edits result in size < 50, most are to namespace 0. Moved old size before namespace check - rationale _given_ new size< 50 very few edits will have oldsize > 500 (especially by new users), however most will be to mainspace. Previous to change average run time 6.52ms, 27 conditions. RF OK condition stats seem meaningless varying from 8 to 500 I'll review in 10,000 edits time. Run 5.97 conditions 14, but I don't trust them. RF.
