Disabling. Why is it necessary to disallow shouting? It may be impolite but it's not all in bad faith. Plus there's the potential for FPs such as all-caps abbreviations. - KoH

Enabled this filter with only an auto-flag action, to test that feature on production. All this does is indicate to editors that there could be an issue with this post, as is often the case with people who type their entire comments in all-caps. - Fabrice Florin

Changed the setting of this feedback filter to be included in the 'Feedback' filter group, which was recently implemented by Werdna (Andrew Garrett) to separate edit filter actions from feedback filter actions,so that feedback filters don't impact condition limits for edit filters.  - Fabrice Florin - May 17, 2012

Dropped the action check, as the group setting makes it unnecessary. -Rsterbin

Dropped the warning filter, which is not appropriate for feedback filters (until Werdna revises the tool). Only kept auto-flag for now, because it is unfair to reject someone's post just because they are shouting. Auto-flag should suffice to warn editors of possible abuse. -- Fabrice Florin, June 6, 2012.

Upped to 10 chars to try and reduce the number of hits. Short-term, experimental fix :). -- Oliver Keyes (WMF)

Upped to 12 chars to try and reduce the number of hits even more. Short-term, experimental fix :). -- ~~~~
The above action quickly disabled the filter. After my call with Oliver, I realized that upping the number of chars would INCREASE the number of hits even more, so I am now lowering the number of chars down to 4, to see if that solves the issue. Short-term, experimental fix :). -- ~~~~
