Page you were editing: Genetic studies on Moroccans (filter log) (user filter log)
Description: Somebody holding panarabist views obviously vandalized the article with claims that Moroccans were heavily affected by Arab migrations genetically when the sources they provided say the exact opposite, was trying to fix that.

Comments: Private – One or more of the filters triggered are private, and the request needs to be evaluated by an edit filter helper or manager. (automated comment) — MajavahBot (talk · contributions) 11:27, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]; Report fixed – Another user has fixed the page title in this report. Nobody (talk) 12:45, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]; Pinned – This thread has been pinned and will not be archived until this template has been removed. Would an EFM disable filter 1288? The target is currently not using those IP addresses in the filter itself, and this is only generating tons of false positives now.

Page you were editing: OMFG (musician) (filter log) (user filter log)
Description: This page contains incorrect tracklist information on the artist and is missing many years of history and context which would be useful for anyone wanting to learn about them.

I added that information (with citations), removed the incorrect information, and tidied up some parts of the page to be more professional and grammatically correct. I don't understand why it won't allow me to do this.
