Help:Permissions: Difference between revisions

An '''edit filter manager''' is able to create and edit abuse filters at [[Special:AbuseFilter]]. They can also view and edit the private filters. The abuse filter is a set of [[wikipedia:Regular expression|regular expression]] filters that perform defined actions based on a given pattern. This wiki uses a limited number of filters to try and stop particular behaviors which may case harm. Filters are marked private by edit filter managers at their discretion, and it tends to be based on vibes, or whether the ability to see the regex will result in easy bypassing.
