Draft:Venkata Subbaiah Karumanchi (filter log) (user filter log)
Description
I tried to create Draft:Venkata Subbaiah Karumanchi at 19:52 UTC on 28 September 2026. The edit was disallowed by a filter described as "Fixed position vandalism"; filters 147 and 148 also logged a possible autobiography. This is a good-faith sourced biographical draft about my great-grandfather, not vandalism. I have a family conflict of interest and will disclose it on the draft talk page if the draft is created. Could an experienced editor review the false positive and, if appropriate, make the edit on my behalf? The draft text is available for review.

Private – One or more of the filters triggered are private, and the request needs to be evaluated by an edit filter helper or manager. – SuperJames888 (Talk to me) 19:58, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
If an editor with access to the private filter has a moment, I'd appreciate a prompt review of this false positive. The full draft text is in my sandbox if that helps. Rkaruman (talk) 21:00, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Done and a change to the filter may be needed. Was a false positive. Filter change would make sense I think. – Nobody (talk) 05:04, 29 September 2026 (UTC)reply

Wikipedia talk:Deletion policy (filter log) (user filter log)
Description
I was attempting to make a good-faith request concerning a Wikipedia article about a living person. I was trying to follow Wikipedia's Articles for Deletion process and submit the article for community review because I have concerns about the accuracy, sourcing, and BLP compliance of some of the content. The edit was blocked by an automated filter. I believe this may have been a false positive because I was attempting to follow Wikipedia's established deletion and BLP processes in good faith.

Not done – The filter is working properly. The "deletion policy" talk page is not for nominating articles for deletion. Furthermore, deletion isn't the solution for WP:BLP issues; the BLP noticeboard is the correct venue for those concerns. Please make sure you understand those policies before raising an issue there.

Kidney disease (filter log) (user filter log)
Description
I added a section on kidney disparities, covering statistics, suspected causes, and current progress toward reducing them. I’m uncertain how this section of the page fits into the overall page and whether it's necessary, but I do believe it brings a new, human-centered dimension to the page that was not there before. I worked to set the page up in the future by making a few edits to be more up to date, and reorganized the causes section to be more segmented rather than a large list. I hope future editors will continue to add to weak sections with outdated information on prognosis, treatment, and diagnosis.
