Notes:	A long string of letters and/or numbers may be indicative of vandalism. - KoH FP: Adding links. - KoH Made the string length allowed before tagging longer, as it's catching URLs.. -Versageek Hope this check for http is better... - KoH Also check https. - KoH Virtually everything triggering this hits another filter, and this uses a lot of conditions, disabled, consider merging in to 135. -Prodego -ok -P Turn to disallow. -Sole Soul I can think of legitimate uses for 50+ character strings. From experience, in a warn-tag filter, a warning already blocks out over 75% of the vandalism. - KoH False positives are associated with the word "word". -Sole Soul Optimize for conditions. RF 20150724 Adding the word "image" per false positive. Od Mishehu 20171227 Use "\p{L}\p{N}" to catch unicode character repetition; make exceptions slightly more focused. -G 2019-02-25 Disallow per [[Special:PermaLink/885595932#Setting_Filter_231_to_disallow?]] -G 2019-03-01 Exempt CJK chars due to lack of spacing in those languages. - KoH 2022-07-16 Simplify regex. --Suffusion of Yellow 23:14 25 Nov 2022 So that we don't trigger on items in "math" tags, which may reasonable be long numerical strings without spaces ([[Special:AbuseLog/35551832]]) -- RTH (23:07, 2023 July 20) Also check added_links; most of the time this covered by the "https?://" check but not if the link is from a template, e.g. [[Special:AbuseLog/36540662]]. --Suffusion of Yellow 03:06 12 Dec 2023
