- List_of_municipalities_in_Connecticut (filter log) (user filter log)
- Description
- The header cell labels in the cities table are misaligned. I am trying to add a "Percent Change" header cell since that is what's missing. This change is being automatically flagged as "Potentially unconstructive" and I cannot publish it.

Adding !(summary irlike "^(?:revert)")

- I added some more revert summaries above. Codename Noreste 🤔 Talk 06:33, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- Codename Noreste I didn't add them on purpose: undid would let some vandalism through, rollback and rv have no hits in the last 2000 filter hits. Nobody (talk) 07:39, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry about that, I've removed these terms; before you replied, I was thinking on allowing autoconfirmed users who do not use RedWarn or Ultraviolet to revert vandals whose usernames resemble poop vandalism. Codename Noreste 🤔 Talk 07:42, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
