Notes:	Per request at [[WP:RAF]], the removal of all categories in an article often implies vandalism. Fix redirect catcher and exclude large deletions targeted elsewhere. -DF Setting to warn. Not a single false-positive in the last 100 hits. --Conti Using message MediaWiki:Abusefilter-all-categories-removed - Cenarium add tag "categories removed" - Cen I added "stub}}" to the exceptions. - Ruslik I added the "{{uncat" - usually if a new user adds this, (s)he is familiar enough to know what (s)he's doing. I added lcase to old_wikitext. - Ruslik I changed old_wikitext to removed_lines. This is less resource consuming - Ruslik Added the {{db-g10}} template and its commonly used redirect {{db-attack}} to the list of safe strings - in case of severe attacks, the content of the page (including the categories) will be replaced by this template. Od Mishehu Added disambiguation templates to exceptions. - Ruslik Optimization. - Ruslik Added the wiktionary softredirect template as it tripped a falsepositive on this and two other filters.
