- "As an anti-abuse measure, you are limited from performing this action too many times in a short space of time, and you have exceeded this limit. Please try again in a few minutes. If you are attempting to run a bot or semi-automated script, please read and understand our bot policy, then request approval.

- Please see my statement regarding my /sandbox sub-page in the description of this report as well, unless I would need to open up another false positive report? AgentPhoenix08 (talk) 23:16, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
- @AgentPhoenix08: When you attempted to save your sandbox, did you get a message like MediaWiki:Abusefilter-disallowed telling you to come here, or did you find this page on your own? Because it doesn't look like you've had any edits disallowed by WP:Edit filters. The message you've pasted here should only happen if you (or someone else on your IP) attempts more than 8 edits in one minute. Which doesn't make much sense, unless your IP is being shared by lots of people. But who knows? In any case, you're now WP:AUTOCONFIRMED so aren't subject to same limits anymore. If you get that rate-limit message again, it's likely a bug, and WP:VPT is the best place to report it. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 23:39, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Suffusion of Yellow: No, I found this page on my own, after having previously visited it to deal with reporting my revert of a random template blanking as a false positive.
Anyhow, thanks for your help! AgentPhoenix08 (talk) 23:43, 10 May 2024 (UTC)- Ah. Ok then. Perhaps you're on carrier-grade NAT and were really unlucky. Or you have a really bad pointing device and every time you click "publish" you're submitting the edit form a dozen times. Or maybe it's a bug in MediaWiki core. Definitely report this at WP:VPT if it happens again. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 23:48, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

There's an error that popped up saying that I wasn't allowed to edit my own user page because I am logged out. Why? I forced myself to take a Wikibreak (using the Wikibreak Enforcer) until June 15, 2024. Thank you.
