Description: The original author of the page cited a book on "british fiction" when referring to a homophobic incident at the pub in question. I removed two irrelevant citations and added relevant citations from legitimate news sources talking about the original incident and the protest aftermath. This is a constructive edit. I am assuming that the previous author did not intentionally imply that a reported news story was "fiction", but this does not look good either way. This edit needs to be allowed.

(automated comment) — MajavahBot (talk · contributions) 22:49, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]; Not done though a change to the filter may be needed. Ohnoitsjamie Think you can fix this false positive? Nobody (talk) 05:18, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]; Done and a change to the filter may be needed. (edit conflict) on the responding - I made the edit at Special:Diff/1223761523. Jamie, User:Suffusion of Yellow/effp-helper might be a useful script - it allows making edits from abuse filter hits and automatically merging them in --DannyS712 (talk) 05:21, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]; Fixed Thanks for the tip! I actually already had that script installed but had never figured out how to use it until now (the "make edit" button is subtle). OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 11:21, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
