SRG again

@GeneralNotability: Sorry to bother you again; could you please also remove the indentation from the request rationale? It is confusing c:Commons:Convenient Discussions (not sure about DiscussionTools as I don't use it) and incorrectly indents further replies; this also got fixed in TwinkleGlobal a while ago, see m:User talk:Xiplus/TwinkleGlobal#SRG indentation. ~~~~

1234qwer1234qwer4, sure, can do. Pretty sure I copied that straight from TwinkleGlobal. GeneralNotability (talk) 00:46, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
I was sure TwinkleGlobal had : indents rather than * bullet points, but thanks! ~~~~

"Manual Revert"

Not sure if this is the right place to ask. I've noticed something for the perfectly correct close and archives for SPI using this helper have something unexpected. They are marked as "Manual Revert", which I *guess* is correct given that the page returns to the same text it had before, but this doesn't seem like the appropriate use of it.


For example RoySmith closing the most recent Sock Puppet for Israeli Rabbi ( https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3ASockpuppet_investigations%2FIsraeli_Rabbi&type=revision&diff=1046604838&oldid=1046569496 ) Naraht (talk) 15:58, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

I don't think the script has any control over this. The tags are applied by the MediaWiki software automatically. See Wikipedia:Tags -- RoySmith (talk) 16:19, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
RoySmith OK, If the script doesn't have any control. And thank you for your work. Now if we could just figure out how to get any user who puts *that* court case number into mainspace to be automatically counted as one of his sockpuppets, we could probably make your job easier. 1/2 :) Naraht (talk) 16:32, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
What we want is Wikipedia:Edit filter. -- RoySmith (talk) 17:01, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
