Ohnoitsjamie Thoughts? Nobody (talk) 05:43, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]; Done – The edit for this report has been implemented, however no changes to the filter were made. Yes, a false positive, but it would be difficult to adjust it and still catch the LTA. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 12:14, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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.
