           Summary: Spam filter blocks further editing
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement

I made an edit using what I considered to be acceptable sources and I got a
warning that I needed to remove one of the sources before I could save my edit.
I didn't use preview because I wanted to see the sources (I know, add
{{reflist}} and maybe one day I'll figure that out and even remember to remove
it). But when I went back to remove the offending link, EVERYTHING I had typed
was gone. I had to do a couple of searches to find and redo every one of those
references. Ironically, the offending link contained information that several
reputable-looking sources had, and I didn't have to use that one, but this
particular offending link LOOKED respectable to me.
