== Did Paste Check get more sensitive lately? ==

I have [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?hidebots=1&hidecategorization=1&hideWikibase=1&hidelog=1&hidenewuserlog=1&namespace=0&tagfilter=editcheck-paste-shown%7Ceditcheck-references-shown%7Ceditcheck-tone&limit=100&days=7&tagfilter__editcheck-paste-shown_color=c2&tagfilter__editcheck-references-shown_color=c1&tagfilter__editcheck-tone_color=c5&title=Special%3ARecentChanges&urlversion=2 a Recent Changes filter] for showing edits flagged by the [[mw:Help:Edit_check|Edit Check]] system. Prior to last week, the feed would have around 75% blue (Reference Check) and 24% red (Tone Check) with only a couple of edits being flagged by Paste Check. Sunday last week however, there seems to be many more Paste Check-flagged edits (and, by extension, many more edits in that Recent Changes feed), and at least [[Special:Diff/1342375676|some of them seem to be false positives]] (additional ones: [[Special:Diff/1343674000|1]], [[Special:Diff/1343358147|2]], [[Special:Diff/1343674460|3]]). Does anyone have more information on this? [[User:OutsideNormality|OutsideNormality]] ([[User talk:OutsideNormality|talk]]) 05:22, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

:There are changes being made to the feature ([https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T382608#11658361 actually fairly interesting]), but for what it's worth I doubt #3 is a false positive. It's basically what you'd get if you machine translated [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Alexandru_cu_familia_sa.tif?page=1 the Romanian description] of the photo.

::Thanks for the information. I also hadn't thought to check if the "false positive" edits I cited were translated from another wiki (although 0 and 1 definitely are). [[User:OutsideNormality|OutsideNormality]] ([[User talk:OutsideNormality|talk]]) 04:55, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
