Page you were editing: A History of the British Monarchy/Saxon Rulers/Athelstan (filter log)
Description: I was attempting to report the page as a copyright violation (I help clean copyright issues at enwiki and stumbled upon this when investigating a different issue. It is a vio of a page on englishmonarchs.co.uk as confirmed by archives at IA dated before the creation of this page.) I triggered the filter preventing addition of extlinks.
Date and time: 03:02, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
Comments: I have triggered the same filter again on A History of the British Monarchy/Saxon Rulers/Ethelbald, again a copyvio from the corresponding englishmonarchs page. I have stopped attempting to mark them, but the same is true of A History of the British Monarchy/Saxon Rulers/Egbert though that page has been slightly copyedited since and had a few reworded sentences to begin with.
