Probably because you also removed one of the curly template brackets. Drmies (talk) 19:49, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Hi Amikrd. Can you explain your edit? Annh07 (talk) 23:53, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done – The edit for this report has been implemented, however no changes to the filter were made. @Annh07: They were updating the structure picture. I implemented their edit. – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 23:56, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I know that. I'm just wondering why there are 4 blue seats? What does it mean because the article has never shown such a structure. Annh07 (talk) 00:09, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that it is the changing of the party after an election or something, but I may not be sure. @Amikrd: could you explain your edit in further detail? – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 01:38, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like this is the answer: [1]. It's clearer now. Annh07 (talk) 05:05, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Description: The most recent edit changed "My Pafology" to "fuck." I changed it back.
Date and time: 02:44, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
Comments: Not done – The filter is working properly. It is indeed a plot point in the movie that the fictional novel, My Pafology, had its name changed to that certain four-letter word. CRBoyer 04:26, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
