I don't know if this change is the problem but since, on fr wikipedia, we have problem to test filters.

@Supertoff this change is unlikely to have messed up the test page, because it hasn't been merged yet. Just to make sure, you're talking about using Special:AbuseFilter/test page, right?

It's a good idea but private global filters can't be watched except if you are "abuse filter" or "abuse filter-helper" on Meta (i am one of the helpers, just to manage the false positive on french wiki). If global filters can be disable locally, it means that you should know the code of the filter : you shoudn't disable a filter without knowing it. Is it something considered with this feature?
