J created the page "manifeste transbiologiste" then edited it to add a link to the original blog the text was published. So I was not at all changing many links in pages... I only tried to add one little tiny link to the source on the page I just created.

This project only accepts English language texts, so even if you'd been able to create the page, it would have been deleted. The filter correctly identified the attempt to add a non-authoritative link (a blog) multiple times. QuiteUnusual (discuss • contribs) 09:38, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

I was trying to upload information based on the growth cycle of the train system in Sydney Australia. However when i go to publish the wikibook I get pulled up for adding too many external links over other wikibooks. This does not make sense as I newly created this account just to upload this book. As I am new to wikibooks I had to look at edits from other wikibooks from the same transportation deployment casebook to understand how to format it. But I never added any links to them nor did i edit them. Can you arrange a solution?\

Initial adding of a book that contains a lot of http:// references, gets blocked. I've had to mangle them... not sure if this bot can be improved, but I can see it hindering the addition of some useful books that reference internet sources. Perhaps look at the distribution of the http:// links through the document - or provide better advice for steps to follow before adding a book with a lot of links.

Error messageEdit

Your edit has triggered an automated throttle designed to limit spammers. It appears you are adding external links to many different Wikibooks pages in rapid succession. For some kinds of links this may be okay, but it is often a sign of people abusing Wikibooks. If that is not your intent, we apologize.
If you're sure you still want to make this edit, go to the bottom of this page and click 'Save page' again, and it will be submitted as is. If you were not trying to add links to many pages, and you received this message in error, you may report this error.

I think it would be useful to have a print version for everyone and it is also described to work this way here: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Help:Print_versions

Could you pleas unblock this feature?

Thanks.

Fundamentals of Human Nutrition/Lactic acids (filter log)
Description
Added Wikipedia link for DOMS to #2 of list, and was stopped for allegedly making multiple spam entries/unconstructive edits. Also made a few changes to be consistent with DOMS Wikipedia language, as well as the removal of a contraction and some wording arrangement.

Should have read like this:


1. Lactate is formed from the breakdown of glucose.

During this process the cells make ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which provides energy for most of the chemical reactions in the body. Lactate formation does not use oxygen, so the process is often called anaerobic metabolism. Lactate-related ATP production is small but very fast. This makes it ideal for satisfying energy needs anytime exercise intensity exceeds 50% of maximum capacity.

2. Neither accumulated lactate nor lactic acid is present as a fluid in sore muscle tissue long after strenuous exercise.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_onset_muscle_soreness Delayed onset muscle soreness (removed disallowed link structure) or DOMS, the aching sensation felt in your muscles hours to days after unaccustomed or strenuous exercise, is caused by microtrauma to muscle fiber tissue, not by lactate. Most muscle cramps are caused by muscle nervous receptors that become over-excitable with muscle fatigue.

Many athletes use massage, hot baths, and relaxation techniques under the mistaken presumption that lactic acid or lactate accumulates and remains as a fluid in muscles, agitating them long after exercise has ceased, in an effort to accelerate its dispersal, thus relieving muscle soreness and cramping. While these techniques increase blood supply, which accelerates the healing and growth of damaged muscle tissue; they cannot address an absent fluid. Lactate is rapidly processed by the liver into pyruvate and then glycogen for energy during exercise and recovery and does not remain accumulated and trapped as a fluid within the muscles long after exercise has ceased.
