When trying to save the page. I got this...

The page you wanted to save was blocked by the spam filter. This is probably caused by a link to an external site.

The following text is what triggered our spam filter: <big> <big> <big>

What is this and are you doing anything to fix it? --Taylor Karras talk contributions 07:28, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

See c:help:Help:Spam#What_is_the_spam_filter_message.3F. This combination or more of <big> is used by a couple crosswiki vandals to pervert the display of multiple articles with disparaging commentary. Is there a reason you need to use 3 or more of these tags at once? You can try this as an alternative. --CharitwoTalk 12:52, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
My user page on another Wikia wiki already uses 3 big tags. I was just curious as to why the message was appearing. --Taylor Karras talk contributions 03:59, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
