Description This, that and the other (TTO) 2013-06-28 08:20:45 UTC 
When attempting an edit that is disallowed by AbuseFilter, you get a browser alert:

Error saving data to server: Unsuccessful request: The modification you tried to make was aborted by an extension hook.

Instead, VE should show a less cryptic message specific to AbuseFilter.

AbuseFilter, wgSpamRegex (core), TitleBlacklist, SpamBlacklist, ..
Comment 3 James Forrester 2013-06-30 18:58:41 UTC 
Given that AbuseFilter (but not others) depend on bug 32216, I'm moving that part to a new bug, bug 50472; the rest of this bug will be done today.
