I was trying to add in the sources that are very reliable and safe for me to use on my class assignment, but it wouldn't let me Publish because it's claiming that it is considered to be a Proxy website, even though I didn't obtain it there.

Question: @Sa96700: If the website has a cite-button, could you try that instead of copy-pasting the URL into the editor? A Proxy in this case means a kind of proxy that makes it so that you have access to the resources (you'd need to pay a subscription otherwise) Rusty4321 talk contribs 03:11, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question: @AgentPhoenix08: Can you tell us what sort of message you're seeing when you attempt to save? Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 22:50, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"As an anti-abuse measure, you are limited from performing this action too many times in a short space of time, and you have exceeded this limit. Please try again in a few minutes. If you are attempting to run a bot or semi-automated script, please read and understand our bot policy, then request approval. Users who run unauthorized bot scripts may lose their editing privileges." AgentPhoenix08 (talk) 23:14, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please see my statement regarding my /sandbox sub-page in the description of this report as well, unless I would need to open up another false positive report? AgentPhoenix08 (talk) 23:16, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@AgentPhoenix08: When you attempted to save your sandbox, did you get a message like MediaWiki:Abusefilter-disallowed telling you to come here, or did you find this page on your own? Because it doesn't look like you've had any edits disallowed by WP:Edit filters. The message you've pasted here should only happen if you (or someone else on your IP) attempts more than 8 edits in one minute. Which doesn't make much sense, unless your IP is being shared by lots of people. But who knows?
In any case, you're now WP:AUTOCONFIRMED so aren't subject to same limits anymore. If you get that rate-limit message again, it's likely a bug, and WP:VPT is the best place to report it. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 23:39, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Suffusion of Yellow: No, I found this page on my own, after having previously visited it to deal with reporting my revert of a random template blanking as a false positive.

Anyhow, thanks for your help! AgentPhoenix08 (talk) 23:43, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah. Ok then. Perhaps you're on carrier-grade NAT and were really unlucky. Or you have a really bad pointing device and every time you click "publish" you're submitting the edit form a dozen times. Or maybe it's a bug in MediaWiki core. Definitely report this at WP:VPT if it happens again. Suffusion of Yellow (talk) 23:48, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
