The censor technology sometimes causes problems in languages other than English. Swear words in those languages (unless spelled exactly the same as in English) are not censored. Also, censored words in English may have other meanings or be included in words in other languages.

Some people on Scratch have realised that there aren’t filters in other languages. For example, someone encountered a swear word in Chinese but it wasn’t blacklisted, as stated in a forum thread previously (I won’t show it here). Is this true, and if it is, will the blacklist be extended to other languages? Also, the Scratch Wiki states:

You are correct. You are allowed to say your real first name, but not your real last name (seemingly with the exception of @mres, but his name is stated in other places on the website than his profile [like the about page]. He's also the person credited with Scratch's creation, so…)

Is it okay to make a safe chat with a whitelist and blacklist? The blacklist contains mean, threatening things to say. I'm just curious.

I want to make a MAP, but a lyric in the song says ‘you can turn a phase into a weapon or a drug’. Is that appropriate? (It's the song Brave by Sara Bareilles) That's the worst thing it says

I had a very old shipping studio taken down because Scratch no longer allows romantic content. I have no problem with this as I have lost interest in romance. However, Scratch used to have no problem with romantic content, so it makes me wonder, what else is no longer allowed? Is there anything that changed which I should look out for?
