Dear Mark,

Can you post the test that is failing? Or all the tests if there are  
not many?

Hi Mikel,

# 

# check word filter works

# def test\_word\_filter

# blog = [Blog.net](http://Blog.net)(:title =\> “test\_title”,

# :raw\_content =\> “test raw content. fuck”)

# 

# assert !blog.valid?

# end
