Notes:

Tests for new editors adding one of the five main classes of emoji symbols listed in [[emoji]] to an article.  Log only to start. -DF

The regex expression is ranges:

U+1F300..U+1F64F
U+1F680..U+1F6F3
U+2600..U+266C
U+2670..U+2704
U+2707..U+2712
U+2719..U+27BF

-DF

Removed ★ and ☆ which seem to be getting a number of legitimate uses associated with stylized music titles in Asian languages (e.g. Japanese) but don't seem to be used much for vandalism.  -DF

Removed ✓✔✕✖✗✘ which get used in some tables, added an exception for content explicitly wrapped as unicode / nihongo, which vandals generally don't do.  -DF

Removed ♭♮♯ which are on the toolbar and occasionally used for music articles.  -DF (updated per enWP [[w:Special:AbuseFilter/680]] 2015-04-17
