I posted the linked article and now I need to edit it… some of the formatting looks terrible. But I am blocked. The editor lets me edit, but no matter what I do I cannot save the edits. There is a pop-up about forbidden language.
It’s an old Lemmy bug to not tell authors what word is the problem. But very bizarre that it accepted the post in the first place if it had a problem with it. My edits are certainly not causing that.

I would copy and re-post. Leave a comment about why on the original, then delete the original post. The admins/mods will still be able to see that, so if they get curious about the re-post, they shouldn’t need to contact you in order to figure it out.
Alternately, re-post in another (related) community hosted elsewhere(another instance), then cross-post that to the original community.

thanks for the tip, but it seems to make no difference. I changed it from browser default to english. Simply tried to add the word “needed” to the end of the title, and it said “language not allowed”.

Its part of the web-page, next to/under the text-entry box. Normally, it should say "Select language /"
