SUMMARY: I have been using book and quills to document tropical fish in a personal challenge to collect all 2,700 tropical fish in Bedrock. I first noted the bug 08/19/2025, where “Queen Angel Fish” and “Brinely” were censored when written in a book, despite both fish being uncensored when displayed as a fish in a bucket. Upon further testing and up to today, “Brinely” continues to be censored, and the abbreviation “Fl.” (for Floppers) has also become censored. All players invited to the Realm have their “Censor profanity” setting disabled. This issue occurs both in Book and Quills as well as signs.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE ISSUE:
Catch tropical fish in bucket (e.g., a Brown Brinely).
Open book and quill or sign and type the name of the fish.
EXPECTED RESULT: Fish name is recorded without being censored.
ACTUAL RESULT: Fish name is censored and can only be recorded through being misspelled as “Brinly.”
[NOTE: Screenshots attached below mainly demonstrate the “Brinely” censoring, with one image showing the censoring of “Fl.” used as an abbreviation for “Flopper.” Video attached demonstrates “Brinely” censoring in action with both sign and book and quill.]
Environment
Occurs on both Nintendo Switch and Windows 10 PC.

Signs have some other weird ones, such as anything with 8/11-8/18 written date. Had to write as “Aug 12”
Sometimes intermittent. One minute it will censor, then 3 mins later it will let me, then another 10 mins later it will censor again.
They need to add a toggle or something to turn this worthless thing off.
