+### Callbacks
+
+* filter.register_on_violation(func(name, message, violations))
+	* Violations is the value of the player's violation counter - which is
+	  incremented on a violation, and halved every 10 minutes.
+	* Return true if you've handled the violation. No more callbacks will be
+	  executation, and the default behaviour (warning/mute/kick) on violation
+	  will be skipped.
+
+### Methods
+
+* filter.import_file(path)
+	* Input bad words from a file (`path`) where each line is a new word.
+* filter.check_message(name, message)
+	* Checks message for violation. Returns true if okay, false if bad.
+	  If it returns false, you should cancel the sending of the message and
+	  call filter.on_violation()
+* filter.on_violation(name, message)
+	* Increments violation count, runs callbacks, and punishes the players.
+* filter.mute(name, duration)
+* filter.show_warning_formspec(name)
