Wildcards and web rating overrides

Is it possible to add wildcards when creating a web rating override?

 

Im trying to make new categories for easier administration of some requirements but I cant add a wildcard when setting a domain for a rating override, for example if I were to try to block amazon.com without a wildcard other sites like amazon.co.uk or amazon.co.jp will still load.

 

Is it only possible to add wildcards on the url filter section? If its only possible here then can I make categories on the url filter so I can groups different filters like you can do on the web rating override?

 

Thanks

It seems not feasible.

When setting a domain for a rating override, is it feasible to use wildcards to enhance the administration of requirements? For instance, blocking "amazon.com" without a wildcard might allow sites like "amazon.co.uk", "amazon.co.jp", or gold whatsapp apk to still load.
