what does the UPC 11830, warning mean?

I thought maybe it just meant that the stock can't be shorted on downtick, but I see that YHOO was shown on a downtick, but no warning was noted there.

answering my own question, I did a search on other SI notes and found this definition:

No shares to borrow, and naked shorts have to be covered in 10 days

Sounds like a broker-enforced short squeeze to me.
