User talk:Scientelensia

November 2022

Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Kyle Walker, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:25, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

Discretionary alert for J. K. Rowling

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in gender-related disputes or controversies or in people associated with them. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

See also WP:WIAFA, WP:FAOWN and Wikipedia:Featured article review/J. K. Rowling/archive1; please gain consensus before adding content previously discussed. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:22, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Please engage Talk:J. K. Rowling and do not continue inserting text without gaining consensus. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 16:42, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Fair enough – but I also support demonstrating how Rowling is supported by some as well as condemned, and I feel that the article rather unhelpful lay only concentrates on negative reactions. However, she has been nominated for the Guardian Person of the Year (twice) among other things, and I believe that more than one view can share a place on an article to avoid misleading people.

Sorry yes! I am quite new to the platform. Regarding new edits, should I ask people on the talk page before I add information? Thank you :D Scientelensia (talk) 23:26, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

I agree with you but after suggesting this on said page it was determined this was not needed. However, I think this information is useful and interesting, and as there are so many actors who have commented, I thought it should be its own page. Scientelensia (talk) 22:10, 25 December 2022 (UTC)

Scientelensia you just don't seem to be understanding Wikipedia yet. The best thing you can do for yourself is to slow down, and stop re-instating edits once you have been reverted. This is occurring across multiple articles now. You are also mis-stating (above) the issue about the actors who have spoken out re JKR's stance on the proposed changes to Scottish gender laws. The content is in the article, and given its due weight, in a footnote, where each actor is mentioned. Please understand that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a Hollywood tabloid, and content here must not only be well sourced for example, Washingtontimes is not a high-quality source), it should also be written with due weight. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:25, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

Oh yes, I just realised I confused the Washington Times with the New York Times, thanks for pointing it out. I can assure you I will slow down. Recently I've been working on a village I know a lot about, maybe that sort of this would be better suited for me. Scientelensia (talk) 20:17, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

Ah yes, sorry. Scientelensia (talk) 18:55, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

I'll do that now, sorry and thank you for your civility (which is somewhat rare on this platform)

D Scientelensia (talk) 19:04, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to LGBT in Islam. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Adakiko (talk) 10:01, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Editor assistance/Requests/Archive 132

Your edit to Wikipedia:Editor assistance/Requests/Archive 132 was reverted by another editor. At the top of that page it says: "This page is an archive. Do not edit the contents of this page". - David Biddulph (talk) 13:50, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

Sorry, I had not noticed that before and have moved the edit to the relevant position. Scientelensia (talk) 13:51, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

Notice that you are now subject to an arbitration enforcement sanction

The following sanction now applies to you:

Topic ban from gender-related disputes and from people associated with gender-related disputes for twelve months.

You have been sanctioned for the reasons provided in response to this arbitration enforcement request.

This sanction is imposed in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator under the authority of the Arbitration Committee's decision at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Gender and sexuality#Final decision and, if applicable, the procedure described at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions. This sanction has been recorded in the log of sanctions. If the sanction includes a ban, please read the banning policy to ensure you understand what this means. If you do not comply with this sanction, you may be blocked for an extended period, by way of enforcement of this sanction—and you may also be made subject to further sanctions.

You may appeal this sanction using the process described here. I recommend that you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template if you wish to submit an appeal to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard. You may also appeal directly to me (on my talk page), before or instead of appealing to the noticeboard. Even if you appeal this sanction, you remain bound by it until you are notified by an uninvolved administrator that the appeal has been successful. You are also free to contact me on my talk page if anything of the above is unclear to you. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 04:45, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
