PFAS Revert

You reverted all PFAS to PFASs, even though the discussion had ended and you had no longer defended your position.

But you also reverted all my copy edits as well. You should have gone back and manually made the changes from PFAS to PFASs, and not done a complete reversion.

I'm also of the opinion that your defense of the use of PFASs instead of PFASs is wrong - the much more common usage is PFAS, and it makes no sense to pluralize an already plural word. By the definition we are using on the wiki page itself, the S stands for substances, and it makes no sense to say "substancess".

Please undo your reversion and keep my copy edits in place. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.11.5.2 (talk • contribs)

You blindly changed the acronym just everywhere, including in file names (the images were not shown anymore), in titles of publications, in quotes. This is considered vandalism!

I only didn't continue the discussion because you keep repeating yourself. Also your argument above is not valid. With the same argument, you could also claim that the acronyms of polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) should not have an s at the end. --Leyo 08:11, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to genetically modified organisms, commercially produced agricultural chemicals and the companies that produce them, broadly construed, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally you are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
