[edit]Hello, I'm Mellk. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Dnipropetrovsk Oblast seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mellk (talk) 14:38, 10 September 2022 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]You have recently edited a page related to Eastern Europe or the Balkans, 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.
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.

OK, you need to stop with the names, like on Zhytomyr. That edit summary didn't make any sense. At Vinnytsia, the point is that the link goes to the article Southern Bug; if you think that name is wrong, start a rename/move request on that article's talk page. The time may well be ripe for it. But I cannot let you run around and change things (without, in many cases, an explanation, and certainly without discussion/consensus) for what I think are political reasons, rather than reasons grounded in Wikipedia naming policy.

- I noticed they put Ukrainian[1] as an official language in the infobox in Wales. I can't tell if they're being serious with these edits. Mellk (talk) 17:50, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

[edit]You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Zhytomyr. You need to stop, or I will block you, and possibly impose sanctions on your account because you are editing disruptively in a contentious topics area. Drmies (talk) 14:15, 3 July 2023 (UTC)

. User:Ymblanter (talk) 16:58, 3 July 2023 (UTC)- @Ymblanter: I'm not sure whether the block was a bit harsh. To me, it looks a bit like "biting the newcomers". They didn't make a single edit after receiving Drmies's warning, which was caused by a single re-revert. The conflict was about the lead of Zhytomyr, which gives the name of the city in six (sic) different languages, some of them with an additional romanization. One edit plus one revert, both in accordance with MOS:FIRST,
Be wary of cluttering the first sentence with a long parenthesis containing alternative spellings, pronunciations, etc., which can make the sentence difficult to actually read; this information should be placed elsewhere.
- is this really disruptive ? Rsk6400 (talk) 18:02, 3 July 2023 (UTC)- Actually, most of their edits were bad (I have seen the one in Kharkiv and blocked). I have not seen the warning. I am pretty sure this is one of the numerous socks of our blocked friends, but you ar right, it does not make sense to block after the warning since they have not edited. I will unblock now. Ymblanter (talk) 18:12, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
- Ymblanter, I don't see any socking, but what I do see, СолонийБурякУСпідниці, is a serious amount of logged-out editing. I will place a formal warning below; please heed it. Drmies (talk) 17:41, 4 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits while logged out. Please be mindful not to perform controversial edits while logged out, or your account risks being blocked from editing. Please consider reading up on Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts before editing further. Additionally, making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 17:42, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
- Here we go again. For example, this edit. First, what is stated might be correct or might be incorrect, but the BBC article does not mention specific cities, and the second source is a primary source. This would be a bad edit even if introduced by an experienced editor. However, you may not editing in the area as the community consensus is that only extended-confirmed accounts may edit contentious topics related to Russia and Ukraine. Moreover, when I yesterday reverted this edit in Kharkiv made by an IP, you returned today to restore the edit, clearly demonstrating that you were editing logged out. In summary, 60 hours block, I will be reverting all your edits, and the next block may be of indefinite duration.--Ymblanter (talk) 05:41, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
- Just for the record, I have just blocked for 72h 188.163.104.39 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) which was performing disruptive edits. (And the ip went on to personal attacks in Ukrainian). This is pretty clearly this user logged out. Ymblanter (talk) 15:44, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- I also started a SPI here. Mellk (talk) 21:44, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
