Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief 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 must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and 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.

Hi. Perhaps you didn't read through all of the links in the templated message above, so please allow me to draw your attention to the relevant part. Accounts with fewer than 500 edits and less than 30 days old are not permitted to edit pages related to the Arab-Israeli conflict. You may make suggestions at the talk pages of relevant articles, provided that you do not do so disruptively. Please stop editing content of this nature until such time as you meet the minimum requirements. Thank you. Girth Summit _(blether) 12:52, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

will do and thanks F smithers (talk) 13:20, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Community Movement

Hello, F smithers. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Community Movement".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 16:00, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
