Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Pyramid of Menkaure, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Telegraph. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Introduction to contentious topics

[edit]
Extended content

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 Yvan Part! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community.

I've noticed that you've expressed an interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Unfortunately, due to a history of conflict and disruptive editing it has been designated a contentious topic and is subject to some strict rules.

The rule that affects you most as a new or IP editor is the prohibition on making any edit related to the Arab–Israel conflict unless you are logged into an account and that account is at least 30 days old and has made at least 500 edits.

This prohibition is broadly construed, so it includes edits such as adding the reaction of a public figure concerning the conflict to their article or noting the position of a company or organization as it relates to the conflict.

The exception to this rule is that you may request a specific change to an article on the talk page of that article or at this page. Please ensure that your requested edit complies with our neutral point of view and reliable sourcing policies, and if the edit is about a living person our policies on biographies of living people as well.

Any edits you make contrary to these rules are likely to be reverted, and repeated violations can lead to you being blocked from editing.

Prior accounts?

[edit]

Hi Yvan Part, I hope you don't mind me asking, but have you used any other accounts on Wikipedia? I'm asking because I raised this issue in that messy ANI thread, and I found your answer a bit inconclusive. Thanks, Gitz (talk) (contribs) 09:05, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you can't believe that I am in fact a new account/editor, then there is nothing more I can do to convince you and therefore nothing more to talk about. Yvan Part (talk) 20:03, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are wrong. You could easily convince me if you were to give me a straightforward answer, e.g., "No, I have never had other accounts", or "Yes, I have other accounts but they are legitimate and I don't want to disclose their identity to you". Instead, you provide me with amphibologies such as this, "If you can't believe ... there is nothing more I can do to convince you", which don't answer the simple question I asked. Gitz (talk) (contribs) 20:33, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've never had other accounts. I doubt this will satisfy you but unfortunately for you that is the simple truth. Yvan Part (talk) 20:46, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, that's perfect: I'm fully satisfied. Thank you and best wishes Gitz (talk) (contribs) 20:56, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Arbitration case opened

[edit]

You were recently listed as a party to a request for arbitration. The Arbitration Committee has accepted that request for arbitration and an arbitration case has been opened at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Backlash to diversity and inclusion. Evidence that you wish the arbitrators to consider should be added to the evidence subpage, at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Backlash to diversity and inclusion/Evidence. Please add your evidence by October 10, 2024, which is when the evidence phase closes. You can also contribute to the case workshop subpage, Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Backlash to diversity and inclusion/Workshop. For a guide to the arbitration process, see Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Party Guide/Introduction. For the Arbitration Committee, SilverLocust 💬 12:12, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
