Discretionary sanctions alert

edit

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 post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. 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.

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.

Please review the community's consensus on reliable sources

edit

At WP:RSP are a list of sources that have been extensively discussed by the community.

The Washington Post is considered reliable.

The New Yorker is considered reliable.

Assuming off the bat that those sources are not reliable raises concerns about one's understanding of what constitutes a reliable source. Ian.thomson (talk) 10:59, 18 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

You really think the source that I removed is considered reliable? very well then. Fefil14 (talk) 11:41, 18 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
Check WP:RSP. The Wikipedia community has reached a consensus that WaPo and the New Yorker are reliable. Ian.thomson (talk) 11:54, 18 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
What are some sources you would consider reliable? Ian.thomson (talk) 11:56, 18 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
