Discretionary alert notice

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 gender-related disputes or controversies or in people associated with them. 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.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. 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.

J. K. Rowling

edit

Please have a look at WP:LEAD, WP:BLP, WP:WIAFA and WP:FAOWN; J. K. Rowling has undergone a Featured article review in the last month, and the lead is based on community consensuss and should not be changed without gaining consensus on article talk. Further edits like this one could result in you being blocked from editing. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 13:12, 25 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

  You have recently made edits related to the Arab–Israeli conflict. This is a standard message to inform you that the Arab–Israeli conflict is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. Additionally, editors 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 per page for pages within this topic. Contentious topics are the successor to the former discretionary sanctions system, which you may be aware of. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics. For a summary of difference between the former and new system, see WP:CTVSDS.

Please note this includes talk pages unless you are making an explicit edit request. I've reverted an edit of yours because of that and WP:NOTFORUM. Doug Weller talk 15:21, 26 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
