Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, 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.

Conversion therapy

edit

Since both are "therapy" related to transgender topic, isn't it OK to have a template:distinguish there? --by Huhu9001 (talk) at 03:38, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

This conversation is probably best had at the conversion therapy talk page. LunaHasArrived (talk) 07:56, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Turban

edit

RE: your comments about Turban, rereading the thread you are absolutely correct, that was your suggestion and I apologise unreservedly for implying otherwise. It was a good suggestion, and I could blame any number of reasons why I made the mistake today but honestly I just remembered it as part of the discussion and didn't check the entire conversation in sufficient detail when posting here today. I'll strike that part of my response. I've asked the admin for permission to reply there too and I'll post this apology there too if I can. Void if removed (talk) 21:40, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. We all make mistakes and I can see why one would slip through here (although obviously it Is the worst time for one to happen). I will say from my point of view that there is no need for the apology elsewhere.LunaHasArrived (talk) 21:45, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
