Happy editing! ElderOfZion (talk) 15:43, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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 an expanded level of powers and discretion 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 practices;
• 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.

You are editting in the Israel-Palestine conflict with the past few edits. Please stop until you reach 500 edits. User:Bluethricecreamman (Talk·Contribs) 02:14, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Aqurs1 (talk) 17:14, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have committed no vandalism. I meant what I did, and I shall be reverting your reversal. StopRejectingMyUsername (talk) 17:15, 26 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Donald Albury. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Shunga, but you didn't provide a reliable source. On Wikipedia, it's important that article content be verifiable. If you'd like to resubmit your change with a citation, your edit is archived in the page history. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Donald Albury 01:26, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Murder of Marcelo Arruda. When you were adding content to the page, you added duplicate arguments to a template which can cause issues with how the template is rendered. In the future, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find these errors as they will display in yellow at the top of the page. Thanks. Zackmann (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 23:17, 24 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Murder of Marcelo Arruda, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Veja. 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.)

A page you created has been nominated for deletion as an attack page, according to section G10 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

Do not create pages that attack, threaten, or disparage their subject or any other entity. Attack pages and files are not tolerated by Wikipedia, and users who create or add such material may be blocked from editing. Fram (talk) 14:03, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, StopRejectingMyUsername. Sorry you had to learn about the perils of translating articles this way. Basically, when you translate material from one Wikipedia to another, there's a few things you have to keep in mind:

1. Other language Wikipedias may have different standards than the English Wikipedia. Other wikipedias may have different policies on copyright, notability, and how to treat articles about living people. Just because something is OK on the French wiki, for example, doesn't mean it's OK here.
2. Other individual Wikipedia articles may not be policy-compliant, even on their local wikis. I don't know if you've seen the essay WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS? That applies to content, too - just because somebody added it, doesn't mean it's sourced, neutral, copyright violation free, or useful. You need to check it's okay before you add it.
3. You must always credit the original authors of the content. On the draft in question, you did not do that - nobody but you had any idea where you got the content, or who originally wrote it. You need to make a note in your edit summary, providing a link to the original Wikipedia article, whenever you introduce material from other Wikipedia articles (whether on enWiki or not). If you forget, you need to make a dummy edit and list the original article anyway.

Anyways, as you've learnt, you're responsible for all content you add to enWiki; the buck stops with you. If you you're unsure about stuff like notability of articles, you can always submit them through WP:AFC for a sanity check, or ask a relevant Wikiproject for a second pair of eyes. If you'll let me give you one other piece of advice, I really wouldn't translate articles on sensitive subjects (including most |contentious topic) or crimes involving living people until you have a bit more experience, or are intimately familiar with the area and the sources. Good luck! GreenLipstickLesbian💌🦋 21:43, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have translated several articles into Wikipedia recently. The thought of crediting the source did come to me, but how do I do it within the article? Is there a template for that? StopRejectingMyUsername (talk) 21:51, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, so within the article I'm not aware of any particular template. Where the attribution will go is in the edit summary. So, basically, in either of these boxes:

You're going to copy-paste the URL of the original French Wikipedia article (or German Wikipedia article, or Japanese Wikipedia article), and state clearly that you got the material from that source.

What you can also do, which is wonderful and I'll love you for it, but technically not required, is also add {{translated page}} to the talk page. If you'd like, you can also use the content translation tool to automate the "crediting the original authors" process; it adds both an edit summary and a talkpage template. GreenLipstickLesbian💌🦋 22:20, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I think the Talk Page template is great and is exactly what I had mind. The template has now been added to the talk pages to all the articles I made via translation recently, which are four in number. StopRejectingMyUsername (talk) 22:34, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @StopRejectingMyUsername, thank you for creating Erotic baby bottle by translating it to English. I hope you take my edits constructively. You will see I mostly edited the grammar as some translations don't read well in English.

Overall it is an interesting article, it just needed cleared up beefing up at bit.

Happy editing. LawlessTiger220 (talk) 01:31, 5 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely, I'm actually thankful that an article of my creation has aroused someone's interest, heh. :-) StopRejectingMyUsername (talk) 19:52, 5 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, please carefully read WP:ECR, which is a restriction that applies to all content related to the Arab-Israeli conflict. You may make any edits related to the Arab-Israeli conflict, except to make formal edit requests. That includes a prohibition on general talk page conversation. You may continue to discuss Debra Messing if you so wish, but not any aspect of her activity that is related to PIA. I am leaving you this reminder in my capacity as an uninvolved administrator.

The thread is StopRejectingMyUsername. Thank you. User:Bluethricecreamman (Talk·Contribs) 03:50, 24 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

apologies if i caused you any stress. please listen to warning this time, at least till 500 edits. User:Bluethricecreamman (Talk·Contribs) 17:00, 28 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello StopRejectingMyUsername: Enjoy the holiday season and winter solstice if it's occurring in your area of the world, and thanks for your work to maintain, improve and expand Wikipedia. Cheers, Volten001 ^☎ 03:32, 27 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have closed the enforcement request against you with a warning. Please read the advice from the administrators in that thread, and do not make any edits pertaining to, or mentioning, any of the topics on this list until your account meets the 30-day/500-edit threshold, other than edit requests as outlined at WP:ARBECR. I am not logging this warning as it is a standard rule for new accounts, but it is nevertheless a formal, and final, warning. – bradv 16:55, 28 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@StopRejectingMyUsername, I was waiting to give you a chance to respond before closing that thread, as I'm not sure you quite understand where the line is on how we define CTOPs. I don't want you to walk straight into a sanction because you're still confused, so please feel free to ask any questions you have here. If you think you get it now and you'd like a sanity check on that understanding, do go ahead and ask. -- asilvering (talk) 18:29, 28 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for giving me a chance before just sanctioning me. I believe things are now very clear in my head when it comes to arbitration restrictions. Thinking back, making that edit to the Brown University shooting page was a dumb idea even if it didn't violate ARBPIA. I have no appetite for similar edits for a a while now, you can be sure. Thank you again. StopRejectingMyUsername (talk) 21:13, 28 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
