Hello, I'm Lazylaces. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Zootopia—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Lazylaces (Talk to me) 05:22, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Jamie Muscato. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Philipnelson99 (talk) 03:42, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

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.

Edit warring

Your additions to the lede of Susan Sarandon have been repeatedly undone, by various editors for various reasons. When you get into an edit warring situation like this, it is best to step back and seek to form consensus on the talk page. Additionally, the material you are seeking to put in at the very least borders on edits that you are not allowed to do under the contentious topics limits described above. I highly recommend you step back from these edits, and that you review Wikipedia:Edit warring, as you are at risk of being blocked if you continue down that path. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 15:50, 14 December 2023 (UTC)

@Hobbes090414, do not continue to edit material on the Arab–Israeli conflict, until you have at least 500 edits or you will find yourself the subject of a noticeboard discussion very fast. This is your final warning. TarnishedPath^talk 22:57, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
