DS 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.

[edit]Please stop attacking other editors. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Acroterion (talk) 20:57, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
Please identify the language I used that is a personal attack. I read "stop attacking". The only thing I can see is that I said an editor was left wing, but that is the point of my criticism of the page along with many other people who commented on the page. "There is no rule that is objective and not open to interpretation on what constitutes a personal attack as opposed to constructive discussion". See stop attacking. The point of my comment was that the page violates wikipedia's policy of neutrality, but it is locked for editing. However, I have just been notified that I have made 10 edits, so this may solve the problem so that I can contribute and help fix the page. I will see if this allows me to make changes to a semi-protected page. I am a novice contributor and do not understand how the protection of pages works, who makes the decisions, etc.

By the way, I think I have made more than 10 edits to wikipedia before now, so I don't know who is counting the edit or how.
