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.

Reminder, per the above notice and WP:ARBECR, please confine your editing in the AI topic area, to straightforward edit requests of the form change X to Y, sourced as necessary. Selfstudier (talk) 17:03, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean? I can only suggest such bold changes if I completely understand why it is there. I do not, hence why I am asking about it in the talk page to understand why it is there in the first place. LivLovisa (talk) 17:08, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's not permitted, if you do not understand something, research it elsewhere first and then make an edit request as required. Selfstudier (talk) 18:04, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
