Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, 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.

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.

Thank you very much. I see two issues from the WP:1AM link you provided me (thank you). There is a policy violation in that it still remains unclear as to what caused Trumps wound so the wording has to be shot at. To say shot is inaccurate, at this point in time. A neutral point of view, and accurate one, is shot at. There are NO reliable sources confirming what precisely caused the ear injury. The reference provided from the FBI Director is not even clear, and it doesn't help that he is a Trump appointee. As far as hijacked that's pretty clear as well as it is Trump boosters working hard to push the Trump was shot meme. The bias is made clear by Valjean's seemingly unnecessary follow up post about MeidasTouch. I may follow the dispute resolution path but too many follow the step back path and let Trump and followers get away with murder :) Thank's again. I appreciate your help and feel it's probably been silly busy since about 2016 :) Oghma6 (talk) 20:01, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just to let you know I have opened this under Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard. Oghma6 (talk) 20:15, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you continue to beat this dead horse you'll be topic banned from discussing Trump. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:17, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A threat? That seems quite rude of you. You presented me with several options so I followed one of them. Others may have discussed this but I didn't see it until recently. All that discussion still doesn't really address my concerns. Is ANYTHING I've posted incorrect in any way?

That being said I will "walk away" from this topic, reluctantly, and disappointed. Oghma6 (talk) 00:23, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see there is no choice now. I really wish you had made it clear when you first messaged me, and perhaps asked me to walk away in the first place. I feel stupid and uncomfortable now. Oghma6 (talk) 00:30, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
