Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]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 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.
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.

- It seems that I was correct in my answers at WP:TEAHOUSE and this absolutely is a contentious topic. Please be very wise when editing in this area. Your personal view must not be evident and your behaviour must be exemplary. Thank you NightWolf1223 for leaving this alert. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 00:46, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
- This is not a presumption of guilt. This is simply an explanation of the rules when editing certain topic areas that are likely to cause tempers to flare up. Simply follow the above rules and you will be just fine. NightWolf1223 <Howl at me•My hunts> 00:46, 10 November 2024 (UTC)
