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 recently 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 any 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. Galobtter (pingó mió) 15:08, 13 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

November 2018

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Captain Eek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!} 22:55, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

2019 American Declaration of a State of Emergency

I think you need to fix the WP:NPOV issue implicit in "in order to bypass the Democratic Congress". If the Democrats have a majority in the House of Representatives, and the Republicans in the Senate, how can Congress be considered as one party's or the other's?

Trump

Hi, articles that are not about Trump should not unduly focus on Trump, even though Trump will always dominate the news cycle. See User:GreenMeansGo/The Trump Horizon. Cheers, wumbolo ^^^ 00:18, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

American evangelicalism and interracial marriage moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, American evangelicalism and interracial marriage, does not have enough content, structure or citations as written to remain published, and insufficient progress has been made since the 'in progress' notice was added some hours ago. I've therefore moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Adding to to the lead section of William Barr

Welcome to Wikipedia. Unfortunately, content you added to a Wikipedia article appears to be a minority or fringe viewpoint, and appears to have given undue weight to this minority viewpoint, and has been reverted. To maintain a neutral point of view, an idea that is not broadly supported by scholarship in its field must not be given undue weight in an article about a mainstream idea. Feel free to use the article's talk page to discuss this, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. See the talk page regarding already reached consensus regarding keeping the lead at its current state. Kozak4512 (talk) 02:41, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As mentioned on the above user's talk page, the consensus required provision isn't used that much anymore, but because it was on Mike Pence, from which I copied the editnotice, it does apply to this article, even if by accident. And because you have failed to try to gain the consensus for your changes on the article talk page with your revert, you were in breach of it. So, please do so, now and in the future. I won't impose any sanctions at this time, but I expect you both to tread lightly and use the talk page often. El_C 02:47, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Trump-Ukraine controversy

Hello. Your contribution to this article is appreciated. However, per an agreement on the talk page that an over bloated lead does not work very well, I moved your contribution out of the lead and into its own section entitled Misplaced transcripts. Here is a link that will take you right to it [1] Also, this was already briefly mentioned in the lead, so more detail is not necessary. Thanks for your cooperation. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 09:49, 28 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reversion

Uh – why? --Brogo13 (talk) 17:41, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unintentional mistake. I was making an edit at the exact same time and it got erased. Feel free to change it back. ZiplineWhy (talk) 21:50, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It didn't "got erased", you got over-confident (as have I, tackling that much c/e at one go). Anyway, it's too late now to avoid a complete 'nother c/e. I'll get over it; meanwhile please remember that right beside Publish, Show Preview, and Show Changes is (our bestest buddy) Cancel. --Brogo13 (talk) 23:30, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unintentional revert?

Hello. When you restored the "consensus version" relating to the Mueller report on Donald Trump here [2] it appears that you inadvertently reverted this edit of mine: [3]. If you didn't intend this, could you reinstate that edit of mine? Thanks. SPECIFICO talk 15:09, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It was unintentional. I'll revert it. ZiplineWhy (talk) 18:41, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus

There is no consensus for their removal. As they have been in the article a long time consensus will be needed. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 02:38, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
