[edit]This has been discussed a million times on a million talk pages. Here, have a discretionary sanctions warning:
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to, any gender-related dispute or controversy and people associated with the same, all broadly construed, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.--ChiveFungi (talk) 13:05, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
Yes, I do have a question - in what way am I not adhering to "purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies"? How may I refute this claim?
Please also inform me if I am meant to discuss this here or on your talk page. 31.48.230.152 (talk) 00:44, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
- Hi. The discretionary sanctions warning is just to warn you that the topic you're editing is subject to discretionary sanctions. It doesn't imply that you've broken any rules yet.
- Having said that, the topic of "should we respect the subject's wishes and use their preferred pronouns" has been done to death. So bringing it up again could be considered a form of disruption.
- You're not going to change a policy applied to the whole of Wikipedia by bringing it up on an individual actor's talk page. If you want to change Wikipedia's policy on this (unlikely as it may be), you should read the current policy at MOS:GENDERID and then bring it up on the talk page for the manual of style. --ChiveFungi (talk) 01:29, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Talk:Asia Kate Dillon.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. EvergreenFir (talk) 00:54, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Please read MOS:GENDERID: "Give precedence to self-designation as reported in the most up-to-date reliable sources, even when it doesn't match what's most common in reliable sources." If you wish to change this guideline, please discuss on the guideline's talk page. --NeilN talk to me 01:17, 6 January 2018 (UTC)
