Translated articles
[edit]Hi there, Palatinosunriser, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for getting off to a good start by creating six articles yesterday. As a new contributor, you cannot be expected to know that if you translate an article from another language version, it is important to explain this in an edit summary, preferably when you create the article or if necessary in a later edit summary. Otherwise you can run into serious copyright problems as translations need to be correctly attributed. Further information is available at Help:Translation. Please let me know if you need further assistance with this. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 08:43, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
I have just discovered that your article Grd of Trebinje Tablet seems to have been translated from the Bosnian Humačka ploča (or one of its equivalents). However this is currently linked to Humac tablet. It looks as if the two articles should therefore be merged.--Ipigott (talk) 11:16, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]
You have recently edited a page related to the Balkans or Eastern Europe, 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.
I noticed your article about the Blagaj inscription carried self-contradictory and unreliable sourcing. Please improve that given the topic area. --Joy (talk) 20:42, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
