Welcome!
[edit]Hello, StPaddyC, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Ivanka Trump, have removed content without an explanation.

I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date.

Discretionary Sanctions
[edit]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 post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited (Ivanka Trump). 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.--Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 21:00, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
July 2018
[edit] Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Laura Loomer, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Please leave Edit summaries so other editors can keep track of what is going on with the articles. Thanks. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 23:51, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
- StPaddyC, I restored your edit. I think BeenAroundAWhile misunderstood your intent. Next time, please leave an edit summary. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 23:58, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
