Extended-confirmed restriction

Hi Svito3,

I have noticed that you have recently edited pages related to the Russo-Ukrainian War. Please note that, due to community consensus documented at WP:GS/RUSUKR, only extended-confirmed editors may make such edits.

When in doubt, please assume that a topic is covered by this restriction. We call this "broadly construed". If this still leaves you unsure about whether a topic is affected by the restriction, feel free to ask on my talk page.

This is not widely announced to newcomers, so I'm not blaming or condemning you for not knowing about this. I'm also not saying that your editing has been problematic in any other way. Your edit may well have been perfectly fine in all other regards, yet may have been removed for this reason.

Additionally, Wikipedia's Arbitration Committee has recognized "Eastern Europe or the Balkans" as a generally contentious topic area. Don't worry: The restriction to extended-confirmed editors is about the Russo-Ukrainian War, not the entirety of Eastern Europe and the Balkans. The box below contains standardized advice for everyone.

You have recently edited a page related to Eastern Europe or the Balkans, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an 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.

This may be confusing, so I'll attempt to summarize it:

Only extended-confirmed editors may edit pages related to the Russo-Ukrainian War. Details and exceptions can be found at WP:GS/RUSUKR.
All edits about Eastern Europe and the Balkans, by all users, need to be done with extra care.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if there are any questions.

Best regards,

My edit.

Why did you undo my edits? Was it inaccurate or incorrect grammar? 75.113.159.27 (talk) 04:37, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have issue with substance, not grammar.

Social democratic parties are typically considered to be on centre-left and not left-wing as they are perceived as more moderate than democratic socialist parties to their left.

Just branding every centre-left and left-wing party centre-left and left-wing simultaneously does nothing to describe their relative position on the spectrum.

You can check other political parties in pan-European social democratic group, Party of European Socialists, and they all are described as centre-left.

Many green parties are considered centre-left to left-wing, and democratic socialist parties to their left as simply left-wing. Svito3 (talk) 14:03, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Archives908. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks.

So me giving you a warning is comical but you doing the same isn't?

This isn't the first time you engage in edit war with me with terrible reasoning. Now you're just trolling. Svito3 (talk) 15:01, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You didn't even read what you're copying as it's a WP:Twinkle message, you're not User:Svito3. Svito3 (talk) 15:03, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ANI Notice

As you please. -- Svito3 (talk) 13:13, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why undo the good-faith edit on Poland?

Why undo the good edit? I am not a sockpuppet & this is my first time on Wikipedia and I've already gone over faulty refs on pages such as Angela Merkel. Refs unsupportive of statements may be removed and I followed through on that. A single supportive source remained after cleaning up, less than the 2 I managed to cough up for Poland being a parliamentary system. Do not engage in edit-warring!
