I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you need help, please see our help pages, and if you can't find what you are looking for there, please feel free to ask me on my talk page or place {{Help me}} on this page and someone will drop by to help. Again, welcome!

P.S. Usernames that are actual real names (or even look like real names) are discouraged. Such usernames significantly increase the potential for harassment. I recommend before you get deep into editing that you consider changing your username to something else. The process is explained here: Wikipedia:Changing username.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. And once again, welcome! Kingturtle = (talk) 18:50, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, 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.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

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.

Please note that topics related to the Arab-Israeli conflict, broadly construed, are subject to the extended-confirmed restrictions. This includes very severe limits on edits allowed to people without 500 edits. The history of Zionism and Palestinian nationalism are included. Please read the restrictions and stick to them until you reach the magic 500. Zero^talk 00:35, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Microedits

Hi. Welcome to the project. Please utilize the preview button so you don't have to follow up every edit with five others adjusting things in the first. Try grouping related edits together into a unit. Also, see WP:OVERLINK, and don't wikilink common terms or dates. Thanks. Opencooper (talk) 07:22, 4 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for promotion or advertising, as you did at Euro 2024. Nearly but not perfect (talk) 14:30, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's the official game of UEFA... Eitan Drutman (talk) 14:35, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So it is not advertising... Eitan Drutman (talk) 13:00, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think. Eitan Drutman (talk) 13:00, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would appreciate it if you will write and explain why it's considered as advertising. Eitan Drutman (talk) 13:02, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Come on man. You threaten to ban me and don't give me an appropriate explanation? Eitan Drutman (talk) 14:09, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Look, it sounded promotional to me, and it's not even necessary to the Euro 2024 page. The Euro 2020 page doesn't even have it. Stop adding it back. Nearly but not perfect (talk) 19:00, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it could and should be discussed. But do you at least agree that it isn't advertising? Eitan Drutman (talk) 19:18, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It still does not belong on the Euro 2024 page. Nearly but not perfect (talk) 19:45, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's like the symbols and marketing, so, in my opinion, it does belong. As I said before, it could and should be discussed. Eitan Drutman (talk) 19:49, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

EURO 2024 goalscorers

Please, put the goalscorers in the order of alphabet of their nation. Romania is not above Slovenia, Spain and Switzerland. Dave Ondzuls (talk) 15:01, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I didn't know it was by the order of alphabet of their nation. I will. Eitan Drutman (talk) 15:02, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

By alphabetical order in general. Eitan Drutman (talk) 15:03, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. I'll keep that in mind for the next time. Eitan Drutman (talk) 15:03, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
