Discretionary Sanctions Notification - American Politics 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. 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.power~enwiki (π, ν) 04:32, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Police use of deadly force in the United States edit
Hi, I removed some of your edit here. The source you added on the arrests and convictions of police for murder/manslaughter is very useful, so thank you for that. I removed the race and homicide portion because it's already covered in the section on Racial Patterns with more in-depth analysis on police-civilian interactions so it's redundant and somewhat misleading. It's also not relevant to focus on one specific crime rate for one race for civilians when the article is about police use of force. I also removed your analysis about police convictions by race of victim as that (i.e. justice for Black Americans) was not an explicit conclusion of the brief and reads like original research. Thanks.Citing (talk) 15:23, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
- All of the information is included in the source. There's no Wiki policy prohibiting basic calculations. Furthermore, your edits are against Wikipedia's vandalism and censorship policies regarding credibly sourced material. Please try to keep in mind that this is Wikipedia, not your personal website.--Jameswilson321 (talk) 05:49, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
- I'd ask you to assume good faith in my edits. There's certainly policy against original research/synthesis, and the material I removed was either because of that, or it was redundant or oddly focused on crime statistics for one race.Citing (talk) 01:57, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
January 2023 edit
Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contribution(s). I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, while user talk pages permit a small degree of generalisation, other talk pages such as Talk:Conspiracy theory are strictly for discussing improvements to their associated main pages, and many of them have special instructions on the top. They are not a general discussion forum about the article's topic or any other topic. If you have questions or ideas and are not sure where to post them, consider asking at the Teahouse. Thanks.
