Controversial topic area alert edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

@Newslinger: Thank you for the information. I look forward to reading it. I appreciate your welcoming me as an equal contributor into the improvement of the Brian Timpone Wikipedia article. As you are the longer-serving editor here, I will look to your guidance and leadership on how we can ensure that the content in the article obeys Wikipedia's policies and guidelines (as opposed to breaking those rules), in furtherance of the article meeting the purpose of Wikipedia. Feel free to leave me a note if you have any questions.--Lourde Mage (talk) 17:12, 21 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

May 2021 edit

  Hello, I'm Wallyfromdilbert. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Brian Timpone seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 23:18, 25 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
