August 2023[edit]
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into Foreign policy of the John F. Kennedy administration. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. Wham2001 (talk) 18:08, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

September 2023[edit]
Hello, I'm Shadowwarrior8. At least one or more of your edits in the page Foreign policy of Bashar al-Assad have been reverted. These were difficult to distinguish from Disprutive Edits since you have removed large amount of sourced content backed up by Reliable sources. To help other editors understand the reason for the changes, you can use an edit summary for your contributions.
Note that "Removing encyclopedic content without any reason" constitutes Vandalism and users who engage in vandalism "may be blocked indefinitely without warning". You can also take a look at the welcome page to understand editing in this encyclopedia. Thank you. Shadowwarrior8 (talk) 8:25, 13 September 2023 (UTC)

This is your third warning and shall shortly be reported to the admin noticeboard for repeatedly refusing to engage with multiple instances of warnings. Atleast one or more of your edits in the pages Foreign policy of Bashar al-Assad and Syria–United States relations have been reverted. These edits were difficult to distinguish from Disprutive Edits since you have removed large amount of sourced content backed up by Reliable sources. Stop removing reliably sourced content and refrain from Adhominem attacks. Wikipedia is not censored.

Introduction to contentious topics[edit]
You have recently edited a page related to the Balkans or Eastern Europe, 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.
