Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics.

Hi

Please do not impute ulterior motives on my actions (that I am desperate). I will not go on playing with words such as what official is or not, it's the largest organization and is registered. If you're going to play with word semantics, go for it, you'd be alone. [Yaḥyā ‎ (talk) 15:01, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
:That's that last encounter I am having with you to clarify what would be ''obvious'' for most (and the reason why it is in your talkpage I am replying) by now.
:''The Muslim Council of Britain is a national representative Muslim umbrella body with over 500 affiliated national, regional and local organisations, mosques, charities and schools.'' http://www.mcb.org.uk/about-mcb/ ↗

:''The largest national representative of British Muslim associations, mosques and schools.'' https://www.facebook.com/muslimcouncil.uk/ ↗

:It's the ''de facto'' official organ of the British Muslim associations (by their own mandate). For anyone to claim otherwise (and defeat it's ''defacto purpose'') they have to rely on constructs and word semantics to define what is official and what is not (arbitrary parameters with strong selection bias). This raises more issues on editors intentions rather than plain simple observations on the role of the organization (and its mandate) itself.

:But don't bother my ''desperation'' (for merely pointing the arbitrary nature of such an exclusion) and ''shouting'' and covering of ''my own mistake'' (by your own words), I know where to stop. Yaḥyā ‎ (talk) 19:32, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi Fahrenheit666! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at :Irish Republican Army ↗ that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia — it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections ↗ or reverting obvious vandalism ↗. Any edit that changes the ''meaning'' of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit ↗ for more information. Thank you. 

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm FDW777. 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 :Irish Republican Army ↗ 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. 

{{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = 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 the Troubles ↗. 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.

In addition the Irish Republican Army ↗ article, and similar articles, are subject to a 1-revert-rule restriction ↗, meaning no more than one revert in a 24 hour period. FDW777 (talk) 06:33, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

:::::{{xt|"At 06:00, Hood was completing the second turn to port when Bismarck's fifth salvo hit.

30px|left|alt=Stop icon ↗ Your recent editing history at :Sophie Labelle ↗ shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war ↗; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page ↗ to work toward making a version that represents consensus ↗ among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done ↗. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard ↗ or seek dispute resolution ↗. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection ↗.

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing ↗'''—especially if you violate the three-revert rule ↗, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts ↗ on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—'''even if you do not violate the three-revert rule'''—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

follow editorial and behavioural best practice;

comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and

:I'm not the one that's edit-warring here. Every edit I made was backed by an RS. If the RS don't match the Wikipedia cabal's preferred version of reality, that isn't reality's fault. The post is called Fort Benning. Fahrenheit666 (talk) 04:14, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
::Edit warring is edit warring even if you believe you are correct. As you know, we have processes on Wikipedia to establish consensus ↗. voorts (talk/contributions ↗) 04:16, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
:::So editing the article to reflect reality, while providing RS to back that up, is edit warring. But reverting to an old, inaccurate name isn't? Do I have that right? Fahrenheit666 (talk) 04:19, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
::::Per Wikipedia:Edit warring ↗: "An '''edit war''' occurs when editors who disagree about the content of a page repeatedly override each other's contributions." You "disagree about the content" of Fort Moore ↗ and you have "repeatedly overrid[den] ... other[s'] contributions" to your preferred version of the article. The edit warring policy says nothing about whether you are right or wrong. You are also aware that there's no consensus for your edit because there is an ongoing discussion on the talk page about the fort's current official name that you have participated in. voorts (talk/contributions ↗) 04:23, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
:::::Did you block SWATJester for edit-warring? Because they undid moves at least three times. Fahrenheit666 (talk) 04:26, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
::::::We're talking about your conduct, not the conduct of other editors. And your conduct over the name of one page out of the billions of pages on the internet got you blocked from editing that page. There's no rush ↗ and you can wait for the RM discussion to close before changing instances of "Fort Moore" to "Fort Benning". Wikipedia operates on consensus ↗, not on who is correct or incorrect. voorts (talk/contributions ↗) 04:32, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
:::::::Right. I notice you didn't revert my edits to the Fort Benning command team. Is it OK if I ask why you didn't undo those changes? Fahrenheit666 (talk) 04:34, 9 March 2025 (UTC)
::::::::No worries. I think we both know why. Fahrenheit666 (talk) 06:11, 9 March 2025 (UTC)

The 13th Valley ↗ moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, The 13th Valley ↗, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable ↗, independent sources ↗. <small>(? ↗)</small> Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability ↗ is of central importance ↗ on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace ↗ (with a prefix of "<code>Draft:</code>" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline ↗ and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
