Re: Assassination of Charlie Kirk ↗



Hello, @ThirdEye96! Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. I wanted to reach out to you to explain why I twice reverted your addition of reciprocal killings to the Assassination of Charlie Kirk ↗ article. In short, I do not see this event as being notable ↗ enough to be included on Wikipedia. You can see the notability guidelines yourself at WP:N ↗. More specifically though, I don't see either of the attached sources being enough to qualify this event for inclusion. While CNN is considered a reliable source ↗ (see WP:CNN ↗), the article itself does not mention Charlie Kirk or his assassination once and does not allege that the killing was tied Kirk's assassination. This would mean that inclusion on this page would be an example of original research ↗ and synthesis ↗, both of which are discouraged on Wikipedia. I would not consider NJ101.5 to be a reliable source because it seems to have more in common with a tabloid ↗ or sensationalist ↗ news source, and in particular because of the poor grammar and subject material. In short, if you do want to readd this event, I suggest you find more sources (preferably >3) that directly tie this event to Kirk's assassination. Given that the driver's identity hasn't even been confirmed by the police though, I feel you will have significant trouble doing so. Instead, it may be possible for you to try to turn it into a standalone article through the normal Articles for Creation ↗ process. Thanks, and happy editing! guninvalid (talk ↗) 06:12, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics


{{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = You have recently edited a page related to '''articles about living or recently deceased people ↗, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles''', a topic designated as '''''contentious ↗'''''. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and <em>does <strong>not</strong> imply that there are any issues with your editing</em>.

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 an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit <strong>carefully and constructively</strong>, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

<p>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 {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template. </p>}}<!-- Derived from Template:Contentious topics/alert/first --> Isabelle Belato <small><sup>🏳‍🌈</sup></small> 10:49, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

Repeatedly undoing the changes made by other users in a back-and-forth fashion like this is disallowed, even if you feel what you're doing is justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages ↗ in order to try to reach a consensus ↗ with the other editors involved. If you are unable to come to an agreement&#32;at {{TALKPAGENAME:Denny Hamlin}} ↗, please use one of the dispute resolution options ↗ that are available in order to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of repeatedly reverting other editors' changes can help you avoid getting drawn into edit wars.

:Sorry, I had read the criminal trial section of the article where it says "Prosecutors Lara Pomerantz and Audrey Strauss chose to focus on four out of more than 100 victims.", so I had decided to add "4 convicted, 100+ alleged" as the amount of Maxwell's victims. However, looking at the BBC article used as the source for that section, it reads "...it's a major victory for the more than 100 accusers who fought for more than a decade to have Epstein and his co-conspirators face criminal charges.", which is not only referring to Maxwell.

Recent edit reversion


In this edit here ↗, I reverted some information that appears to be a violation of our copyright policy ↗.

I provided a brief summary of the problem in the edit summary, which should be visible just below my name. You can also click on the "view history" tab in the article to see the recent history of the article. This should be an edit with my name, and a parenthetical comment explaining why your edit was reverted. If that information is not sufficient to explain the situation, please ask.

I do occasionally make mistakes. We get hundreds of reports of potential copyright violations every week, and sometimes there are false positives, for a variety of reasons. (Perhaps the material was moved from another Wikipedia article, or the material was properly licensed but the license information was not obvious, or the material is in the public domain but I didn't realize it was public domain, and there can be other situations generating a report to our Copy Patrol tool that turn out not to be actual copyright violations.)
