Introduction to contentious topics
You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief 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 an expanded level of powers and discretion 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 practices;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Additionally, you must be logged in, have 500 edits, and have an account age of 30 days, and you are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on any page within this topic.
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.
Additionally, please be aware that use of LLMs in talk page discussions is strongly discouraged. signed, Rosguill talk 00:12, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice of users' talk pages to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote—in order to influence User talk:Hohum. While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large. Thank you. ⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 16:17, 8 October 2025 (UTC)

Request reason:
I was banned from the English Wikipedia for writing on the October War discussion page, where I mentioned the Egyptian victory, while the article included the Israeli victory or an inconclusive result. please unblock me XBOX1235 (talk) 01:50, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
Decline reason:
I just declined an identical request at User talk:عمر 154. You are blocked for sockpuppetry, which appears to be correct. In your next unblock request, you should address this reason. PhilKnight (talk) 02:47, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:
I'm so sorry and I promise I didn't do that.and please unblock me.The wrong thing I did was that I created two similar accounts and supported them. XBOX1235 (talk) 02:53, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
Decline reason:
You need to completely abandon this account and never use it again, return to your other account and only use that. There, please explain your efforts to deceive. 331dot (talk) 07:54, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

- Note to reviewing admin -- both accounts resumed editing within 30 minutes of each other, and the above is a pretty clearcut admission of deceptively using multiple accounts to support each other in an edit request discussion on a contentious topic.⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 04:34, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
