I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Nightmares26. Thank you for your work on 1351 in France. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

It does seem to have been a sufficiently interesting year to warrant a page. I don't think that the link to date (particularly not the links to months) are consistent with the usual style for these articles, as you can by scanning the other years of the 14th century. However, the particular policy that's relevant escapes me ...

@Klbrain: G'day I added the links to the dates because I was using the 16th century articles as a base in which the style used for many is that of having the date linked. Nightmares26 (talk) 15:57, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like WP:DATELINK generally discourages such links, however does note that in intrinsically chronological articles (1789, January, and 1940s), links to specific month-and-day, month-and year, or year articles are not discouraged. So, as this is a chronological list, it would be churlish of me to object! Klbrain (talk) 16:24, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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 an account age of 30 days, and 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.

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Nightmares26. Thank you for your work on Kasanga massacre. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Thanks for writing this clear article, as part of the series on the Kivu conflict. It is integrated into the series through the template. There is a lot of backgound/context, but this seems to be helpful for readers. There are sufficient sources for now, altohugh it will be interesting to see if there is sustained coverage. That seems likely given the number of people killed.
