Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, 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.

Edit warring notification

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Society for Evidence-Based Gender Medicine. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. In particular, you have restored an {{NPOV}} tag at the article, in the face of opposition from four editors at the article, to wit:

as well as opposition by editors in this discussion at the Talk page, which you raised.

Discussing at Talk is the right thing to do, but just because that is ongoing, does not give you the right to edit war at the article while it is going on. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. You should continue to discuss at the Talk page, seeking consensus, and not continually revert others at the article.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Mathglot (talk) 03:33, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

I'm not trying to initiate an edit war, but removing a tag without finding consensus is not very constructive. Colaheed777 (talk) 23:03, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

Er, my glasses must've fogged up again. Did you mean, "Placing a tag four times without finding any support for it is not very constructive"? Mathglot (talk) 01:49, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
