[edit]
Hello, please make sure sources you use are not WP:UGC, as was the case here. This is a blog post (hosted on Wordpress) by an author who is not an expert in Korean history. If she was an expert, maybe the blog post could be ok, but she isn't. grapesurgeon (seefooddiet) (talk) 06:54, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- thank you. i didn't notice it was hosted on wordpress. i just assumed the source was ok and didn't really do any other background checks. i'll try to find a better source.

- Could I ask why you edited a banned user's userpage? This is generally frowned upon. [1] grapesurgeon (seefooddiet) (talk) 02:07, 10 June 2025 (UTC)
- i wouldn't know if such actions are frowned upon, but thanks for letting me know - Plastixfy (talk) 02:12, 10 June 2025 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]
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.
