Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]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 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. TheSandDoctor Talk 14:39, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit] Hi Leirbagflow! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Taylor Lorenz that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please note that adding new subsection headers can change meaning, and therefore should not be marked as a minor edit. Innisfree987 (talk) 00:47, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- Got it - thank you for letting me know @Innisfree987!
- I presume I cannot go back and modify the edits so that they are no longer flagged as 'minor edit's? If that's not the case, I'm happy to go back and update them.
- Thanks again! Leirbagflow (talk) 03:56, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- That’s right, it’s just for going forward. Thanks for your attention to it! Innisfree987 (talk) 06:07, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Little Professor. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Taylor Lorenz seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Little Professor (talk) 08:05, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Little Professor which recent edit? and how, specifically, was it "less than neutral"?
- You've now accused me of writing misleading edit summaries, "mass introduction of unsourced material", and being "less than neutral" but have not showed any evidence that this is the case.
- All of my edits were made with citations and/or clear rationale. I await your evidence or an apology for false accusations. Leirbagflow (talk) 08:46, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
Question
[edit]Hey, I see you've made a lot of edits to Taylor Lorenz and seem quite passionate about the topic. Just to confirm, do you have any connection to her? (To be clear, not saying you've done anything wrong). Endwise (talk) 07:04, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Hey, nope no connection. Never met her, she doesn’t know I exist. Delectopierre (talk) 07:55, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- So far as I know, of course Delectopierre (talk) 07:55, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- All good :) Endwise (talk) 14:42, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for checking! Also, love your empathy box. I should probably add some to my talk page (esp that one). Delectopierre (talk) 20:18, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

References used but not defined
[edit]Hi Delectopierre, I noticed a few references are defined on Taylor Lorenz without there actually being any content there, which it looks like you added (":33", ":53", "FoxStealth2", and "Wemple202206103" are used but never defined). What sources were you referring to? Are they new? Already existing in the article? TheSandDoctor Talk 00:41, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the note. I've tried to figure out how to resolve this, but cannot. I don't believe they're sources that I added, but rather sources from a pp i moved. I could use a hand, or a pointer, in resolving this, though. Here's the diff where I believe it happened: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1240722085&oldid=1240721704&title=Taylor_Lorenz
- Are you able to help me out with this? If not, I can post to teahouse. Delectopierre (talk) 18:20, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
