If you think something is wrong about the text, please raise a discussion about it on the talk page. You can change text cited to a source already to say something different from what the source says. You'll need to provide evidence that the source is wrong, e.g. better, newer sources that disprove the old source. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ &gt;ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ&lt;  22:25, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
 * What does the source say? Does anybody know? Rupert the Frog (talk) 12:15, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Warning concerning your edit at Talk:Race (human classification)
Ok, I see that your statement meant to read "to protect people such as ..." from Marxist activists. But that's not what it actually said. In any case our talk pages are not WP:FORUMS and that sentence wasn't relevant to improving the article. Please stick to discussing the article. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 10:29, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

This applies on talk pages also

Another area where you are editing that has discretionary sanctions

This means admins can impose sanctions on editors? Isn't this the case with every website? How is all of this useful? Rupert the Frog (talk) 13:14, 11 October 2017 (UTC)


 * On other websites it's probably more random. Here we have a system for selection of Administrators and organised methods for creating specific sanctions for problem areas. These particular sanctions were created by the WP:Arbitration Committee which is popularly elected and deals with conduct (not content) disputes that the community itself hasn't been able to resolve. This works pretty well in keeping down WP:Edit warring and other conduct problems.  Doug Weller  talk 14:13, 11 October 2017 (UTC)


 * So all of this is to tell me Wikipedia has better sanctions? Rupert the Frog (talk) 14:18, 11 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I thought you really wanted to know about discretionary sanctions. I seem to have wasted my time. Doug Weller  talk 14:41, 11 October 2017 (UTC)


 * I'm afraid you might have. Not to worry. Rupert the Frog (talk) 14:51, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
