 * This edit summary is inappropriate as civility is required on Wikipedia. Please also be advised that you are warned against fuerther edit warring at People's Council of the Donetsk People's Republic. Since you added content which was then removed, please follow WP:BRD and discuss the preferred changes on the article's talk page and obtain a consensus for your edits before reinserting them to avoid edit warring, especially since this article falls under a contentious topic, specifically General sanctions/Russo-Ukrainian War. If outside opinions are needed to obtain a consensus there are dispute resolution options available such as WP:3O and WP:DRN. - Aoidh (talk) 21:02, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Struck part of my comment per the below, as editing that topic requires extended confirmed status, which I mistakenly thought you met the criteria of. - Aoidh (talk) 01:47, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Heh – Every word you wrote is correct though, . It just needs to be read with the information below in mind. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:48, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Then I will change it from a strikeout to a talk quote to keep in mind with the below context and let the matter rest for now. - Aoidh (talk) 01:56, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Extended-confirmed restriction
Hi ,

I have noticed that you have recently edited pages related to the Russo-Ukrainian War. Please note that, due to community consensus documented at WP:GS/RUSUKR, only extended-confirmed editors may make such edits.

When in doubt, please assume that a topic is covered by this restriction. We call this "broadly construed". If this still leaves you unsure about whether a topic is affected by the restriction, feel free to ask on my talk page.

This is not widely announced to newcomers, so I'm not blaming or condemning you for not knowing about this. I'm also not saying that your editing has been problematic in any other way. Your edit may well have been perfectly fine in all other regards, yet may have been removed for this reason.

Additionally, Wikipedia's Arbitration Committee has recognized "Eastern Europe or the Balkans" as a generally contentious topic area. Don't worry: The restriction to extended-confirmed editors is about the Russo-Ukrainian War, not the entirety of Eastern Europe and the Balkans. The box below contains standardized advice for everyone.

This may be confusing, so I'll attempt to summarize it:
 * Only extended-confirmed editors may edit pages related to the Russo-Ukrainian War. Details and exceptions can be found at WP:GS/RUSUKR.
 * All edits about Eastern Europe and the Balkans, by all users, need to be done with extra care.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if there are any questions.

Best regards, ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:41, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Please do not use misleading edit summaries when making changes to Wikipedia pages, as you did to The Communist (UK). This behavior is viewed as disruptive, and continuation may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you.  -  Sumanuil  '''. ''' (talk to me) 22:42, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Hello, UnixBased,
 * I came to say the same thing about this edit you made. Moving an article to Draft space is not vandalism and this edit does not say "Minor edit", it was a page move, not an edit affecting the content. Ab incomplete article is often best in Draft space where it is less likely to be tagged for speedy deletion. So, don't malign editors that are just trying to do their best and don't take these actions personally. Assume good faith and if you have questions, go to the editor's User talk page and ask.

Well, you're edit warring on The Communist (UK) with this and your other account, User:Splits 'n' Fusions. Drmies (talk) 17:42, 8 February 2024 (UTC)


 * That's kinda what I thought. &#45;- Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:45, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Great Ghu! I'll leave this open for another to review, but it's so obvious, even I can see it. &#45;- Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:48, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Yeah, as the person who was getting accused of vandalism and "article harassment" by them, the fact it was always one then the other from very single issue accounts stood out as highly suspect. Rambling Rambler (talk) 18:23, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
