Contentious topics alert
You have recently been editing [CT code] which has been designated a contentious topic[LINK]. 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 [LINK] or you may learn more about this contentious topic [LINK]. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the Ct/aware template.
