Discretionary sanctions notice
Greetings! The details of the following message probably won't mean much to you as of right now, and that's okay. But as you seem to be interested in politics, I wanted to let you know that articles regarding American politics are subject to what we call discretionary sanctions (DS for short). It basically just means that attacking other editors is less tolerated, and if someone challenges one of your edits, you have to discuss it with them before re-instating it (see Misplaced Pages:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle for more info on that). It can be a tricky area, so if you have any questions about DS or anything else, please don't hesitate to ask me on my talk page. Best wishes and happy editing! —Compassionate727 21:02, 21 July 2018 (UTC)
This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Misplaced Pages. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.
Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for edits and pages regarding post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Misplaced Pages, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.
