Thoughts/Changes

Thanks @Dreamy Jazz for getting this started. Some thoughts on reading this:

  • I believe that people have to use our alerts so or any message that conveys the contentious topics restriction is active. is not correct.
  • I think it might make sense (perhaps in a collapsed box if we're worried about length) to include the default standard restrictions. As noted certain areas can have more but since some are universal why not list?
  • I did some CE around expiry.
  • Sitewide blocks having CT protection for 1 year is status quo and so probably doesn't need to be in a list of changes?
  • I have added some content to the Appeals section.
    • I don't know if it makes sense to have the 3 standards listed out verbatim but it felt weird not including them so I did. I have no attachment to this format though.

  1. From Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions/2021-22 review/Implementation/Merged § Awareness of contentious topics it says When an editor first begins making edits within any contentious topic, anyone may alert the editor of the contentious topic designation using the {{Contentious topics/alert/first}} template. Only the officially designated templates should be used for an editor's first contentious topic alert ... When alerting an editor who has previously received any contentious topic alert, the {{alert}} template may be used, but any message that conveys the contentious topic designation is acceptable.
  2. Sure. Adding the standard set is a good thing, though putting in a collapse box is probably a good idea.
  3. Thanks
  4. Ah, I missed that being the case.
