Important Notice

[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in gender-related disputes or controversies or in people associated with them. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Polygenic scores for IQ

[edit]

Hi friend. I just wanted to tell you not to bother trying to add the polygenic scores for IQ to the race an intelligence article, seriously. It is not about the reliability of the journals, and they know it. These polygenic scores are also discussed Bird (2021) in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology, and in Nature, and Evolutionary Behavioral Sciences and many more journals. You cannot add those to the article either. Look at the last time someone tried to add information on those polygenic scores here. [1] They’ll just gang up to lie, say it is synthesis and shut you down. And here is the official reason:

“it would need to be presented in much more detail than the OP has done in order to avoid facile misreading.”

In other words, those ignorant peasants who read the encyclopedia might interpret this data in a way we do not like, therefore they cannot be shown it. Intellectual dishonesty at its worst.

They will not listen to me because I am blocked, but if you could find an admin with some intellectual integrity that can block the ones who we can show intentionally lie about this, that would contribute a lot to bringing back Wikipedia. 186.168.87.152 (talk) 22:08, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics

[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to abortion, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief 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 or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
