Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, 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.

Trans Aid Cymru

Where did the logo for the Trans Aid Cymru article come from? Unless it is freely licensed it can't be used in the draft. Reconrabbit 15:33, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

@Reconrabbit

Hi, I used to be one of the Trans Aid Cymru volunteers, and made the logo Sleepytimecat (talk) 23:09, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

Okay. I don't see anything on the Trans Aid Cymru website that indicates any level of copyright or any indication of ownership at all. I don't have enough experience to say one way or another what is good or not so I guess it is okay. Reconrabbit 23:23, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

@Reconrabbit No problem! Thanks for checking :) Sleepytimecat (talk) 23:28, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
