Hi Publius Obsequium, I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt that this was on oversight, but your edit to
The 10,000 Year Explosion
[1] appears to be a violation of
your topic ban, which bars you from editing in the area of the intersection of race/ethnicity and human abilities and behaviour.
. The book The 10,000 Year Explosion explicitly discusses purported genetic causes for higher average IQs among Ashkenazi Jews, and indeed there is a whole section about this in our article. While your edit did not touch on this point explicitly, it did significantly downplay the book's negative reception, which was in no small part related to its treatment of purported links between race/ethnicity and behavior. For that reason, I think this is a pretty clear violation. I hope this makes sense. Pinging
Bishonen who instituted the t-ban, just so they're kept in the loop, and in case they disagree with my take on the edit. I am not doing this to advocate for additional sanctions at this time.
