You have recently edited a page related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, 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:
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.

Hi Jonesey95, I saw your stylesheet changes to reduce blank spaces on the page, but it goes a bit too far for me. I'm just hoping to reduce the amount of blank space to the right of the pinned tools menu and expand the article width by a corresponding amount, maybe 40px at a time until it seems too wide. I don't want to reduce the amount of blank space on the left. Is there some minimal set of common.css changes that would do that? I have been unable to figure this out. (I have "Enable limited width mode" checked in my preferences and I don't toggle to use full width. My screen is 1440x900 if that matters.) Thanks! Daniel Quinlan ( talk) 06:39, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Since it sounds from the template talk page that you will not be following through, I thought I'd get your thoughts on me filing review of our mutual acquaintance's conduct at AN, with the view to potentially pull their TPE access. You and I both suffered through the {{ marriage}} nonsense, but is that enough to merit removal?

Hello, Jonesey95,
What do you think Template:Nearest meighbour for whole page/style.css is for? Misspelling? I also don't understand how this editor moved this template without leaving a redirect. That usually only happens if the editor is a Page Mover. But since you know so much about templates (and when pages are mistakenly placed in Template space), I thought you might know. I just happened to spot it on the Move log. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 22:15, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
Hi Jonesey; re your notes on the GOCE annual report
here, the figures you flagged as possibly inaccurate are for requests submitted from 1 January to 31 December, inclusive. The figures above that line refer to those processed from 1 Jan to 31 Dec, inclusive. The percentage you flagged in the header refers to these stats (I've now corrected the latter point). Does this make sense or am I wrong? Math(s) was never my strong point!
Also, what to do about the unwritten "Closing words" section? Would you or Miniapolis like to write some closing text? If no-one's bothered, I can remove it before sending. I don't want to tread on any toes, particularly those of the Lede Coord, which is partly why I've left the report alone for a week. But if I leave it too long, nothing gets sent out, which is sad. Thanks for your input there, btw. :) Cheers, Baffle☿gab 06:22, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

About the broken syntax, i copied it from the earlier versions of the (section about the participating clubs in the) 2023 Emperor's Cup i retrieved by accident. After further inspection, i believe this mistake was corrected by someone else after i didn't took notice of the "coding error" (i don't know the right term), as the syntax does not present any error in the current version of the (section of) article.

Hello, Jonesey95,
I wanted to nominate the template at the bottom of Coptic Orthodox Church in South America for consideration at TFD but I can't find the page that it is on. When I click V or E, it takes me to a generic template page for templates about the Americas. Can you either point me to the right, specific template page so I can nominate it or post the nomination yourself? It's just a collection of red links for a small church that is highly unlikely to expand throughout a large region in the coming future. Thanks! Liz Read! Talk! 18:32, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
Examples of inappropriate articles for these templates are .... I could create a one-off navbox instance called "Blue-faced species of bananas in the Americas" by transcluding the template at the bottom of a page, and it would be all red. In this case, I think your only option is to remove the navbox from the article if all of the redlinks bother you. – Jonesey95 ( talk) 18:59, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
Hi there. I see you and User:Frietjes are skilled with templates. At Template:US Census population, would it be possible to add an option so this template could also lay horizontally, or in columns?
I mostly edit US city articles, and very often this lengthy template pokes deep into the bottom of an article, such as Hamilton, Georgia.
Template:Historical populations, by comparison, has options such as columns and horizontal layout.
Is this possible? Thanks! -- Magnolia677 ( talk) 11:55, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

I could fix it myself by bracketing the three lines with {{ smalldiv}}, but I'd rather leave it to someone with more experience with modules than me. — Bruce1ee talk 08:16, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
At some point after that edit, I realized stuff like that was happening, and cleaned up most (I thought all) of the instances where that occurred. However, you obviously found one of the instances where I did not fix the issue. I have since added a "[^']
" into my search regex, making my search "[^'],'''''
" instead of ",'''''
" so it doesn't return pages with an apostrophe before the comma.

You removed a {{
border}}
from
West Bengal Film Journalists' Association Award for Best Actress, with edit summary "Please RTFM. Template:Border is for wrapping text. It uses span tags, so it can't wrap div-based elements." This article had a bunch of {{
border}}
'd [[File]]
calls; the one you removed was a {{
border}}
around {{
CSS image crop}}
, which was the only one causing a div-span-flip. Another user reverted you; I reverted that user, but that left all images but the cropped one with borders, so I removed all of the borders. It's strange that {{
border}}
generates div-span-flip lint errors around cropped images but not around regular images. —

Hi, very minor question. You offered advice recently on Miniapolis talk page, re: resolving dispute over c/e, and mentioned "the wrong IMO". What means IMO? I checked WP Abbr, Glossary, and Edit summary legend page, but couldn't find, and google had too many high freq irrelev hits.

parameter does not appear to do anything, and it does not appear to be used often, why not just remove it? –

Hello, Jonesey95,
I wanted to nominate the template at the bottom of Coptic Orthodox Church in South America for consideration at TFD but I can't find the page that it is on. When I click V or E, it takes me to a generic template page for templates about the Americas. Can you either point me to the right, specific template page so I can nominate it or post the nomination yourself? It's just a collection of red links for a small church that is highly unlikely to expand throughout a large region in the coming future. Thanks! Liz Read! Talk! 18:32, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
Examples of inappropriate articles for these templates are .... I could create a one-off navbox instance called "Blue-faced species of bananas in the Americas" by transcluding the template at the bottom of a page, and it would be all red. In this case, I think your only option is to remove the navbox from the article if all of the redlinks bother you. – Jonesey95 ( talk) 18:59, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
Hi there. I see you and User:Frietjes are skilled with templates. At Template:US Census population, would it be possible to add an option so this template could also lay horizontally, or in columns?
I mostly edit US city articles, and very often this lengthy template pokes deep into the bottom of an article, such as Hamilton, Georgia.
Template:Historical populations, by comparison, has options such as columns and horizontal layout.
Is this possible? Thanks! -- Magnolia677 ( talk) 11:55, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
|cols=2
or |cols=3
with
Template:Historical populations. if we made
Template:US Census population a wrapper, these options would be supported.

Can you move Template:WikiProject Writing/Sign up to Template:WikiProject Writing sign up and Template:WikiProject Writing sign up to Template:WikiProject Writing sign up/sign (or something) as it better shows the template connections this way. Gonnym ( talk) 11:06, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for this; it makes an immediate and positive difference. I have to say that while i don't remember if we've actually interacted previously, i know that i have learned from your technical ability and have, as in this case, taken information or tweaks you have suggested and used them. Happy days, ~ Lindsay H ello 08:39, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

In response to your query "Why does this keep happening?"
in this edit, the problem is <small>...</small>
tags spanning multiple lines in
Module:NewDYKnomination here:
<small>${STATUS} by ${AUTHORS}. ${NOMINATED} at ~~~~~. Number of QPQs required: ${QPQS_REQUIRED} Post-promotion hook changes [[User:GalliumBot#darn|will be logged]] on the talk page; consider [[Help:Watchlist|watching]] the nomination until the hook appears on the Main Page.</small>
I could fix it myself by bracketing the three lines with {{ smalldiv}}, but I'd rather leave it to someone with more experience with modules than me. — Bruce1ee talk 08:16, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
At some point after that edit, I realized stuff like that was happening, and cleaned up most (I thought all) of the instances where that occurred. However, you obviously found one of the instances where I did not fix the issue. I have since added a "[^']
" into my search regex, making my search "[^'],'''''
" instead of ",'''''
" so it doesn't return pages with an apostrophe before the comma.

You removed a {{
border}}
from
West Bengal Film Journalists' Association Award for Best Actress, with edit summary "Please RTFM. Template:Border is for wrapping text. It uses span tags, so it can't wrap div-based elements." This article had a bunch of {{
border}}
'd [[File]]
calls; the one you removed was a {{
border}}
around {{
CSS image crop}}
, which was the only one causing a div-span-flip. Another user reverted you; I reverted that user, but that left all images but the cropped one with borders, so I removed all of the borders. It's strange that {{
border}}
generates div-span-flip lint errors around cropped images but not around regular images. —

elements any more. They used to, but the MediaWiki software was altered at some point in the last few months so that images are enclosed in <figure>...</figure>
elements. --

Hi, very minor question. You offered advice recently on Miniapolis talk page, re: resolving dispute over c/e, and mentioned "the wrong IMO". What means IMO? I checked WP Abbr, Glossary, and Edit summary legend page, but couldn't find, and google had too many high freq irrelev hits. Context was: sentences with awkward usage, one w/ verb tense, the other awk serial semicolons. Thanks! — Yogabear2020 (N.B. NoviceEditor; Talk) 00:54, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

I can't figure this divflip error out. Template:Letter A few hundred issues due to the two errors on the template, and I don't want to just hack at it with test edits. Cheers, Zinnober9 ( talk) 23:50, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
