You have recently edited a page related to Eastern Europe or the Balkans, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an 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.

Thanks for your contributions to Battle of Warsaw (1945). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and it has too many problems of language or grammar. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Battle of Berestechko, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Materialscientist ( talk) 06:10, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
Hello, Olek Novy!
Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the
Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the
Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there!

Hi, given your interest in Jankowce Massacre/ Battle of Yankivtsi, you should visit and participate in its WP:Articles for Deletion discussion and not have moved the article (and maybe not that full of a rewrite during the AFD): Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Battle of Yankivtsi. Thanks. Skynxnex ( talk) 19:35, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for starting this, but currently this is too poorly referenced to be accepted. Modern standards require footnote referencing for every paragraph, and you just cite a general and rather old (communist era) work with not even a page range. Comapre this to the articlez I wrote few months ago on WWII topics and you'll see how a new Wikipedia article this days should look: Detached Unit of the Polish Army or German atrocities committed against Polish prisoners of war.

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. -- Yamla ( talk) 17:28, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Deluge (history). This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. TylerBurden ( talk) 19:54, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.
If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider
.Thanks again, and happy editing!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Deluge (history), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Status Quo. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, -- DPL bot ( talk) 05:55, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. TylerBurden ( talk) 22:20, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ukrainian-Polish conflict in Volhynia until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.Marcelus ( talk) 22:01, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

I will assess this article within the next few days if no one else gets to it first. It appears that it has not been assessed because the bot did not recognize it as a military history article and no one tagged it as such or put it up for review. I can only speculate as to why this occurred. One speculative possibility that I will mention is that the article for creation tag, though checked, may have contributed to the article being considered incomplete or in effect a draft (though apparently not labelled as such as near as I can tell). It's in the pipeline now. Donner60 ( talk) 03:06, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
