Nigel Farage[edit]
Hiya! Great new para in the lede. Can I interest you in trimming the whole lede? 😉 I could be wrong of course, but it looks to me to be far too long. And hasn’t been updated with very much about his post-Brexit political career besides him now being leader of Reform UK. All the best! Boscaswell talk 01:52, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
- I do agree -- I've just trimmed a few sentences on your advice. It could certainly be trimmed further, but Farage will likely be elected to the Commons, so I believe reorganising the lede ought to be left until after the election. Keeper of Albion (talk) 10:31, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
Reform UK[edit]
Hi mate, another editor has just put the private company thing back at the top of the lede. I’ve reverted, referring to your edit, and taken it to Talk. Boscaswell talk 20:31, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
July 2024[edit]
Hi Keeper of Albion! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of 2024 shooting at a Donald Trump rally several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.
All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:2024 shooting at a Donald Trump rally, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 00:09, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'm aware. I can't stand journalese or its prevalence. Keeper of Albion (talk) 00:10, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics[edit]
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:
- 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.
