Hi. Regarding your recent edits to the Decapitation article, your changes had to be reverted (undone) because the subject of this article is specifically decapitation. The section you rewrote originally dealt with instances of decapitation (beheading) during the Srebrenica massacre, but your rewritten version of the section removed all mention of decapitation and replaced it with a general overview of the massacre itself. Your material might be appropriate for some other article or articles about Srebrenica, war crimes, genocide, etc., but I honestly don't believe it belongs in the article about decapitation. Please don't be discouraged or upset at this; please continue to find ways to improve Wikipedia. — Richwales 18:15, 1 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

I note that you re-did essentially the same changes to this article, even after I posted the above gentle notice. Again, this material does not belong in the Decapitation article: it goes way beyond the subject of this particular article, and perhaps more importantly, you removed material that was directly relevant to decapitation (along with sources for the same) in order to insert your out-of-scope information in its place. It is very important that you do not keep on doing this. Please also be aware that any treatment of Balkans-related topics anywhere in Wikipedia is subject to the Arbitration Committee's discretionary sanctions; see WP:ARBMAC#Standard discretionary sanctions. — Richwales 16:46, 2 May 2012 (UTC)Reply


So that there will be no question that you have been properly cautioned on this issue, I am including the official user warning box below. If you redo the same (or substantially the same) change at the Decapitation article, replacing the existing description of beheadings during the Srebrenica massacre with a general overview of the massacre and emphasizing the identification of same as genocide or a war crime, you risk being banned from this article, triggering protection of this article so as to prevent its being edited by users who are not logged in with established accounts, or being blocked from editing Wikipedia altogether.

  The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions (information on which is at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions) on any editor who is active on pages broadly related to the Balkans. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. If you engage in further inappropriate behavior in this area, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read in the Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Macedonia#Final decision section of the decision page.

Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions, with the appropriate sections of Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Procedures, and with the case decision page.

Although the Decapitation article is not generally an article about the Balkans, the Arbitration Committee's sanctions in this instance apply equally well to material related to the Balkans anywhere in Wikipedia. Please be sure you understand that the intent here is not to censor content or prevent a proper characterization of the Srebrenica massacre, but simply to make it clear that there are other, legitimate places in Wikipedia for this incident to be dealt with at length — whereas the Decapitation article is intended to deal specifically and exclusively with the topic of decapitation (beheading).

To enforce an arbitration decision, you have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for persistent disruptive editing involving a topic "related to the Balkans, broadly interpreted" per WP:ARBMAC on the page Decapitation. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing arbitration enforcement blocks and follow the instructions there to appeal your block. — Richwales 14:41, 3 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Notice to administrators: In a March 2010 decision, the Committee held that "Administrators are prohibited from reversing or overturning (explicitly or in substance) any action taken by another administrator pursuant to the terms of an active arbitration remedy, and explicitly noted as being taken to enforce said remedy, except: (a) with the written authorization of the Committee, or (b) following a clear, substantial, and active consensus of uninvolved editors at a community discussion noticeboard (such as WP:AN or WP:ANI). If consensus in such discussions is hard to judge or unclear, the parties should submit a request for clarification on the proper page. Any administrator that overturns an enforcement action outside of these circumstances shall be subject to appropriate sanctions, up to and including desysopping, at the discretion of the Committee."

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Mark Cooper (footballer, born 1968), you may be blocked from editing. Struway2 (talk) 11:12, 22 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
