Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Uyghur genocide, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Assimilation. 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.)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Genocide, you may be blocked from editing.

The article is about the general concept - which includes an internationally recognised legal definition, not more marginal specific uses.

If you wish to alter the scope of the article (which is effectively what you are arguing for), the WP:ONUS is on you to gain concensus, not on others to defend the pre-existing text, and particularly not to edit-war your favourite version back into the article. I know of NO instance where the general agreement is that genocide took place, which did not involve killing based on race. That there are marginal definitions that are based on other criteria does not alter this central fact.Template:Z188 Pincrete (talk) 07:49, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

User:Pincrete The problem is that who determines what is a "recognized genocide" in this context? Academia? Specific political organizations? Certain countries? As stated earlier in my edit summaries as well as the article itself, recognition of certain events as genocide often varies depending on the organization/government. There have been cases where certain events have been considered by some governments as genocide of which there is scant evidence of deliberate mass killing (for example Canada and the Netherlands with the ongoing treatment of Uyghurs). There are also cases where an event has recognition as genocide by many countries/non-fringe organizations but whose recognition is not universal (ex. the Holodomor). And even cases where there's broad recognition of genocide, there are those who think otherwise (ex. the Turkish government with respect to the Armenian Genocide). In addition to the statement itself being unsourced, to say that mass killing has been present in "all recognized genocides" is highly misleading given genocides tend to have varying degrees of recognition as well as that the definition of genocide is contentious.

Furthermore, you should not be accusing users of vandalism just because one makes a substantial change in the article. My edits were based on the varying definitions of the word genocide in the article as well as the fact that genocide "recognition" often varies, not just because it's my "favourite version". I apologize for reverting excessively, though.Dankmemes2 (talk)

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date. You have shown interest in Uyghur genocide. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has enacted a more stringent set of rules. Any administrator may impose sanctions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Hello, I'm JPxG. I noticed that in this edit to Xi Jinping, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. jp×g 04:06, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
