- I was told by another editor that I can do it on sandbox, not on official pages which is what I am doing now. the editor was lizard8 . Broskalitre (talk) 05:39, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- In this case it doesn't matter where you're doing it. You're making a bunch of trivial edits simply up upgrade your user rights. The very reason we have restrictions for user access levels is, essentially, to ensure they have reached a certain level of trust before they can perform certain actions. You are trying to circumvent that. TornadoLGS (talk) 05:43, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- Bro then I am sorry man. You can ask the editor called lizard8 who told me I can simply edit things on sandbox.I also didnt know that I coudnt do that bruh.That was why I am simply editing things Broskalitre (talk) 05:46, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- There is no editor User:Lizard8 on Wikipedia and the only place you have talked to other editors is here, on your User talk page so your claim of being instructed to make meaningless edits on your Sandbox is not true. Liz Read! Talk! 05:54, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}
. voorts (talk/contributions) 05:43, 9 February 2025 (UTC)- The reason is, I did not know that I also could not simply edit things on wikipedia. I WAS TOLD by an editor named Lizardjr8 that I COULD EDIT ANYTHING ON THE SANDBOX PAGE. That was why I did it.I also made an edit on the russian occupation of sumy oblast and it is still there.That was when I THOUGHT I could raise my rights to edit on sandbox. (You can go see for yourself on russian occupation of sumy oblast my username that time was 115.66.41.39)The reason I wanted to raise my rights is that there are very less updates on the russian invaision of ukraine.That was why I wanted to use that opportunity to edit as many things as I can like the editor lizardjr8 told me.If I was granted extended permission, I would contribute to the russian invasion of ukraine article based on websites such as, Kyiv independent, Aljeezra,ISW , The moscow times, and more. Broskalitre (talk) 05:54, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- You're entirely missing the point. You have to earn the trust to have those editing permissions. Through normal editing. Gaming the system is absolutely against the rules for a reason. - The Bushranger One ping only 06:05, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- LizardJr8 didn't tell you that you could do whatever you want in your sandbox. He warned you after you made a series of nonsense edits at Russian occupation of Sumy Oblast. voorts (talk/contributions) 06:06, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- Then I think I misunderstood and made a mistake.Then, I promise I will make normal edits with proof . I THOUGHT he said that I could edit anything in sandbox. I also did not know I was being watched.I also thought that the sandbox is private. So I promise to edit properly if you unblock me then.It was a misunderstanding Broskalitre (talk) 06:14, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- To answer your question, all pages on Wikipedia, including sandboxes, are publicly visible as is the history of edits made to them. Every user's history of contributions is also publicly visible. And no, most of us are not celebrities. TornadoLGS (talk) 03:01, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
- By the way, are you all celebrities? Broskalitre (talk) 06:16, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- can you reply pls? Broskalitre (talk) 06:21, 9 February 2025 (UTC)
- Bro, please reply me.My reason for me to get unblocked is because it was a misunderstanding and I heard wrongly. Broskalitre (talk) 06:45, 9 February 2025 (UTC)

- Hello dear administrators, I have went through multiple times what was wrong and finally thought about it. I noticed my mistake.I recently noticed that when I was talking to lizardjr8, I noticed that he said that if I only want to practice editing , then I can use sandbox.I also noticed that I cannot spam or game while editing for extended permission and I know I must earm it through editing with proof like links or websites. I noticed my mistake, and I will never do it again. I formally apologise and I hope you will forgive me. I am also very sorry about just now and my disrespectful behaviour.I have noticed my mistake and I hope you will forgive me.I will never do it again.And if I do, you may block me forever. I am sorry and I am asking for forgiveness and for my account to be unblocked. Thank you. Broskalitre (talk) 08:47, 9 February 2025 (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 an expanded level of powers and discretion 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 practices;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
