Talk:Homeopathy/Article probation: Difference between revisions

A community discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard (archived here) has placed homeopathy and related articles on article probation. Please direct all discussions of this remedy to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard.

Editors making disruptive edits may be banned by an administrator from homeopathy and related articles or project pages. Editors of such articles should be especially mindful of content policies, such as WP:NPOV, and interaction policies, such as WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA, WP:3RR, and WP:POINT. Editors must be individually notified on their talk page of article probation before being banned. All resulting blocks and bans shall be logged at Talk:Homeopathy/Article probation#Log of blocks and bans, and may be appealed to the Administrators' noticeboard.

The following notice, {{Homeopathy/Warning}} may be placed on the talk pages of relevant articles:

The contentious topics procedure applies to this page. This page is related to complementary and alternative medicine, which has been designated as a contentious topic.

Editors are advised to familiarise themselves with the contentious topics procedures before editing this page.

• Do not editwar;

• Not much leeway in pages under probation, so basically be a model Wikipedian;
• We actually know when we cross the line; we are all intelligent people;
• Don't get worked up when you get subjected to remedies such as a temporary block or ban. Take a break and come back refreshed.
