European cities
Please do not return the cities without any discussion. Yout didn't ever wait for my response, that's not how to communicate. FromCzech (talk) 18:16, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
Church Slavonic
Is it used in the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church? Or do they use Ukrainian? Laurel Lodged (talk) 12:10, 9 December 2022 (UTC)
- From my experience (although I have experience only with the Greek Catholic church in Czech republic) Church Slavonic is used way more than Latin in Roman Catholic church. And Ukrainian Misplaced Pages lists the same 2 languages so I assume we can use it as well. --Pan Někdo (talk) 12:56, 9 December 2022 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics
You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, 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, Misplaced Pages’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Misplaced Pages 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 Misplaced Pages;
- 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
- refrain from gaming the system.
Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on any page within this topic.
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.
Hi there,
I noticed on Ideological bias on Misplaced Pages that you brought up the Israel / Palestine contentious topic area and saw you had not been given a CTOP notice. I think you would also like to note that IP topics are covered by an Extended Confirmed restriction wherein people who don't have extended confirmed status are supposed to leave it alone except in the form of non-controversial formal edit requests at article talk. Your edit (almost certainly inadvertently) breaches that requirement so I thought it'd be appropriate to let you know about it. Simonm223 (talk) 14:52, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
