Discretionary sanctions alert
edit
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 Eastern Europe or the Balkans. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions 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 discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. 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.

WikiJournal of the Humanities needs you!
editHi Paul!
I'm the editor-in-chief of the WikiJournal of the Humanities.
Given your experience with Wikipedia and understanding of academia, I'm emailing to ask whether you might be interested in getting involved as an editor for the WikiJournal of Humanities. It's modelled on the successful Wikipedia-integrated journals, the WikiJournal of Medicine, and the WikiJournal of Science. Our editorial board covers a range of fields and expertise, aiming to cover disciplines across the humanities, arts, and social sciences.
Our approach combines the rigour of academic peer review with the extensive reach of an encyclopedia. Consequently, it is an excellent way to achieve public engagement and outreach while impacting public understanding of complex scholarly topics. Articles undergo peer review and are subsequently published in both standard academic PDF format and directly onto Wikipedia, often getting over 100,000 views annually. This enhances the encyclopedia's scientific and factual accuracy and offers academics citable, indexed publications. Moreover, it enables significantly broader dissemination compared to traditional scholarly publishing methods.
The time commitment is flexible. An editor would generally dedicate 2-10 hours per month to a range of activities.
Please let me know if this aligns with your interests, or if you'd like to know more.
Your experience and expertise would be highly appreciated. Fransplace... Let's talk 23:32, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Fransplace:. Thank you for your invitation. Although I am currently more busy than in the past, and I have no time to contribute to Wikipedia (I hope, temporarily :)), I think I can dedicate 2-10 hours per month to your WikiJournal. I would be grateful if you tell me more about your journal.
- Sincerely,
- --Paul Siebert (talk) 16:52, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
