A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as ''contentious topics''.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit <strong>carefully</strong> and <strong>constructively</strong>, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and: |
|||
*adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia; |
|||
*comply with all applicable policies and guidelines; |
|||
*follow editorial and behavioural best practice; |

*comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and |

No idea, whether I am doing this correctly, but I have a problem with Italian phonology, because, and I don't know how this happened, it has headings, which say "6-10 months", "18 months", "12 months", etc. And I cannot find the edit thereto, otherwise maybe I would have reverted it. Could somebody look into that weird thing? Much appreciated,
