[edit]Hello, I'm Win8x. I noticed that you recently removed content from Northeast Jones High School without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. win8x (talking | spying) 21:00, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Northeast Jones High School. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. CurryTime7-24 (talk) 21:13, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
Hi JOCOHistorian! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Northeast Jones High School several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.
All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Northeast Jones High School, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. CurryTime7-24 (talk) 21:18, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Northeast Jones High School shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

- Can you please explain why giving someone their proper title is considered "Vandalism"? JOCOHistorian (talk) 15:48, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- According to WIKIPEDIA on Vandalism: Even if misguided, willfully against consensus, or disruptive, any good faith effort to improve the encyclopedia is not vandalism.
- I am trying to improve this entry by giving DOCTOR P.T. Jones his proper title, conveying the appropriate respect for him. Please explain how this is vandalism. JOCOHistorian (talk) 15:50, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- The warning you are responding to was left by User:ClueBot NG, a robot. It will call everything it reverts vandalism. For the Doctor part, you shouldn't use it, per MOS:DOCTOR. Your edits were indeed in good faith, so don't worry about the bot's vandalism definition. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. win8x (talking | spying) 22:59, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
