Not surprisingly, Kipling's nationality has been discussed before on Wikipedia. You were asked to take your argument to the article's Talk page. Had you done so you would have found Talk:Rudyard Kipling#Nationality. Please follow that link and have a read. HiLo48 (talk) 17:51, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

[edit]
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Rudyard Kipling; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Favonian (talk) 21:18, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
Next edit warring warning...
[edit]Since you seem determined to ignore everything that other editors are telling you, I suppose I will have to break out the bold type: Stop edit-warring at Rudyard Kipling or you will be blocked. The way to determine a contested change in an article is not to just continually ram it in and hope the other side gets worn out, it is to discuss the matter on the talk page; where consensus currently is firmly for describing Kipling as a writer of English nationality; in which we follow the sources that the article is based on. Your repeated edits to the contrary are disruptive and will in short order make you lose the ability to edit the article at all. Stop. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 18:48, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
