June 2024

Your recent editing history at multiple pages 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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for 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.
Instead of edit-warring, discuss on talk page per WP:BRD and WP:STATUSQUO CrashLandingNew (talk) 06:33, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

First pls read WP:BRR. ZenDragoX _{(User) | (Contact)} 06:37, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Yes, you are engaging in disruptive editing as per this. CrashLandingNew (talk) 06:40, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Okay but I saw something else. Pls consider having a look at your recent contributions and decide on WP:BRR. ZenDragoX _{(User) | (Contact)} 06:42, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  ~ ToBeFree (talk) 10:29, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

@ToBeFree I acknowledge the importance of adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines and understand the gravity of edit warring. However, I believe there may have been a misunderstanding regarding my actions. In the edits in question, I attempted to mitigate the conflict by suggesting the use of the talk page for discussion, as a means to resolve disagreements amicably. I aimed to contribute constructively to the community and uphold Wikipedia's principles of collaboration and consensus-building.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide specific details on the violation that led to the block, as well as any guidance on how I can rectify the situation and prevent similar incidents in the future.

Hello Zendrago X, the easiest way to deal with such situations is to follow your own good advice and use the article's talk page instead of reverting. If you'd like to invite someone to an existing talk page discussion, you can simply do so on their user talk page; reverting is fueling the fire rather than mitigating anything. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:32, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
