Your recent editing history 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.

- Thanks Daniel. I had not realized someone was warring with me - was totally unaware. I left them mention of the issue on their talk page.[1] Pointed to the rationale for removal. Indicated in my edit summary. And mentioned that they had not given any reason for their revert. Thanks again.2603:7000:2143:8500:6825:3E6:E1FF:4C08 (talk) 04:09, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
- BTW, since I'm the only one who left an edit summary, and I don't think I reverted them more than once whereas they reverted me many times - why did they not receive a warning? Just wondering. 2603:7000:2143:8500:6825:3E6:E1FF:4C08 (talk) 04:29, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Just to let you know, your edits have been setting off the edit filter, which gets you reported to AIV by the bots.
Here's an idea ... maybe you could see if there are reliable sources for the same info and swap them in? It's more work but it's also more constructive and less likely to provoke this sort of response. Daniel Case (talk) 04:19, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
