Hello, I'm Asartea. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to The Red Pill—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Asartea ^{Talk | Contribs} 13:09, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at The Red Pill. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges on that page. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. GorillaWarfare (talk) 17:42, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

Sources

Welcome to Wikipedia. Based on your edits and edit summaries, it appears you may be unfamiliar with Wikipedia's policy on reliable sources. Specifically, you appear to have some misunderstandings on what constittues a "reliable" source. The following are some links that help explain this term as used on Wikipedia.

• WP:BIASED - A point of view by a source does not make them unreliable
• WP:SELFSOURCE - We don't use organizations' self-definitions as the main source, but we can use them when attributing that definition to them
• WP:WIKIVOICE - Describing when we state things with or without explicit author attribution
• WP:RSP - A list of sources that frequently are questioned
• WP:RSN - The Reliable Source Noticeboard
