I just want you to know

That I pulled up this diff after seeing the edit summary on my watchlist and thinking I was going to be reverting some inexpert screed in article space, but then when I looked at the changes and your source, I laughed out loud.

I'm gonna warn you now, though: Some people are going to get real offended by that. I hope you enjoy schadenfreude as much as I do. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 21:27, 14 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

@MPants at work: One's feelings are irrelevant. Several studies have shown that belief in conspiracy theories is linked to low intelligence and lack of thinking. It's not exactly something new to people, if anything, it is obvious.--Emily19911991 (talk) 21:30, 14 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
I agree, and in case it isn't clear, I do support your addition.
I'm just pointing out that it's very likely that this will kick off a nice, vociferous round of complaints about WP's bias and how stupid all us skeptics are for not believing that Bill Gates wants to microchip up to wipe out the human race because he's a Zeta Reticulan bent on world domination, and only the Men in Black in their black helicopters can stop him (after they're done raiding friendly foreign powers to collect evidence that Hillary Clinton is a devil worshipper). ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 21:40, 14 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
@MPants at work: No revert has been made so far. Most people know that conspiracy theorists are nutjobs.--Emily19911991 (talk) 22:53, 15 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Elvis Presley. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although 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:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. 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. Bluesatellite (talk) 10:33, 8 September 2021 (UTC) @Bluesatellite: Instead of posting this claptrap on my talk page, why don’t you actually engage in a discussion on the talk page? You don’t get to express a false analogy and opinions on a talk page which are irrelevant. A talk page is meant to discuss and post resolve sources backing up claims. I have backed up with reliable sources about the information that has been included in the article for years and which you think that you can magically remove without any real justification.--Emily19911991 (talk) 10:39, 8 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

edit

  Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Emily19911991 reported by User:Aoi (Result: ). Thank you. Aoi (青い) (talk) 12:16, 8 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Aoi: So let me get this straight… a user can remove information without any justification other than his opinion and then when it is revered it is okay for him to continue to revert but the person who restored the information gets reported? How does that work exactly?--Emily19911991 (talk) 12:51, 8 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
