Edit warring in contentious topic area

edit

Do you really think it's going to work? Just changing a wikipedia article lead without any sourcing? Making it inflammatory and right wing at that. Whatever biases Wikipedia has, no one is changing them by edit warring. Sources and discusson rule here, not the truth however you may see it. Slywriter (talk) 05:38, 26 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

How is it inflammatory? This is exactly what occurred and is in the sources cited at the end of the paragraph. Christ Almighty jrn-hsv 05:39, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Edit warring is always problematic, no matter how right you think you may be. The article, especially the lead, is no place for you to inject your personal opinions and beliefs about the Twitter Files. Follow BRD. If someone rejects your bold addition or deletion, back off and use the talk page. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 05:43, 26 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Your recent editing history at Twitter Files 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; read about 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. – Muboshgu (talk) 05:39, 26 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Signature

edit

I'm not sure what's wrong, but your sigs are not the required minimum. There are no active links back to your userspace. Maybe your preferences need to be tweaked. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 06:14, 26 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Probably, plus I'm using mobile which is equally clunky. I need that "wise and beautiful editor". I'll check my sig from my PC. Thank you jrn-hsv 06:16, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

  Please remember to assume good faith when dealing with other editors, which you did not do on Talk:Twitter Files. Thank you. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:12, 12 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

this is not possible with "editors" like soibangla, who is a notorious propagandist. How is it possible to maintain neutrality when this guy is blatantly biased??? jrn-hsv (talk) 21:23, 12 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
I find that an ironically tone deaf comment coming from you. We all have our biases, and you are quite obviously not free from bias, so your accusations are just pointless personal attacks and unhelpful.
Editorial bias is normally only problematic when it affects editing or leads to attacking other editors, as you have done. So start all over and AGF at all times. We must all work together, and if you treat this as a battlefield, you'll just create disruption and get blocked. We don't want that. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 21:32, 12 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
