Hi LakeGarda! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Milan several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Milan, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Peaceray (talk) 05:10, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Milan. 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. Peaceray (talk) 05:14, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

LakeGarda, you are well beyond the Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule. As WP:BRD suggests, please discuss your proposed changes & get consensus on the talk page. WP:EDITCONSENSUS applies here, & you are making a substantial change by crediting Napolean with the revitalization of Milan. I am going to restore the last-know good version. I suspect that another reversion will get you blocked, & I would prefer to see that not happen.

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

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:LakeGarda reported by User:Peaceray (Result: ). Thank you. Peaceray (talk) 05:34, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

July 2022

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule, as you did at Milan. 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 read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Bbb23 (talk) 12:47, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

Blocked as a sockpuppet

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:ItalianConquest per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ItalianConquest. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. In addition, your ability to edit your talk page has also been revoked.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then submit a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.  Girth Summit _(blether) 14:32, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
