  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Gatling gun. 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.

I understand,but this is my first time to be an Wikipedia editor.I just want these information are right and I want everyone knows about that,too. LongnamXL35 (talk) 14:10, 1 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Start a discussion on the talk page to see if you can change the consensus for that wording, rather than just reverting. If everyone just reverted to how they wanted an article nothing would ever develop into a decent article. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:16, 1 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
