Edit warring

Your recent editing history 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.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:53, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

Also, please stop marking your edits as minor. Outside of basic grammar corrections, vandalism reverts, and a small handful of other instances, edits should not be marked as minor.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:58, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

Thanks very much for these. I'm a little new to Wikipedia and should perhaps have spent more time reading the rules before contributing. I haven't enjoyed being in conflict with another contributor, I haven't reverted their change gratuitously or out of malice, and have tried to justify all the changes that I've made to the article as much as possible; also, I've tried to be as polite to the other user as possible.

Reference caption

The caption in the reference for the ODNB text you quoted on Talk:R. D. Laing is to a "Baker, Sir George", though the actual link is to the Laing article - you may want to adjust that caption? AllyD (talk) 13:36, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
