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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for 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.

You need to start following WP:BRD and using reliable sources. Until you understand what reliable sources are, please consult the lists at WP:VG/S for ones that are commonly deemed usable and unusable on Wikipedia. Sergecross73 msg me 02:52, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Additionally, we don't make decisions based off of whether or not there will be repercussions from "angry Mario Kart fans" or whatever. I can't tell if you're saying it out of concern for editors, or as some sort of weird threat/coercion type thing, but it's irrelevant either way. Fan sentiment generally isn't included on Wikipedia unless reliable sources document it. Virtually all of your sources are unreliable or sketchy, so it doesn't belong in the article. Sergecross73 msg me 02:57, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Please forgive me, Sergecross73, Cyberlink420, & Dissident93. I am so very sorry. It was never my intention to engage in an edit war.

But at least please try to hear me out.

In my opinion, talking only about one issue about the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC is NOT enough.

In addition to people's gripes with the graphical differences of the tracks between the DLC & the Base game, other players & fans of the Mario Kart have raised other issues, like the DLC tracks' lack of Anti-Gravity Mechanics, & especially the DLC's lack of other content like characters, vehicles, wheels, gliders, outfits / skins (aka the "characters alts from Tour"), power-ups, & so on.

Besides GameRant & Essentially Sports, the ONLY 2 internet sources who've touched about the latter topic in regards of lack of other contet such as characters, vehicles, & more, many people on Platforms such as Twitter & YouTube have either at least mentioned said issue, or even criticized the issue. Even big name YouTubers like GameXplain, NintendoLife, & Arlo have mentioned or even wished that said content would be implemented to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to go along with the tracks.

My reasons for adding the information I've been trying to add in the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe section of the Mario Kart 8 Wikipedia page is because NOT everyone focuses on only one issue that the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC has. You can't always say that the graphical differences is the ONLY issue that the DLC, you need to discuss OTHER issues, too.

And everytime I saw that information removed, I felt that you were censoring information that Mario Kart fans could at least be aware of.

As much as I want to share legitimate sources that discuss the DLC's issue of Lack of characters, vehicles, & other content, the PROBLEM is that other than GameRant & Essentially sports, big name news sources, as far as I know of, DON'T DO THAT.

The only people I know who discuss on or even at least mention such an issue are...

-GameRant

-Essentially Sports

-YouTubers, including big names like GameXplain, NintendoLife, & Arlo

-Twitter Users

At least consider that you can't always focus on only one issue that fans have with the DLC. You have to consider OTHER issues, too.

Besides, if YouTube Videos & Twitter Tweets are allowed as references so long as they're legitimate, like with the Green Eggs & Ham (TV Series) Wikipedia page having the Trailer on YouTube & the Announcement Date on a Netflix Twitter account as references, why not videos made by big names like GameXplain & NintendoLife?

But all things considered, if you really don't want to me to edit the Mario Kart 8 page anymore, then fine, I'll knock it off.

Just at least PLEASE consider the OTHER issues that the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe DLC has, and not only one issue it has. Okay?

Sincerely & with humblest apologies,
