Hello, I'm Kaobear. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to White Russia has been undone because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Kaobear (talk) 14:30, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at All-Russian nation. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Kaobear (talk) 13:35, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to White Russia. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Iryna Harpy (talk) 21:40, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Talk:White Russia

Please add new threads to the bottom of the page. I moved yours to the bottom of Talk:White Russia. See wp:talk pages and wp:Talk page guidelines
Please wp:cite wp:reliable sources to talk pages as well. People won't want to look things up when you can supply them. You might just be ignored otherwise. Jim1138 (talk) 07:43, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

Copied reply to this page to keep conversation on one page. Jim1138 (talk) 23:09, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

Dear Jim, sources (maps) have been added but Argos keeps deleting them. White Russia is a term used for several historical Russian territories. It had not always been the name for Republic of Belarus.

By any chance, did you read what I said here? You added your talk to the top of my talk page, not to the bottom. Also, if you read the top of my talk page, you would have seen a request to respond here and not on the top of my talk page.

One likely reason for the revert was that you did not add references to some of your statements. This statement, for instance: White Russia ,also a term used for other several historical Russian territories e.g. The Grand Duchy of Moscow, The territories for Novgorod. E.g. The first map dates from the beginning of the 16th century and describes Novgorod as 'Rossia Blanca'.

Adding references is how we ensure that content is valid. Without references, a reader can not easily validate information and there is no presumption of accuracy. This is covered by the Wikipedia policy of wp:verifiability. Please wp:cite your edits with wp:reliable sources. See Help:Referencing for beginners, Help:Citation Style 1 and wp:Inline citations Jim1138 (talk) 23:09, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

I added images of the antique maps from several European cartographers on which my text was based, however it was deleted by some user. These images that were added had a source also. With the year, name of author of the maps. Vladislav Nikolaevitch (talk) 14:26, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

Edit warring notice

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on White Russia. 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.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

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; 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. Jim1138 (talk) 21:32, 18 June 2016 (UTC)

Note that any more WP:OR and WP:POV additions and removals will be reverted. If you have reliably sourced content to add, take it to the article's talk page for discussion. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 01:40, 19 June 2016 (UTC)

Be reminded that edit warring does not necessarily take place within a 24 hour period, but through persistent changes to the same content over a more protracted period and is particularly frowned on when dealing with subject matter that falls under WP:ARBEE sanctions.

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Your recent talk page comments were not added to the bottom of the page. New discussion page messages and topics should always be added to the bottom. Your message may have been moved. In the future you can use the "New section" link in the top right. For more details see the talk page guidelines.
I've noticed that you've been making this error on article (and user) talk pages. I've moved a couple of these down to the correct position, but I've probably missed a few. The easiest method by which to avoid this mistake is to click on the "New section" tab at the top of the page. Cheers! Iryna Harpy (talk) 22:58, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
