Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at USS John C. Stennis. 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. - wolf 15:53, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Added note

Comments such as ''We can do this all day long if you'd like" from your edit summary are not helpful, and only serve to antagonize and show your intention to prolong the dispute. Instead, you should try to engage the other editor(s) on the article talk page and discuss the matter collegially, to try to come to an agreement. If this doesn't wofk out, then your next step would be dispute resolution. But in the meantime, you should leave that content be. Further reverts and edit-warring will only lead to sanctions. - wolf 16:02, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
