Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Winter Olympic Games, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. --David Biddulph (talk) 17:30, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I may have read the situation wrong but I don't think this user has been committing any intentional vandalism. I think this is good faith editing with a set purpose. The user has changed the layout of the Summer Olympic Games list (although why it needed updating I don't actually know) but it was a good edit and I saw no problem there. Then when the temporary protection was lifted from the Winter Olympic Games article earlier today, this user simply implemented the same change to the Winter Olympic Games list so the two articles matched. This was reverted by Courcelles for some reason (WP:JDLI?) so this user tried to make the edit again but made a bit of a half-job of it and you interpreted that as vandalism. I would suggest that the page protection could be lifted and the user engaged in a reasonable discussion on the subject. If you have objected to the table being changed in the winter article then maybe it should also be reverted in the summer article? Or we could allow it to be changed in both? I have no strong preference either way. I did prefer the heading Olympiad to Edition and I thought the start and end date were fine combined into one column before, also liked it as a sortable list previously, but one big improvement was the referencing which was all up the spout in the original version so that should definitely be preserved. Apologies to said user, you don't have a name with which I may refer to you, just an IP address (125.107.157.122). Regards, Rodney Baggins (talk) 18:23, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I reverted it because in the IP's version, the table ended in 1984, see . If he wants to modify the format of the table, whatever, but leaving off the last 9 Olympics looks mighty close to vandalism.  Courcelles (talk) 18:26, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * The edits which I reverted deleted most of the list, leaving nothing after 1944. My warning did not use the word "vandalism", but there was disruptive deletion. --David Biddulph (talk) 18:29, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * OK, yes I see the list was incomplete on both occasions so couldn't be left as it was. The page protection uses the words "persistent vandalism" and I would question the need for a 3 month page protection? Maybe we should see if the user has anything to say here...

 * Every time that page has been unprotected since a while before Peyongchang, the disruptive editing comes right back. I suspect in a while it'll go back to normal and people will ignore it until Beijing in 2022, but we're not there yet. Courcelles (talk) 19:06, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
