Hello, I'm Squared.Circle.Boxing. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, World Boxing Council, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. No major media outlet considers the IBO a major sanctioning body. If you can find reliable sources to state otherwise (which you won’t), then add them. – 2 . O . Boxing  19:03, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Those sources simply confirm it is a world title, because it is. They do not say it is a major world title, because it is not. I’ve started a discussion here, with an ESPN article listing the major world titles and an article from The Independent which explicitly states the IBO is a "fringe" world title. – 2 . O .

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on International Boxing Organization; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and 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.You're doing the same on the World Boxing Council, please stop and discuss on the talk page. – 2 . O . Boxing  19:44, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
 * 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.

'''Who made Wikipedia the AUTHORITY on what is MAJOR vs. MINOR? Is the NYTIMES a MAJOR or MINOR publication?

The IBO is not a NON-PROFIT, your providing incorrect information. Which makes this discussion a matter of YOUR opinion and not public opinion. ''' — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.69.203.145 (talk)
 * The sources I provided on the talk page that you’re avoiding decides whether the IBO is a minor or major sanctioning body. As I said, the NYTimes, and the other sources you provided, do not say the IBO is a major sanctioning body, they simply say it’s a world title. – 2 . O . Boxing  20:22, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at International Boxing Organization, you may be blocked from editing. – 2 . O . Boxing  20:24, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
