Please try "Show preview"
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Anti-LGBT rhetoric, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 11:10, 12 August 2023 (UTC)


 * what did I do? BarneyTheFarmy (talk) 11:16, 12 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi BarneyTheFarmy, regarding my show preview above, when editing an article, please avoid making multiple minor edits. When you click "Publish changes", the change is immediately visible to the world. You wouldn't submit something incomplete to your college prof? Face-smile.svg It's best to have the article ready for publication when you do so. If you click "Show preview", you can see what your change looks like, check links and citations.
 * Regarding your edits to Anti-LGBT rhetoric being undone: Please don't change "70 countries" to "Uganda" as you did to unless there is a valid reason for doing so. Remember, Wikipedia should be a world-view and not about a single country. Also, please keep on-topic. That article is about "anti-LGBT rhetoric", not homophobia. You might ask the editor who undid your edit,  about their reasoning. Or, ask at the wp:Teahouse - I'm not the best at this. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 19:04, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
 * BTW: use help:notifications if you want to have the discussion on your talk page. Otherwise, discuss it on theirs. If the discussion is about the topic, have it on the article's talk page, such as talk:Anti-LGBT rhetoric. See help:talk pages, or for the full-blown, overwhelmingly detailed policy wp:talk page guidelines. Also, the wp:Simplified Manual of Style or the full-blown wp:Manual of Style.

Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits while logged out. Please be mindful not to perform controversial edits while logged out, or your account risks being blocked from editing. Please consider reading up on Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts before editing further. Additionally, making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing. Thank you. Miner Editor (talk) 02:02, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Edits to the Steven Crowder article which I reverted, then logged in, and unlogged in, complaints to my talk page demonstrating the IP editor is Barney. Miner Editor (talk) 02:04, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
 * i don't care about my location or identity at all. Not even my own family, all I care about in life rn is editing wikipedia. BarneyTheFarmy (talk) 02:04, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

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; read about 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&mdash;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&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Warning
I see you're attacking MrOllie on their page, such as "This is why Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger, Elon musk, and many others criticized Wikipedia for being biased, because of editors like you." Personal attacks are not allowed here, see WP:NPA. Stop it or you're likely to be blocked. Bishonen &#124; tålk 07:50, 18 August 2023 (UTC).


 * I'll be blocked? He's literally breaking the rules of this website by being biased. He's also breaking the rules, so he can do it but I can't? This is probably why most people don't edit Wikipedia. BarneyTheFarmy (talk) 11:27, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Also I'm not making personal attacks. The definition of personal is "concerning one's private life, relationships, and emotions rather than matters connected with one's public or professional career". He's breaking the rules and I'm not, why am I the one who's getting blocked. Isn't being biased in articles against Wikipedia policies? BarneyTheFarmy (talk) 11:31, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

Block
You have again added your own unsourced opinion to an article, Tupac Shakur, such as "being falsely accused of rape". Your edit summary "Also why can't I include he was a poet and actor? That's probably sourced somewhere" shows a depth of ignorance of what our sourcing policies mean. Listening to what more experienced editors tell you would be really helpful to you, but I see no signs that you're prepared to do that. You have been blocked for 48 hours. If your tendentious editing continues, the next block will be longer. You can request unblock from an uninvolved administrator by placing  on this page. Bishonen &#124; tålk 12:43, 20 August 2023 (UTC).

If you post content like what I just removed here again, the block will be extended and you will lose access to this page. 331dot (talk) 22:21, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
