Hello, I'm Dorsetonian. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Marion County Record, 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 referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''Please see WP:CHALLENGE - do not restore the material without supporting references and, given that it is controversial, ensure it is done in a neutral manner. Removing unsourced content is not vandalism and you should not label it as such.'' Dorsetonian (talk) 15:21, 12 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi BigThickMeatyLips! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Marion County Record several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree&#32;at, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Dorsetonian (talk) 15:22, 12 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.

Marion County Record
Your ref does not support your non-neutral assertion that the raid was "illegal", only that those involved claimed it was. This event is covered in a balanced manner in the body of the article. Dorsetonian (talk) 15:33, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Ditto your corresponding updates to Jake LaTurner. Dorsetonian (talk) 06:09, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

Please stop adding unreferenced or poorly referenced biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at Jake LaTurner. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Wikipedia policy. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
