Tips 
 * Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
 * It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
 * If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Sign your messages with four tildes ( ~ ), be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
 * When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
 * If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
 * Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

March 2022
Hello, I'm Binksternet. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Christian left seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 02:49, 25 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi, my edits are neutral, it actually makes the article more neutral than before (which conflates Political Left views some Christians hold with Theologically Liberal views on Christian doctrine). Political Christian Left is different from Theologically Liberal Christianity (although in certain instances there is overlap). For example a person can be a theologically conservative by holding to the belief of biblical inerrancy but be Politically Christian Left by holding political views of economic progressivism or other left-wing politics such as Gudina Tumsa of the Ethiopian Evangelical Church Mekane Yesus


 * The main problem with your edits on multiple pages about Christianity is that you are adding material that is not supported by citation. There is a hard policy against that at Wikipedia: the first policy is WP:Verifiable and the second is WP:No original research. Your assessments spanning multiple articles are adding a new layer that is not supported by any published works cited in those articles. Binksternet (talk) 03:20, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi BlackEvangelical! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of an article 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, 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. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:03, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Evangelicalism 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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for 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.

Conservative Christianity
Let me give you a friendly warning that you are coming close to edit warring at Conservative Christianity. Your edits also seem not neutral to me. The Banner talk 12:03, 25 March 2022 (UTC)


 * And I agree with that your changes are not an improvement. Disambiguation pages are not articles, and your sources were unreliable anyway. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 12:22, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, I would like to kindly ask, what criteria are you using to determine these sources are unreliable, what sources on this subject matter do you approve of (I’ve seen these sources as reliable staples within the Evangelical Protestant community - the authors are affiliated with universities with a college of theology or for one such article, it was published by a theological college).

 * Please also see Talk:Conservative Christianity BlackEvangelical (talk) 16:33, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
 * This is a blog, WP:SPS, so not reliable aside from the views of the author. This is just the view of the organization, which is not academic or reliable, especially per The Gospel Coalition Canada helps people know God's Word with their mind, love God fully with their heart, and engage the world with grace and truth. This is just a YouTube video by some random person. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:40, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
