You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on South African farm attacks; 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.''
 * 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.

I'm assuming, based on your statement that this is "Wikipedia 101" that this isn't your first account, so I will skip the welcome message.

The onus is definitely on you to support changes you would like to make. The currently cited sources, and many more besides, support that this is a white nationalist talking point. Reliable sources do not have to cite reliable sources for self-identification, and Wikipedia is not concerned with helping white nationalists with their "optics" anyway. The place for you to gain consensus for these changes is the article's talk page. '' Grayfell (talk) 23:35, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
