Your recent editing history at Greece shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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 BRD 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

I have started a discussion on Greece talk page. Take notice that many editors may come from Greece, so they may have a biased opinion on the matter. I have all the evidence needed to make this change in the article. And I think the evidence is clear. John Dick 78 (talk) 21:25, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello John Dick 78. There may still be time for you to respond to the complaint and promise to stop editing the article until you get a consensus in your favor on the talk page. If not, a block appears likely. EdJohnston (talk) 22:16, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
 * it seems the editor is not heeling to our warnings, I just had to revert him again right now. -- ❤ S ILENT R ESIDENT  ❤ 06:01, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 36 hours for edit warring, as you did at Greece. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.
