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.

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Martin Kulldorff. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. M.Bitton (talk) 09:59, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

 You have been blocked from editing from certain pages (Martin Kulldorff) for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. 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 at the bottom of your talk page:.

 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text at the bottom of your talk page:.

 * This is lame. Are you referring to my statement about @Bbb23 showing disgraceful behaviour? This admin blocked a user indefinitely for no valid reason and then tries to hide that fact by not telling the user why he's blocked, like he's obliged to, and keeping him blocked. If a person shows this type of behaviour, a personal attack on his behaviour is completely warranted, and you are in the wrong protecting him.
 * I see now that he claims this: "About a month later I indeffed Michael for continuing to edit-war at the same article." Fact is, Michael did no such thing. He was simply trying to reach consensus on the talk page and got reported by user Bon courage, because that user ran out of arguments. I react to injustice when I see it, and this is clearly a case of injustice and should serve as a warning for any user of good faith who wants to start contributing to Wikipedia. It's clear to me that Wikipedia has fallen prey to a group of people who seem to have no interest in keeping Wikipedia independent, neutral AND trustworthy.
 * I was willing to help fix Wikipedia, as I've seen many blatant errors in articles that fall within my area of expertise, but if this is the way admins react to criticism and protect editors that come complaining that a user wants to fix a page, based on facts, where that fix goes against their personal beliefs, I will simply explain to people that Wikipedia is not a reliable source for any information that has any political sensitivity and advise them to not donate to a project that actively spreads misinformation and is preventing subject matter experts of repairing these errors.
