 * Hi Schminnte.
 * Could you please give a valid reason for calling the The Platform anti-vaccinationist as on many occasions they have debunked the anti vax movement. Could you also justify calling The Platform 'right-wing' when according to a Curia Market Research April Public Poll (n=1000): 'The Platform had the highest neutral score with 48% of respondents rating them as such.' You also said The Platform gave priority to white female talkback callers. This is wrong, he gave priority to all female talkback callers not just pākehā ones. My contributions to The Platform (radio station) have been constructive as I have been correcting false information. You seem to want to discredit The Platform by stating false information. In future please only state the truth and don't write misinformation. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox.
 * thanks

Hello, I'm Adakiko. I noticed that in this edit to The Platform (radio station), you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 02:34, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

Edit warring notice
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on The Platform (radio station). This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although 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. Adakiko (talk) 09:51, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
 * 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.
 * Hi McGregorNZ, I think that it is best that we discuss this disagreement regarding The Platform's editorial standpoint stance on vaccines at Talk:The Platform (radio station). Edit warring is not a good way to establish yourself on Wikipedia. I have lodged a protection request at Requests for page protection/Increase, which means that an Administrator might temporarily lock the page to editing. Please calm down and take the opportunity to talk through these differences with us. Thanks and hope to hear from you. Andykatib 11:34, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 11:37, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

 You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for edit warring, as you did at The Platform (radio station). 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 review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page:.
