Edit warring at Augusto Pinochet
Hi Nachowski1809! 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. Generalrelative (talk) 23:41, 27 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi! I understand! I only did it because after hours of work someone who has a record of disrupting editing to suit his preferences (and was even blocked for 72 hours) accused my post of being "politically motivated" and reverted it, when the only thing I did was to expand what was already there (economic data, laws and dates) and connect loose ideas, my sources were the Congress Library, mainstream media and reputable economists, only numbers.

 * It makes sense that you would feel frustrated. I've experienced that feeling many times! It's actually a very common occurrence here, so you'll need to get used to it if you want to make substantive changes to major articles where a lot of people are watching. When your edits are reverted, the best thing to do to is usually to start a new thread on the article's talk page. In this case, that's Talk:Augusto Pinochet. This process is discussed in the essay "Bold, Revert, Discuss". I hope that's helpful, and welcome to Wikipedia! Generalrelative (talk) 00:08, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Sadly I saw your message after posting on Talk:Augusto Pinochet! haha anyway I hope we can reach a consensus or something Nachowski1809 (talk) 00:10, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * No worries! One more thing: now that you're on the article talk page you will need to observe our Take Page Guidelines, which includes the rule that on article talk pages you must only comment on content, not on other editors. I suggest editing your comment before anyone responds in order to remove the comment about Bedivere. Once someone else responds you will instead need to strike the remarks like this . It really is very important to stick to content only on article talk pages! Cheers, Generalrelative (talk) 00:20, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Also! You will need to be aware of our policy "Assume Good Faith", which is crucial to our functioning as a community. Even if you strongly suspect someone is acting in bad faith, you must not accuse them of that without strong evidence, and never on an article talk page. Please understand that editing Wikipedia has a steep learning curve, which you are now encountering. I am definitely not trying to give you a hard time. These are just things you will need to be aware of in order to work effectively here. Generalrelative (talk) 00:26, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oh sorry! I didn't know about it I'm still new to this, thank you very much! I already edited it.
 * Anyway, thank you Nachowski1809 (talk) 00:26, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Great! Generalrelative (talk) 00:28, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * "someone who has a record of disrupting editing" - that is not something really civil or even nice. I would like you to apologize for that gratuitous personal attack. I have exposed my points with all due respect. You haven't. Bedivere (talk) 02:03, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * by the way, thanks @Generalrelative for explaining Nachowski1809 how things work like over here. Hopefully they've learned the lesson. Bedivere (talk) 02:06, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * I do apologise but it was not my best day and we all have difficult days were our reactions are geatly altered by small things, I am not normally like that, and to be fair due to some past incidents I thought you were just trolling, I sincerely hope we can leave this incident and misunderstanding behind, as they say sometimes the best friendships begin with a fight!

 * No hard feelings @Nachowski1809. Actually, if you check other people's talk page there's a very high chance you will find these warnings and that does not mean the user is essentially problematic (well, sometimes they are lol). Bedivere (talk) 00:30, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
