Oath Keepers
You really need to discuss this on the articl talk page. Doug Weller (talk) 19:04, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

I am new to editing here, but have been trying to correct some defamatory and inaccurate content, but my edits keep getting reverted. I don't know if Doug Weller is doing this, or another user, but I would appreciate help in establishing the accuracy and quality of this article.

1)With respect to this statement:

"Mosques On the 10th of October, 2015, the group organised protests at mosques throughout the U.S.[34] The event was described by some news outlets as Islamophobic.[35]"

This statement is incorrect, as Oath Keepers had nothing to do with the mosque protests. The citation to this statement refers to an article by David Francis. When Francis was notified of his error, he removed mention of Oath Keepers from his article. You can go to the link and see for yourself. Oath Keepers have also now issued a statement on their website stating no involvement in the protests.

2)Regarding this statement:

"Oath Keepers have attended protests against the US Federal Government, their members armed with firearms.[19]"

This statement references an article which refers to the Pacific Northwest Mine dispute, which is described in greater detail in a later part of the article. The most obvious interpretation of the statement is that Oath Keepers showed up armed to protest the US Federal Government. In fact, the Oath Keepers were hired as volunteer security by the miners, who were having a dispute with the Federal Government. The statement therefore misleads more than it reveals, and it adds no substance to the subject of the mine disputes which is already addressed in greater detail.

 * This sort of discussion is great, but more editors are going to see it if you use the article talk page at Talk:Oath Keepers. Please allow me to repeat the welcome at the start of the section I posted below; Wikipedia can be a challenge to newcomers but I hope you choose to stick around. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions, particularly about the dispute you are current in at the Oath Keepers article. To answer your question above, no it does not look like Doug was one of the editors that contested your edits. You can check for yourself by looking at the article history page, here.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Oath Keepers. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.
