Welcome
Hello OliverGervick and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your contributions, such as the ones to Kingdom of Prussia, do not conform to our policies.

Hi OliverGervick! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Kingdom of Prussia 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&#32;at, 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. Remsense 留  00:24, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Kingdom of Prussia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. ''The NGF didn't succeed Prussia, as Prussia was still a constituent state of the latter. The "succeeds" category here refers to post-WWI successor states of Prussia as part of the German Empire.'' Chaotıċ Enby   (t · c) 00:42, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Kingdom of Prussia. 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. ''Reverting to older version, we can talk about further changes on the talk page. Please do not use misleading edit summaries.''

 * 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.
