Happy editing! SovalValtos (talk) 20:58, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi Pdpetra! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Hampshire 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. Mutt Lunker (talk) 00:21, 20 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks. My point us that Hampshire geographically is simply not in the South East of England. It is and has always been in Central Southern England and this page does not reflect that. Inclusion in the SE region is a political and administrative decision which is arbitrary and not geographically accurate. Pdpetra (talk) 18:02, 23 March 2024 (UTC)


 * My point is that, whatever your rationale, warring to implement your preferred text is not the way to go about matters. Make your points at the talk page of the article, wait until theres is a consensus and do not make your changes unless and until there is one. Persisting in a war is likely to get you blocked. Please take heed. Mutt Lunker (talk) 00:23, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Well that's an intelligent reply. Pdpetra (talk) 00:21, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Hampshire. 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. Mutt Lunker (talk) 21:29, 20 March 2024 (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.
