"hero" edits
Hi there, I noticed you've made a bunch of recent edits to emphasize that certain historic / legendary figures were "heroes." You're not wrong, but in some cases the wording might be subjective or inaccurate or unnecessary. That said, this edit to Abhimanyu was well done -- looks like the end of that sentence had been mangled by other folks and you fixed it nicely! Keep up the good work etc. RexSueciae (talk) 07:03, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi R.R. Blaze! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Rama 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. RegentsPark (comment) 22:53, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

"Culture hero"
Kindly stop inserting your personal opinions in Hinduism related articles, keeping in mind this is an encyclopedia rather than a blog. Chronikhiles (talk) 07:39, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm The Banner. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Brian Boru seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. The Banner talk 14:26, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Rama, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Julius Caesar, you may be blocked from editing. The Banner talk 14:32, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, 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, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by inserting commentary or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Ramesses II. The Banner talk 14:33, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

February 2024
Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Ramesses II. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. CodeTalker (talk) 00:34, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Most of your edits seem to consist of adding the word "hero" to a variety of articles. As far as I can see, you have never provided a source for these changes. You should only make such changes if you can cite a source that uses that language. Saying that someone is a "hero" based on your personal judgement is original research and is not permitted. Please refrain from making such edits unless you can provide a reliable source. CodeTalker (talk) 00:45, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

I have to ask, what's with the "hero" thing? The change you're advocating for at Charlemagne is fine, though I think it's a little unnecessary and complicates the sentence. At the end of the day it's not inaccurate in a section about his portrayal in legends. But it seems that your main activity is going around adding "hero" to articles about historical figures. Why? I see several others have noted this to you. In most cases it constitutes original research when not supported by a source. And I guarantee that you won't have academic reliable sources saying, in the authoritative tone you often add it, "X was a hero" or "X was a war hero". These statements are almost definitely not neutral.

I see that here at Julius Caesar, you've qualified it that Caesar is portrayed as a hero in the literary Matter of Rome. That's a good step toward better representation of sources. However, remember that the lead section is for summarizing what's already in the body of the article. So information should not only appear in the lead. Any addition also needs to consider due weight, or whether the prominence of a piece of information in an article reflects its prominence in reliable sources. Do biographies of Caesar give prominence to his presence in medieval legends?

It seems like you're interested in improving the coverage of historical figures - that's awesome! But I would have to say that going around inserting the word "hero" into articles isn't the way to do it. And again, I have to ask, why this seeming obsession with the word? I hope you take what I and other editors have written here into consideration in your future editing. Best, Seltaeb Eht (talk) 22:39, 11 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Fine. I will stop adding that word. R.R. Blaze (talk) 09:54, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Seeing your edits on Brian Boru, you clearly did not stop with doing that. The Banner  talk 19:24, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * To be fair, I add a citation to the last edit. Too bad no one likes it. R.R. Blaze (talk) 19:39, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * You mean the copy-and-paste from Battle of Clontarf? The Banner  talk</i> 20:55, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes. R.R. Blaze (talk) 22:00, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @The Banner This user's done it again at Rama. They're clearly just not listening at this point. <b style="color:Teal">Chronikhiles</b> <b style="color:Black">(talk)</b> 13:56, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Lone-078. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Ramesses II, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Lone-078 (talk) 15:27, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did at King Arthur, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. Lone-078 (talk) 10:28, 13 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Understood. R.R. Blaze (talk) 02:02, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Bhima, you may be blocked from editing. The Banner <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 14:09, 2 May 2024 (UTC)


 * The recent, 'legitimate' changes made to Bhima can be called vandalism, too. At least, keep the changes I made on the Hanuman section. Oh, and the 'hero' in each page was technically correct, but if that word really violates impartiality, then I guess there is no point in putting it. R.R. Blaze (talk) 21:10, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
 * Can I republish the changes that were erased? R.R. Blaze (talk) 04:44, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Bhima. Why do you try to designate everybody as a hero? The Banner  <i style="color:maroon">talk</i> 08:48, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Charlemagne, the folk hero
R.R. Blaze, please cite relevant and reliable sources on Charlemagne that designate him as a "folk hero", particularly with the weight of being important enough to be in the lead, and establish a consensus for inclusion. From my work on this article and other reading on Charlemagne, I don't believe I've come across this in any of the major scholarly or popular biographies on Charlemagne. You persistently try to add it to the page and are consistently reverted by myself and other editors. You persistently try to add it to other pages, and are reverted. This is a frequent, and really the only topic of your talk page. I'd implore again that you hear what I and other editors are saying, and use your obvious passion for improving articles on history in a more collaborative and constructive manner. I'd ask again also for you to review the relevant core content policies regarding original research, due weight, lead sections and presentation of a neutral point of view. While you're at it, please also review what constitutes a minor edit. Seltaeb Eht (talk) 18:43, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I'll be less diplomatic and more blunt. If you don't want to find some other way of improving the encylopedia other than randomly adding "folk hero" to many pages, then very soon you may find you are unable to edit the encylopedia at all. This has been going on for months, and it should stop now. FDW777 (talk) 17:18, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I've stopped making edits beyond mere corrections. R.R. Blaze (talk) 04:33, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
