User talk:Rubiconrunner

October 2022
Hello, I'm Egsan Bacon. I noticed that you recently removed content from Mickey Gates without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Mickey Gates, 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. There are more than sufficient sources for this. Adakiko (talk) 21:50, 5 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Well, I do know Mr. Gates personally. I’ve seen all of the evidence, and been to all of the court hearings and he has not missed a year filing or paying taxes and that has been established. Unfortunately he is still going through the whole court process so there is not very many documents available at this time Rubiconrunner (talk) 21:51, 5 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Per KTHV and Arkansas Democrat, Gates pleaded no contest, agrees to pay $75k, and is on 6 years of probation. Further payments appear to be forthcoming. Adakiko (talk) 22:07, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Mickey Gates. 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. Adakiko (talk) 21:49, 5 October 2022 (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.
