Hello, I'm Bamnamu. I noticed that you recently removed content from Slavery in Korea 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.

 * Hey there, it's great to hear from you. It seems strange to hear from you that I removed content from the article under discussion without adequate explanation, because you are the one who seems to be in need to explaining yourself for reverting back the changes I have made. The reverts were not at all due to my mistakes. They will keep happening until the article seems to be reasonable up to the current state of affairs of the topic.

 * You removed:
 * The importance of slavery in Korea fluctuated over time.
 * The slave population declined to 1.5% by 1858.
 * Peterson cites this as "[a] proof that Korean history has been remarkably peaceful and stable until the 20th century". Bamnamu (talk) 16:46, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The only sources of reference you seem to adopt are two: Kim Bok Rae's single article and the newspaper Opinions page by Peterson. They do not at all represent a generally agreed opinion of the topic. Ssking21 (talk) 16:50, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
 * You cited Kim and Peterson too. Bamnamu (talk) 16:52, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I made sure that Peterson's "thoughts" were represented in a format that they were his opinion, unlike the presentation of yours where you made Peterson's argument seem like they are all agreed upon by researchers.
 * I cited Kim Bok Rae because I was revising based on the preexisting content, and I only cited the bits that seemed reasonable. Ssking21 (talk) 16:56, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Slavery in Korea shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

 * You are in the same risk, as well, remember that. Ssking21 (talk) 17:07, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Slavery in Korea, you may be blocked from editing. Bamnamu (talk) 17:03, 25 March 2023 (UTC)


 * You removed:
 * The importance of slavery in Korea fluctuated over time. Bamnamu (talk) 17:03, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Add only the contents you wish to put back, do not revise my edit as a whole by your old paragraphs and sentences. Also, again, *your* are the one who removed *my* content without any explanation at all. So why don't you show a change of behavior before pointing the mistake out that you are first prone to make?

OK, I see your point.
