User talk:SteveRavic

Welcome!
Hello, SteveRavic, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Ivan Perišić, have removed content without an explanation. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles.

If you still have questions, there is a new contributors' help page, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia: I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! -- samtar talk or stalk 18:34, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Ivan Perišić, you may be blocked from editing. -- samtar talk or stalk 18:40, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Insulting?
Could you please explain why listing Ivan Perišić's birth place as the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia is "false / insulting / racist"? That is what the area was known as until 1992 -- samtar talk or stalk 18:42, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Perisic
He was born in Yugoslavia right? It was Yugoslavia at the time he was born. Now it's Croatia yes, but it wasn't when he was born. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.27.125.216 (talk) 19:55, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Names used as of time.
Someone who was born in the Russian Empire in a city which is now in Estonia would still be identified as being born in that city in the Russian Empire. For Split prior to the breakup of Yugoslavia, Split, SR Croatia, Yugoslavia may be acceptable. (Similar to San Francisco, California, USA)Naraht (talk) 20:23, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Ivan Perišić. 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. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; 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. Qed237&#160;(talk) 21:54, 21 June 2016 (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.
