Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

Thanks for letting me know. I reverted 2 overtly biased changes by one user in an article. I was thinking that a slightly more objective view would be generally more useful to a larger percentage of users. Svein Are Karlsen (talk) 10:43, 7 September 2020 (UTC)


 * It's not quite clear to me, but it appears you don't like the NYTimes as a source, but I may have misread your edit. Doug Weller  talk 17:33, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
