June 2018
Your recent editing history at GNU Privacy Guard shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Bbb23 (talk) 11:39, 14 June 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure that reverting spam counts as edit-warring. Plus, I did contact the user(s) whose edits I was reverting, numerous times, in an effort to get them to stop. (They did not reply.) And I did request and receive page protection; but the editor just registered an account and continued to make the same edits. That is one of the reasons I filed an SPI, so that they could be shown to be IPSOCKing, because otherwise the IP edits would have to be considered as coming from separate users, and hence would not be considered to break 3RR. But you declined the SPI. Had I not reverted Er22chi's edits, prompting them to revert my reversions, you might not have been in a position to report them at the edit-warring noticeboard. Fortunately, another editor has now (finally) blocked Er22chi, albeit only for 48 hours.
 * Anyhow, if you have a concrete suggestion about how I could have handled this better, and without being slapped with the template above, I would welcome it. If not, then please could you withdraw that template? Thanks, Zazpot (talk) 14:17, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm sympathetic, but the kind of edits you were reverting are not exempt from edit-warring in my view. I would have stopped at two reverts and dealt with the user in some other fashion. I gave you the warning because I wanted you to stop. I gave them the warning as well, they didn't stop, they got blocked. I would have blocked them myself, but because I had also reverted, I was WP:INVOLVED and couldn't. If after the block expires, the user reinstates the material, I would immediately report them to WP:AN3 - it's not necessary to wait until they breach 3RR again.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:29, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
 * thanks for your reply. You say, "I would have stopped at two reverts and dealt with the user in some other fashion." What would that other fashion be? This is a serious question. I want to keep fighting vandalism and spam on Wikipedia, but being accused of edit-warring for doing so leaves me feeling that this is a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation. Zazpot (talk) 15:59, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
 * There are many instances where resolving a problem like this one is not easy. All experienced editors have dealt with it. It may be frustrating, but you simply can't edit-war regardless. In this case, you should try to work it out directly with the editor. If they don't respond or it fails, take them to ANI, partly for the spam and partly for the lack of cooperation by the other editor.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:39, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
 * as I already stated, I did not "edit war regardless"; IMO, I did not edit-war at all, merely reverted obvious spam. As I also already stated, I did "try to work it out directly with the editor". So, neither of those two pieces of advice help me to learn, nor do they answer the question that I asked you.
 * You say that I could have taken the issue to ANI... Well, OK, maybe next time I encounter something like this I will do that, as you say, after two reverts. But I suspect that I might not be taken seriously on so little evidence. SPI seemed like a better first port of call, because the IP socking looked obvious and a checkuser could have confirmed it: this would have given me solid evidence to bring to ANI afterwards if necessary. But as I say, you dismissed my SPI request.
 * In a nutshell, I do feel you rather shot the messenger here, by slapping me with that template. For the reasons I gave above, the template seems inappropriate here, and moreover it feels deeply unappreciative given the effort I put into addressing that spammer. I would remain grateful if you would withdraw it. Zazpot (talk) 20:55, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

A page you started (Foldering) has been reviewed!
Thanks for creating Foldering, Zazpot!

Wikipedia editor Nick Moyes just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

"Please fix the references. Bare urls aren't desirable in new articles as they are prone to link rot. As this is a very new term, I'm sure you'd agree this is worthy of addressing. Expand it a bit more and it could make a good WP:DYK."

To reply, leave a comment on Nick Moyes's talk page.

 * see User:Zazpot. Thanks, Zazpot (talk) 21:03, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, I regard that rationale simply as lazy, sloppy and somewhat arrogant on your part. You clearly expect others to trot along behind you, tidying up after you because you can't be bothered to do it yourself. No, I'm sorry, despite the fact that some other user may well sort out the weaknesses in your edits, that's a poor attitude in my book from an experienced editor, and I hope you will see sense and have more pride in the pages you create in future. Thanks, Nick Moyes (talk) 22:10, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
 * here is an earlier formulation of my rationale. Perhaps you will find it more satisfying. It, too, is a reasoned argument. Casting aspersions ("lazy", "sloppy", "somewhat arrogant") is not, and in my book is much more worthy of being called "a poor attitude ... from an experienced editor". If you still disagree, then let's just leave it here. Regards, Zazpot (talk) 22:54, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I think we'll just leave it there. Regards, Nick Moyes (talk) 23:07, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
