ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

June 2016

Your recent editing history at Madonna 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 article's 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—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—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 15:39, 29 June 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Krimuk90. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Julianne Moore without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Misplaced Pages 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 the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please don't remove well-cited information from FA-quality articles without discussing them first. Cheers! Krimuk|90 (talk) 18:05, 29 June 2016 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to remove Articles for deletion notices or comments from articles and Articles for deletion pages, you may be blocked from editing. GSMR (talk) 16:33, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

Your edit summaries

Please tone down your edit summaries. There's no need to display such hostility towards other editors editing in good faith. --NeilN 14:04, 8 August 2016 (UTC)

Kanye West

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Kanye West.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Misplaced Pages's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Misplaced Pages's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Misplaced Pages, you may be blocked from editing. GentleCollapse16 (talk) 15:32, 8 August 2016 (UTC)

You do realize that, despite your strong and obnoxious opinion that xyz information should be removed from the Kanye West page, you don't actually own Misplaced Pages, and, it being a collaborative enterprise, one requires consensus from a majority of editors and basic rationality to back the removal of sourced (and blatantly relevant) content, right? GentleCollapse16 (talk) 17:13, 8 August 2016 (UTC)

Edit war

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Kanye West. 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 Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:

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.

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. Tpdwkouaa (talk) 16:44, 8 August 2016 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring. The thread is Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Ajax1995 reported by User:Dr.K. (Result: ). Thank you. Dr. K. 16:44, 8 August 2016 (UTC)

Please do read this. Flyer22 has made some good points.

• WP:BLP applies everywhere, including edit summaries
• Removals of content should be made judiciously, keeping an eye on how surrounding text is affected
• Continuing to edit war across articles is going to draw the attention of admins, sooner than later, resulting in a block for you

Some articles need to be trimmed, there's no doubt about that, but often these trims need to be made working together with other editors rather than unilaterally. --NeilN 02:56, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
