Hello, I'm Iryna Harpy. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Vinica, Macedonia, but you didn't provide a reliable source.

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.

Your help desk question

You have responses.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 19:33, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

The three-revert rule

Your recent editing history at Macedonians (ethnic group) 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.

Balkan topics are covered by discretionary sanctions under WP:ARBMAC

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding the Balkans, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Disambiguation link notification for March 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Macedonians (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

March 2017

Your recent editing history at Republic of Macedonia 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.

Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  NeilN 17:32, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

Please stop making disruptive edits, as you did at Macedonians (ethnic group).

• 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. Constantine ✍ 18:21, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

This kind of edit – simply silently reinstating your previous edit without even an edit summary, after the previous editor gave you a clear and easy-to-understand reason why he had reverted it – is really unacceptable. No matter if you're right or wrong about this matter, you really, really need to learn to deal constructively with other editors, or you will very soon be blocked indefinitely. Please take this as a final warning. 18:54, 14 March 2017 (UTC)

Topic banned

As you were warned of discretionary sanctions here and have continued to make undiscussed edits like this I am imposing a temporary one year topic ban on all articles and pages related to Macedonia, broadly construed.

You should read Misplaced Pages:Banning_policy#Topic_ban so you know what this entails. Basically, do not post to any page related to Macedonia, including any ethnically related topic, and do not mention or refer to Macedonia anywhere. This ban can be appealed at the Administrators' Noticeboard, and will be logged at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration enforcement log/2017. --NeilN 04:50, 26 July 2016 (UTC)

Note that you need to start using article talk pages if your changes are reverted in any area. You have not done so once and continuing that practice will only lead to a lengthy block. --NeilN 17:42, 1 April 2017 (UTC)

April 2017

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Misplaced Pages, as you did at Ethnic group, you may be blocked from editing. Your edit makes no sense. European Americans are not defined as an ethnic group, and Belgians have two ethnic identities. Doug Weller talk 15:07, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  NeilN 15:16, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

Your next block for edit warring will likely be an indefinite one. --NeilN 15:18, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Misplaced Pages, as you did to Poles, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use the sandbox for that. Caution for removal of sourced content, and replacing it with data from a nonWP:RS website. - Tom | Thomas.W 17:00, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Misplaced Pages. Final warning for adding material sourced to a non-WP:RS website on a considerable number of articles, after having just returned from a block for similar edits. And we can add refspamming to that, plugging joshuatree.net all over the place. ( http://spam.joshuatree.net ) - Tom | Thomas.W 17:04, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

If you believe this block is unjustified, please read the guide to appealing blocks (specifically this section) before appealing. Place the following on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Please copy my appeal to the ] or ]. Your reason here OR place the reason below this template. ~~~~}}. If you intend to appeal on the arbitration enforcement noticeboard I suggest you use the arbitration enforcement appeals template on your talk page so it can be copied over easily. You may also appeal directly to me (by email), before or instead of appealing on your talk page. NeilN 17:32, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Reminder to administrators: In May 2014, ArbCom adopted the following procedure instructing administrators regarding Arbitration Enforcement blocks: "No administrator may modify a sanction placed by another administrator without: (1) the explicit prior affirmative consent of the enforcing administrator; or (2) prior affirmative agreement for the modification at (a) AE or (b) AN or (c) ARCA (see "Important notes" ). Administrators modifying sanctions out of process may at the discretion of the committee be desysopped."
