Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Siege of Jerusalem (1187), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Kurdish, Sibylla and Henry II.

Hello, I'm TopGun. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Muhammad bin Qasim, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

December 2014

You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Animal sacrifice in Hinduism. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Misplaced Pages this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, 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 be blocked from editing. 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. While edit warring on Misplaced Pages is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block.

Edit on Polygamy

While I neither like nor dislike your resent edits on the page Polygamy, I though you might want to read Help:Edit summary. All but the first of you 19 edits] do not uses the Edit summary to describe your actions. All it says is "Mobile app edit, Mobile edit" It makes other edits.

It is good practice to fill in the Edit summary field as this helps others to understand the intention of your edit. Additionally, when editors fail to use the edit summary field, it catches the attention of other editors. Usually it mean that someone will come along an undo your work.--- ARTEST4ECHO 20:29, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

I patrolled your page. I went through the enormously-backlogged list of newly-created pages and confirmed that your page was okay: not spam, not an attack page, not a copyright violation, not any of the other reasons for which I would delete someone's page without asking. Then I clicked "patrolled" to remove it from the list of "pages that have not yet been patrolled", and moved on to the next entry. That's all. DS (talk) 12:32, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

John Francis R. Tolkien

Hello KahnJohn27. An IP editor has just undone some material that you added to John Tolkien's section at Tolkien family. Your original addition was here on 4 March. Per the discussion at Talk:Tolkien family#Protected the mentions of Christopher Carrie should probably stay out of the article. Its inclusion might cause legal trouble, and does not form part of the notability of these family members for purposes of coverage on Misplaced Pages. See also Misplaced Pages:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard/Archive93#Tolkien family. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 21:39, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at ] 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 get 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.
Your addition is not inherently notable and violates WP:NPOV as an inaccurate and one sided account which is also not notable to the article. There is long standing consensus on the talk page which I suggest you read. isfutile:P (talk) 09:22, 4 April 2015 (UTC)

Your edit at Temple Mount

I am concerned about your edit here. You introduced as a source the book of Meron Benvenisti with page numbers 15 and 33. However, that book does not appear to contain any of the information you cite to it. I checked both the google version that you linked to, and also a hard copy. Page 15 is about Saladin, and page 33 is about 1967. The origin of the al-Aqsa Mosque and Caliph Omar are mentioned on page 76, but as far as I can tell neither Sophronius nor Arculf are mentioned in the book at all. Am I mistaken? Zero 04:54, 5 April 2015 (UTC)

@Zero0000: I actually lifted my information directly from Siege of Jerusalem (637). On it the page numbers 15 and 33 are used as sources for origin of Al-Aqsa mosque. Since I didn't check out the source, I assumed the source and the information about Umar cleaning the Temple Mount was was correct since nobody had contested tge source and information on the article. KahnJohn27 (talk) 18:32, 5 April 2015 (UTC)

The references to pages 15 and 33 on Siege of Jerusalem (637) are to two different books, neither of them Benvenisti's book. Somehow you are not reading correctly. Zero 01:30, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

@Zero0000: Oh sorry I didn't read them properly. I've entered them correctly in the article now. KahnJohn27 (talk) 10:03, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Now you have deleted a large chunk of new text that is perfectly well cited. I'm wondering if you should be editing, as so far you have just made trouble. Zero 10:34, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

@Zero0000: Excuse me. I have made a lot of contribution to Misplaced Pages articles and you're just ignoring it like I've done nothing in my time here. My edits on Temple Mount were correct especially seeing how some of your information was inaccurate and the source you were using is providing inaccurate information. For example Ka'ab, the Jewish convert to Islam never warned Umar about building a mosque on Temple Mount. In version of the story of Umar and the Temple Mount about Ka'b, it was Ka'ab himself who showed Umar the Temple Mount not Sophronius. So your information about Ka'b and Umar is incorrect. KahnJohn27 (talk) 11:01, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

It wasn't wrong but it was unclear; thank you for noticing that. Zero 12:42, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Please please stop completely overwriting edits when you have an edit conflict

I've noted this in your edits on several articles. When you have an edit conflict, PLEASE take the time to review what the conflict was and merge your changes in correctly. You keep removing content unrelated to the change you are making because of this. -- ferret (talk) 12:31, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

Please also take a breathe and make an effort to proof read and spell check your edits. You are still causing edit conflicts that result in edits being undone unnecessarily. -- ferret (talk) 13:41, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

@Ferret: It actually isn't my fault. I'm working on the mobile app for Misplaced Pages and it automatically overwrites another person's edit when there is an edit conflict and it never even notifies me whether or not there is an edit conflict. I'm really sorry but it's not my fault in actual, it's the fault of the Misplaced Pages app. KahnJohn27 (talk) 21:08, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

If you're unable to edit Misplaced Pages without removing others' contributions, you should either make no edits at all or find a device that works correctly. One option is to use the mobile app only for reading, and do your edits when you have a better computer. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 21:14, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

@EdJohnston: The app has the same issue on all devices. Also I don't have a computer and neither I have any money to buy one. I can't stop editing just because the app automatically overwrites another person's edits without even any notice. KahnJohn27 (talk) 21:20, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

After you have saved the (possibly faulty) contribution you have the option of doing a diff. You can then check whether your contribution has removed anything that was there before. It's within your power to correct that, if it happens. I myself use the mobile interface with great trepidation. EdJohnston (talk) 21:25, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

@EdJohnston: The feature of checking whether your contribution has removed anything that was there before isn't available on the Misplaced Pages mobile app. The app only lists the edit hostory of the article along with how many bytes have been changed in an edit but it never shows what changes have been made in an edit and what has been removed or added. KahnJohn27 (talk) 21:32, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

It's really irrelevant, you are constantly causing editors to have to repeat their edits or undo you repeatedly because of this. I recommend you consider abandoning the mobile app, and attempt to use the site through your device's browser instead. -- ferret (talk) 01:50, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

@Ferret: How is it irrelevant? The reason I use the apo instead of the browser is because it starts crashing after a few minutes on even a website like Google. On the app however I am able to get a stable platform to edit. Should I stop editing altogether even though it isn't any of my fault? KahnJohn27 (talk) 02:51, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

If you have no choice but to use the app, I would recommend that you excuse yourself from high traffic articles while other editors are also working on them to avoid conflicts. -- ferret (talk) 11:54, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

@Ferret: Sorry but that is highly impractical. Also in actual you and The1337gamer were the only editors except that frequently edited the article and they were only a few other editors so I won't call Fallout Shelter as a high-traffic article. Also seeing as to how I added majority of detail to the Fallout Shelter article, it might derive from useful information. I'll try to keep my edits minimal so I don't overwrite any edits but Fallout Shelter wasn't even a high-traffic article and you mostly made minor edits to it. KahnJohn27 (talk) 13:21, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

Halo: The Master Chief Collection

Can you please pay attention and stop blindly reverting my edits? The first paragraph of post-release covers the ODST release. You're re-adding almost the exact same text again to the end of post-release. --The1337gamer (talk) 14:50, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

@The1337gamer: It seems that the paragraph has been added just now. I don't remember it being there before. Anyway thanks. Sorry if I didn't notice it earlier. KahnJohn27 (talk) 18:26, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

It was there before, it's been there for over a month. That's why I undid your edit when you first added that information and said in the edit summary "repetition". I then moved the sentence about buying ODST to the end of that paragraph and you continued reverting me. --The1337gamer (talk) 18:32, 2 July 2015 (UTC)

@The1337gamer: I'm sorry I didn't notice it earlier. Earlier when you said "repetition" I thought you were referring to the lead section of the article. It was just a simple misunderstanding. I'm really sorry. KahnJohn27 (talk) 11:00, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
