A few days ago, I reverted an edit on List of conflicts involving the United Kingdom related to the Kandyan Wars---another user had changed it to say that the British had lost the war, when, in fact, there were maybe 3 wars of that name, and in none of them did the British lose (at least one may have been inconclusive). I didn't leave an edit summary---mea culpa. He or she reverted it back, claiming to have included sources on the Talk Page (I checked---they cited the Wikipedia page, which I believe runs afoul of WP:REFLOOP) and then reported me to the admins, under the, frankly, offensive thread title of "Paris1127 twists the History of various countries". Didn't even notify me that I'd been reported. Nothing like this has ever happened to me in the past ~decade I've been editing Wikipedia. I don't know what to do about any of this... It bothers me immensely. Paris1127 ( talk) 07:57, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

After his report to the admins was ruled to be without merit, the user who reported me kept trying to make his somewhat drastic change to List of conflicts involving the United Kingdom. I reverted at least twice and in the edit summary told him to discuss it to the talk page and let a consensus be made. He reverted me twice, and a third user who reverted him. The third user warned him about breaking the 3 revert rule. Now I suddenly find myself being accused of starting an edit war! And once again, I received no notice of this (he was specifically warned about this in the previous admin report)! This is unprecedented for me. I was most assuredly not trying to start an edit war, and I have attempted to reason with this user via the article's talk page and edit summaries. My reverts were made in good faith. I'm honestly unsure how to proceed. Paris1127 ( talk) 18:11, 30 May 2017 (UTC)
