Hello, and
welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly
reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at
9Rush. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "
edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the
normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, 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 lose their editing privileges. 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. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you. -- John B123 ( talk) 23:25, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
Removing existing information and making an existing consistent set of pages inconsistent is destructive to the whole concept of this site. If you are going to condone such stupidity, you don't need to threaten to revoke editing privileges. Why would anyone waste their time contributing when someone might come along and delete that useful contribution later? -- Kremmen ( talk) 04:01, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
