In
Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts quarrels or upsets people on the
Internet to distract and sow discord
by posting
inflammatory and
digressive,

extraneous, or
off-topic messages in an
online community (such as a
newsgroup,
forum,

intent of provoking readers into displaying
emotional responses.

A bargaining impasse occurs when the two sides negotiating an agreement are unable to reach an agreement and become deadlocked. The word may also refer to any situation in which no progress can be made. Impasses provide opportunities for problem solving to provide an insight that leads to progress. Some theorists contend that impasses are used by negotiating parties in situations of imperfect information as a method of signalling to the other side the seriousness of their position. Impasse provides a credible signal that a party’s position is genuine and not merely an ambit claim. Additionally, an impasse may arise if parties suffer from self-serving bias. Most disputes arise in situations where facts are able to be interpreted in multiple ways, and if parties interpret the facts to their own benefit they may be unable to accept the opposing party’s claim as reasonable. They may believe the other side is either bluffing or acting unfairly and deserves to be punished.
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.
Please do not feed trolls ...

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date. You have shown interest in living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Thank you for trying to keep Wikipedia free of vandalism. However, one or more edits you labeled as vandalism are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can discourage editors. Please see what is not vandalism for more information on what is and is not considered vandalism. Thank you. DrKay ( talk) 16:55, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi Sampajanna! Thought I'd give some broader context because I saw your edit summary The text or punctuation of a direct quote is normally not altered
and though it's something I see sometimes, it's very far from what MOS actually says.
For a quotation within a quotation, use single quotes. That's what applies in this case. The reason is because syntactically in the English language, an open quote,
", closes as soon as the next time the same character appears,
"(one nuance at the end). So
"From the very first headline about her being "(almost) straight outta Compton" and having "exotic" DNA, the racist treatment of Meghan has been impossible to ignore"actually "quotes" the following passages: (1)
From the very first headline about her being; (2)
exotic; (3) typographical error with the last quote not being matched to anything. Obviously undesirable. (The one nuance is that this is evaluated "from the inside-out", so that nested quotes like "He said, 'I was listening to a speech and they said, "Punctuation is important."'" parse correctly.)
Just thought I'd let you know in future, as the actual MOS, A quotation is not a
facsimile and, in most cases, it is not a requirement that the original formatting be preserved
(
MOS:CONFORM), is not always applied correctly. Let me know if you have any questions! —
