You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on CeCe Winans; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 01:36, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 01:37, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

The location of the discussion is "Gospel singer Yolanda Adams versus CeCe Winans". I would link directly to it, but the board has a very rapid turnover and it may be gone shortly.

As for the contested content. If you believe the subject has lower international sales than that provided by the two sources, rather than changing the number, provide your reference to support the sales figures you believe are supported. Walter Görlitz (talk) 02:39, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

For those just joining us, Texas anon claims ‎It states on Wikipedia that Yolanda Adams has sold 10 million albums. She has sold 4.5 million albums worldwide yet https://www.bet.com/music/2019/11/18/soul-train-awards-yolanda-adams-lady-of-soul-interview.html clearly states "with nearly 10 million records sold worldwide". Now I think I understand the confusion because the anon added multiple copies of a CeCe Winans press release to Talk:CeCe Winans the most accessible and complete is at https://www.pbs.org/national-memorial-day-concert/performer/cece-winans/ which states, "she's sold in excess of 5 million albums in the U.S." Now if you're paying attention the claim for Adams is worldwide while the claim for Winans is only within the United States. Without proof, therefore, and against the source that was supplied, our anon has been indicating that the former's sales are lower without taking into consideration the area for the sales.
