December 2014

Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Black supremacy, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page.

while I agree it does not belong in the first sentence,mconsensus on the talk page, and other talk pages dealing with supremecy, was to include it. Please start a new discussion to obtain a new consensus.

My edit summary

It occurs to me that my edit summary may seem a bit pointy: "The RfC is not closed. stop changing this before it closes". The general "stop" sounds like it's just directed at you, but that was not my intention. It's more a response to the multiple changes by multiple people to the contentious part of the lead before the RfC has run its course. While obviously I don't disagree with what you changed it to (i.e. I prefer it to the current wording), I think it should stay as it was at the outset until which time a clear consensus forms (and/or the RfC is closed). --— Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 22:45, 5 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

March 2017

Hello, I'm Grayfell. I noticed that you removed topically-relevant content from White supremacy. However, Wikipedia is not censored to remove content that might be considered objectionable. Please do not remove or censor information that directly relates to the subject of the article. If the content in question involves images, you have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide images that you may find offensive. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Grayfell (talk) 04:40, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing about what I removed was necessary. Please don't revert edits that shouldn't be reverted. Deciduous Maple (talk) 04:54, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

3RR

Your recent editing history at White supremacy 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 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.

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.

You've violated WP:3RR after specifically having been warned. Self revert now and resolve on the talk page. Grayfell (talk) 05:33, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"resolve on the talk page" That's what I've been trying to do all along, m8. Deciduous Maple (talk) 05:35, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, that's not how it works. Reverting to your preferred version against multiple editors and long-standing consensus is edit warring. You've made 4 reverts, and that's too many. Grayfell (talk) 05:47, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Last warning about this. You know the rules about edits warring. You continued edit warring despite this warning in this edit EvergreenFir (talk) 07:22, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

March 2017

This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on others again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Grayfell (talk) 01:28, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

/pol/ thread

http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/115678459/personal-army (archive)

Hello, /pol/. I come seeking assistance arguing for the editing of the "White Supremacy" wikipedia article. The article begins with calling white supremacy a "racist ideology," which I think should be removed. If any of you have an autoconfirmed Wikipedia account, could you please help me edit it as described? Also, participating in the talk page would be helpful as well.

I am Deciduous Maple, for the record.

ANI notice

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. EvergreenFir (talk) 06:53, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

All right, you have a few choices here:

Find other articles unrelated to White supremacy to work on
Make the change you want to White supremacy only if you get clear consensus from experienced editors to do so
Be blocked indefinitely for disruptive editing
