Welcome!

[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

[edit]

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions. 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.

Edit war noticeboard comments.

[edit]

Hello. You can post here, on this talk page, and I will see it.

You copy/pasted my comments to the edit war noticeboard, but this is not appropriate, because it appeared that I posted it. Obviously you should not add someone else's signature to a comment. I have removed that post.

Good practice on Wikipedia is the Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle. This means that since you were reverted, you should discuss the issue. Please start a discussion on the article's talk page: Talk:Death of Latasha Harlins. Depending on your computer, you can click "new section" at the top. From there, we can discuss how to proceed. Thank you. Grayfell (talk) 21:57, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You have now violated WP:3RR, which is the thing you attempted to report me for doing. I will start a discussion on the article's talk page. Please revert your own edit and join me there. Otherwise, I will have to report you for edit warring. Grayfell (talk) 22:06, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
