User talk:GeSm99

Hello, I'm That Coptic Guy. I noticed that you recently removed content from David Jones (writer) without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. — That Coptic Guy (let's talk?) 20:15, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm sorry I hadn't give a description on why I deleted some information. The reason i had deleted it was because I had read the article linked to his allegations and nothing was proved and the man hadn't done anything remotely racist so I thought it would benefit him to delete it off his Wikipedia.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to David Jones (writer), without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. If you only meant to make a test edit, please use your sandbox for that. Thank you. — That Coptic Guy (let's talk?) 20:22, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

Hi GeSm99! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of David Jones (writer) several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:David Jones (writer), please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. RolandR (talk) 20:40, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

hello, I do understand that and I have spoken about the edit to people and they have understood which is why I keep changing it back. GeSm99 (talk) 20:42, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
