Take your disagreement to the article talk page. Do not try to discuss by using edit summaries and reverts. ~ GB fan 13:33, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- Fair enough... but why protecting the page on the version modified without discussion, even though French editors warned multiples times about activism targeting François Asselineau's pages accross wikimedia projects? Gyrostat (talk) 14:35, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'd at least hope that the version of the article be reverted to pre-edit war condition. Asselineau is clearly a conspiracy theorist, as justified by sources (lede only needs to reflect content of the article body); that isn't in serious dispute. Mélencron (talk) 14:57, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- I took admin action without making any determination which version is "correct", but everyone should realize that when a page is protected as the result of an edit war it is always on the The Wrong Version. ~ GB fan 15:02, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- I do understand you took admin action without looking for further details, but to be honest I wish you did. This page and its other languages versions are known for being targeted by political activism, and the edits by Mikiwafia are indeed activism, according to the duck test. Gyrostat (talk) 15:13, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- If there had been some kind of talk page discussion rather than the back and forth reverting I might have done things differently. With no one talking and there wasn't a BLP violation in either version, it is locked where it is at when I do it. Now it is a consensus building exercise. ~ GB fan 15:23, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

{{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. ~ GB fan 22:06, 25 March 2017 (UTC)
- Come on! I took the time to explain the current issue on the talk page! I even wrote a few sentences for sysops so that you can have some context. The edits by Mikiwafia are clearly against the consensus of the talk-page, I did nothing but revert to the version we agreed on the talk page ("His views have also been described by many observers as conspiracy theories", consensus with Oliv0 and Mezigue as well as Mélencron up here, only Mikiwafia disagreed). My last edit was a revert of the deletion of a source from a French national public television, which is an acceptable source (sure, YouTube hosted, but produced by France 2... an Asselineau militant trying to get rid of a France 2 ref, that would sound ironic for any French editor!). Last time I checked, ref deletion was considered vandalism. I take note of my blocking this evening, I will not bother asking for an undeletion for a few hours, that would wastes everyone's time. Obviously, I will ask for a page protection to prevent further disorganisation by an editor who commited cross-wiki disruption. Gyrostat (talk) 17:39, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
- I do not see consensus in the section started when I protected the page. The other editors that commented didn't like the formulation of the sentence but no one said the concept was wrong. Only Mikiwafia commented on the talk page about the new dispute. They gave a policy based reason for deleting it. That is by definition not vandalism. Any more reverts by either one of you will result in a longer block, not page protection. If the two of you can not reach a consensus you can try dispute resolution. ~ GB fan 18:40, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

why was this reverted
[edit]Revert by User:Gyrostat please tell what fair use policy or scope was broken. i just linked two wikipedia pages Chinakpradhan (talk) 17:18, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- First of all, my bad: I saw a poorly-displayed image underneath, and assumed it was this image. I was wrong, it was the portal poorly-displayed (fixed it). But the commonality between the Cupola and the Inspiration4 mission seems a little thin to have a link imo. Gyrostat (talk) 19:23, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
