Thank you for the links! I've read a lot of those you mentioned and a handful are still only bookmarked, but thank you nevertheless. The edits not conforming to the verifiability policy is not necessarily accurate. More info on Talk:Dungeons & Dragons HnZ88 (talk) 17:15, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

Your recent bold edit has been reverted. Per the bold, revert, discuss cycle, after a bold edit is reverted, the status quo should remain while a discussion is started instead of edit-warring, and it should be resolved before reinstating the edit, after a needed consensus is formed to keep it.

I was informed that one revert to a revert was acceptable, but that might have not been accurate. Thank you HnZ88 (talk) 17:15, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

As with everything, the answer is more complicated. One revert is usually fine, but it's one revert total rather than one revert per editor. So here you made your Bold edit, another editor Reverted you, and then you should have started a Discussion on the article Talk page if you felt strongly about it. After that initial revert, any more reverts—from you or anyone else—are considered edit warring. But you're new and didn't know that, plus you were given some poor or incomplete information, so don't sweat it!

Incidentally, there are cases where nobody can revert, particularly on contentious articles with a history of edit warring. This is basically to force editors to seek a consensus. There are also cases where editors might have infinite reverts, like when removing egregious unsourced negative content about living persons. But even in a situation like that, it's really always better to seek help than endlessly edit war.

Anyways, I'm glad everything ended well. If you have any questions at all, please let me know. Cheers! Woodroar (talk) 23:30, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
