January 2021

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Simon Dolan. 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 on that page. 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.

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

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.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. -- ferret (talk) 15:42, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your thread has been archived

Hi Itcontractor! The thread you created at the Wikipedia:Teahouse, How do we get to a consensus when another user keeps undoing my changes?, has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days (usually at least two days, and sometimes four or more). You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to create a new thread.

The archival was done by Lowercase sigmabot III, and this notification was delivered by Muninnbot, both automated accounts. You can opt out of future notifications by placing {{bots|deny=Muninnbot}} here on your user talk page. Muninnbot (talk) 19:02, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Talk pages

Hi Itcontractor, thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. When you add to a talk page, such as Talk:Simon_Dolan, please could you sign your contributions by entering four tildes ~~~~ at the end? It'll automatically insert your name and the time of the edit. Without it, it can be very hard to follow the conversation. Best wishes Guffydrawers (talk) 14:55, 10 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tip. Will do my best, and have updated missing sigs in the Dolan Talk Page. Still finding my feet!Itcontractor (talk) 15:07, 10 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

May 2021

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Simon Dolan, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your 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. See WP:BRD. When your edit has been challenged by being undone, the edit is to be discussed on the talk page, and consensus will decide whether it will be included. "Discussion" does not mean that you drop a reason on the talk page and immediately restore your edit without any other input. Meters (talk) 09:01, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Simon Dolan. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. No, waiting a while and then unilaterally declaring on the talk page that it is notable and should go in is not acceptable. Stop trying to push this onto the page. Meters (talk) 02:02, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
