Hi JCDV! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Presidency of Barack Obama 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:Presidency of Barack Obama, 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. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:12, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Muboshgu. The erasure of this balancing note I have inserted has been erased a few times by the same user, without explanation or with invalid reasons. I have explained that everytime.

As you know of course very well, editing, especially erasure of an edit, is to be explained. But I think the things got better recently. Be well, JCDV (talk) 18:41, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is not how Wikipedia works. If you want to add something that others object to, for any reason, the WP:ONUS is on you to get the WP:CONSENSUS to add it on the article's talk page, Talk:Presidency of Barack Obama. And the reason in this case is that your edit is not neutral. It uses WP:FPM, a source that is deprecated. I will now remove this edit of yours again. If you reinsert it without a consensus, I will block you. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:51, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:WPM: who decided that it was deprecated? Anyhow, the table of sources is clearly indicated as not obliging, per wikipedia regulations. Your attempt to erase this note by force is censorship, and basically you threatened me now.

Kindly note that this exchange is recorded for further action in the framework of a report on political bullying on wikipedia.

I'm sorry you abused your authority to bully a contributor for political ideology. The added text was verified and balanced, and was published in multiple sources. This is unacceptable in my eyes. Plesse note that I'm escalating this my way = I'm not going to spend time and energy to look for "consensus" in the way you pay the game. I'm sorry for you and we'll be in touch. Be well.

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring, as you did at Presidency of Barack Obama. 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 review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:05, 26 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
