Your recent edits to Danny Makkelie could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that making such threats on Wikipedia is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Please be sure to comment on content, not contributors, and where possible make specific suggestions for changes supported by reliable independent sources and focusing especially on verifiable errors of fact. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 10:34, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. 331dot (talk) 10:36, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. 331dot (talk) 11:47, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The material to which you object says "Makkelie was criticised for a decision", and then goes on to say "Makkelie's decision was backed by Roberto Rosetti, the chairman of the UEFA referees’ committee, who pointed out that the match VAR officials told Makkelie the penalty was 'correct'." Both of those statements are verifiably true, and have received a significant amount of coverage. For some reason yo seem to think that mentioning the criticism at all is some sort of grave attack on Makkelie, even in a context where that mention is immediately followed by a statement that the official body in question has rejected the criticism. Frankly, that makes no sense. If you cannot bear to see both sides of a disagreement mentioned, including the side which you personally disagree with, then you would be well advised not to read Wikipedia, because Wikipedia policy is that we do cover both sides of a dispute if it has received substantial coverage in published media, and that we do not restrict coverage to the side of the dispute which you, or I, or 100 other Wikipedia editors personally think is correct. Please don't try to make Wikipedia articles conform to your preferred point of view. JBW (talk) 21:14, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
