Hello, I'm WikiMasterGhibif. I noticed that you recently removed content from 1999 24 Hours of Le Mans without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Yes, you made a mistake. What I did was correct; your revert restored a falsehood to the article. Sirenofthesea (talk) 00:18, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Smile (Doctor Who) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
If you are the IP that edited as well, then you have violated WP:3RR. -- Alex^TW 01:11, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you do not recognize that you have violated the policy of WP:3RR, I will be required to report you for edit-warring. -- Alex^TW 05:44, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. -- Alex^TW 06:33, 6 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring at Smile (Doctor Who)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 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 ~~~~}}.

The full report is at the edit warring noticeboard. Most people who get into edit wars are convinced they are right. This does not give you permission to continue reverting indefinitely. See WP:Dispute resolution for the options to follow. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk)

What disgusting people. What pathetic behaviour you encourage. Sirenofthesea (talk) 01:41, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's only for 24 hours - do you see how you violated WP:3RR? I'm trying to help you understand how this came to pass. -- Alex^TW 02:13, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nope. You're trying to be as obnoxious as possible about an edit so minor it was trivial. Hope you enjoyed it, little boy. Sirenofthesea (talk) 06:01, 7 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
