User talk:Word Is Born

March 2018

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Ta-Nehisi Coates. 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 be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 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 lead to a block. Thank you. — MShabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 17:04, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In light of the fact that you've been edit-warring all day, your last edit to the article probably isn't a very good idea. It may be seen as a fourth revert, and hence a violation of the three-revert rule. I would recommend that you self-revert (undo your last edit) and wait until tomorrow. — MShabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 20:26, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Based on the talk page, I think theres an agreement that the information belongs in the article. Word Is Born (talk) 21:02, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend that you re-read WP:3RR. There's no exemption for "agreement on the talk page". — MShabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 21:19, 1 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
