If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

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. RolandR (talk) 09:46, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection.

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. Softlavender (talk) 10:54, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for edit warring.

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 ~~~~}}.  Bishonen | talk 15:43, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Happy editing! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:00, 12 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Michael Davitt 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.

• This block is longer than the usual 24-hour block for three-revert-rule violations because this IP address has been blocked before for edit warring. In general, you should start a talk page discussion once it is clear that there is a disagreement. The two editors who disagree with you have done so at

@Mz7: I notice you have not blocked or even warned the other editor. I was revertig to the stable version. She was edit warring against the stable version without consensus. Becuase I am an IP and she has an account you treat her differently though. It's just discrimination and pure stupidity on your part really. 80.111.16.75 (talk) 19:22, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I considered this, but they have clearly attempted to seek consensus on the talk page, whereas you have ignored those attempts in favor of edit warring, and they have also clearly laid out the reasoning behind their arguments, whereas the only basis for your reverts is that yours was apparently "the stable version". This is the relevant distinction between your behavior and theirs, not IP vs. registered account. Mz7 (talk) 19:44, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Mz7:So it's ok to edit war and you will get away with it without so much as a warning if you use the talk page? Got it, will take that into account in the future but I must have missed that part of Wikipedia policy where it says that. Also I did lay out my rationale. Look at my earliest edit summaries. 80.111.16.75 (talk) 19:46, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well, look at it this way. It's kind of hypocritical to tell someone to "get consensus" or cite

WP:BRD when you yourself have not responded to their consensus-seeking discussion. This isn't supposed to be a you vs. them project. Editors are expected to work together to get things done, and the talk page discussion is an invitation for you to work with them and explain why you think those quotes should be included in the article. You said in an edit summary that they are "sourced", but the other editors have correctly observed that Wikipedia guidelines discourage the overuse of quotations, and they claim that this case resembles an overuse of quotations; if you have a response to that, then the talk page would have been an excellent place to put it, instead of reverting with an edit summary. (Be very careful about arguing things via edit summaries, as that can lead to edit warring.) Perhaps you could accept some sort of compromise solution, such as changing the quotations to paraphrase. I would be willing to unblock you early if you agree not to revert further and instead participate in the talk page discussion. Mz7 (talk) 20:09, 14 August 2018 (UTC)[reply
