No - false accusation. I only reverted a change ONE TIME on that page - not repeatedly. Reverting a change ONCE does not amount to REPEATEDLY reverting it. ITs not even close to the 3RR rule. Please be careful about your accusations in the future. Honoredebalzac345 (talk) 17:05, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Are you actually new here? Have you ever edited under another name? You appear to be awfully sure of yourself and policy for someone who is theoretically only days old.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Adrian Zenz; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's

I am now going to go ahead and create a talk section on the topic anyway. Honoredebalzac345 (talk) 17:13, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

3rr is a bright line but even one revert can be edit warring.

And no - I have never edited Wikipedia before I created this account - except one small grammatical change I made on a page as an unregistered user few weeks ago. After that I decided to create an account. Honoredebalzac345 (talk) 17:24, 11 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Honoredebalzac345, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your additions to

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double
  inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners
  , for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is
  Wikipedia:Copy-paste
  .
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are PD or compatibly licensed) it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, the help desk or the Teahouse before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Wikipedia:Translation#How to translate. See also Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 21:14, 12 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Look what I've just found out. I had thought that Adrian Zenz debacle was over, and I haven't even edited in such topics ever since, and yet now we've been accused of being socks of some other user. I don't know about your situation, but your name was mentioned and I was in the dark as to what was happening until recently as I wasn't even tagged. The way new users are being treated is just appalling. Telsho (talk) 17:11, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lol yeah I saw that. They seem to be obsessed with new users - particularly those who fight back against their politicization of Wikipedia and abusive edits. It seems few of them are actually here to build an encyclopedia, but largely to push their political agenda on Wikipedia and hound new users. Honoredebalzac345 (talk) 17:27, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not to mention users being accused of being a part of some bigger organization. When people constantly makes accusations like that, it really makes you think what the
