  Welcome to Wikipedia. Editors are expected to treat each other with respect and civility. On this encyclopedia project, editors assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not appear to do at Dawson's Field hijackings. Here is Wikipedia's welcome page, and it is hoped that you will assume the good faith of other editors and continue to help us improve Wikipedia! Thank you very much!

Your recent editing history at Bali 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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle 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 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.

earthquakes in Indonesia

edit

https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/List_of_earthquakes_in_Indonesia in the usual editing of wikipedia articles, established users understand that as an online encyclopedia, recent events do not necessarily instantly become part of the encyclopedia.

For instance - earthquakes in bali might have been caught by the large context article -

identified above.

1815
1917
1976

however they are neither identified in the article about Bali or have articles about them, however the banda sea items

https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Banda_Sea
has articles about 2 due to th eimpact.

Your editing shows limited understanding of what established editors know as WP:UNDUE

just because it happened, does not make it notable to insert where you have done so

for instance 1976 had a much larger impact and yet no one has either inserted that into the article or created an article about that. Try to get a handle on things by registering to edit - going through a welcome template and explore, and find there is more to editing than reverting other editors. Best of luck.

Oh thank you. Perhaps if that other editor above also took the time to explain like you have, I wouldn't have reverted.49.185.6.188 (talk) 09:14, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
I forgot to ask, when is someone going to create article for the 1976 quake?49.185.6.188 (talk) 09:15, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
voila!. --Merbabu (talk) 09:38, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Oh, I thought the other person claimed there was no page.49.185.6.188 (talk) 09:48, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Either way, it doesn't mean that this year's earthquake needs special mention in the Bali article. --Merbabu (talk) 09:58, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
Most situations require editors to have 100s if not thousands (in my case tens of thousands) of articles on their watch list - many have little tact, time or disposition to write explanations about context, common practices and accepted conventions. That said, it is more on you to readup the intro material, get a user name and take it very very slowy. JarrahTree 10:28, 17 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
