In response to your e-mail for edits on U.S. state temperature extremes

edit

Hi there, I believe your edits on U.S. state temperature extremes were very well indicated. There is the concept of edit warring on Wikipedia, where two editors essentially revert each other's edits without providing any explanation. You might also have read on the three-revert rule (3RR), which often leads to a temporary block. There are multiple Wikipedia articles that attempt to explain what you should do in those cases, but in my opinion, the simplest option is to mark that page on your watchlist (to remember there were unsourced or inappropriate edits) and return some time later to repair the work if someone else has not passed by there before your return. I notice that you did provide explanations in the reversions that you made, which is great. And you also left a message on User talk:Clifton Historian, which was a good, recommended move to explain your point of view. Unfortunately, that user did not respond to your message, which is quite common of those who perform disruptive edits. You can also leave a warning template on the user's talk page when they engage in disruptive editing by either obtaining it from Wikipedia:Disruptive editing or using Twinkle, and increase the warning level if disruptive editing persists. Finally, I think it's important to distinguish disruptive editing from vandalism. Although many will call out for disruptive editing, the definition of vandalism on Wikipedia is quite large and arguable in light of the particular editing situation: "The malicious removal of encyclopedic content, or the changing of such content beyond all recognition, without any regard to our core content policies of neutral point of view (which does not mean no point of view), verifiability and no original research, is a deliberate attempt to damage Wikipedia" (from Wikipedia:Vandalism). As such, depending on the particular situation at hand, it might be indicated to protect the encyclopedic content. In those cases, you can always leave a message to administrators on the Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism after sufficiently warning the user. Hope this helps!

I hope you consider joining WikiProject Meteorology. Stay healthy and safe, and thank you for your contributions. ~ Destroyeraa🌀 16:55, 24 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the invite! I'd like to take you up on that. One comment and a question - I'm not terribly adept at using coding in my edits, but I usally grind my way through it and preview frequently until I'm sure it's correctly formated. Also, when I went to add my name to the list of active members/contributors, the text box that opened up after I clicked 'edit' was blank. Is that where I'm supposed to add my name? Thanks in advance! AJC3fromS2K (talk) 23:33, 24 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
Just put * ~~~ to the members list. It will turn out like this:

Thanks for joining! ~ Destroyeraa🌀 01:23, 25 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
