Re: W:u2

edit

Sorry I am late. I am always off on weekends, because I only have access to Wikipedia at work. I'd like to explain to you (now that we are going to work together in WP:U2) that I have a poor Internet conection at work and no Internet at home. I can only access Wikipedia, (not even Commons or the other wikis, just Wikipedia). I contribute using U2 by U2 (I have a copy) and fixing stuffs in the article. My mentor User:Cullen328 and a friend of mine User:Pjoef provide me information posting it in a mentorship page, so I can save it and work with it in my computer (after I remove the copyrighted info from Wikipedia). Sorry if this causes you a huge bother. I'd like to know what you think. Do you think we can work together without problems?

PS: Sorry for my English if it's bad. It's not my native language.

Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

WP:1RR at Israel–Hamas war

edit

Hi; at topics related to the Israel-Arab conflict, editors are restricted to one revert every 24 hours: An editor must not perform more than one reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period. An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert.

In the past 24 hours you have made two reverts:

  1. 06:35, 7 March 2024‎ (Reverted 05:44, 7 March 2024‎)
  2. 08:46, 6 March 2024 (Reverted 19:09, 5 March 2024)

Please self-revert 06:35, 7 March 2024‎ to bring yourself into compliance with WP:1RR. BilledMammal (talk) 06:50, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for self-reverting. I also agree with Selfstudier; seeing 1RR as an allowance, rather than a bright line that you cannot cross, may lead you into trouble in the future. BilledMammal (talk) 08:36, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Good idea to self revert. Re edit summary "Not allowed, 90 minutes left", I suggest that you do not view the 1R as an allowance, the idea should not be that the 90 minutes go by and then you can do it but instead do not edit war if you can avoid it. One can always initiate a talk page discussion. Selfstudier (talk) 07:16, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Edit summary

edit

This edit summary is in breach of WP:CIVIL. Please desist. Coretheapple (talk) 00:38, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

"Might be" means that is not an assertion and this [1] is a comment about that edit, it is not about a person. Deblinis (talk) 00:54, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
It is needlessly inflammatory. Please don't use a summary like that again. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:01, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

WP:1RR at multiple articles

edit

At Jeffrey Gettleman:

  1. 00:00, 13 March 2024
  2. 00:56, 13 March 2024

At Screams Without Words:

  1. 03:14, 11 March 2024
  2. 03:33, 11 March 2024
  3. 04:03, 11 March 2024

Please self-revert 00:56, 13 March 2024, 03:33, 11 March 2024, and 04:03, 11 March 2024, and please remember that you need to self-regulate here; you can't consistently violate WP:1RR even if you do consistently correct violations when asked to. BilledMammal (talk) 01:34, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

No "Extended confirmed protection" at Jeffrey Gettleman. Deblinis (talk) 01:58, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
And there wasn't any revert at Screams Without Words, there is only text added
Here [2] a " was added
here [3] a text was added at the beginning of the sentence
Here [4] a text was added at the end of the sentence. Deblinis (talk) 01:59, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
1RR applies to all edits within the Israel-Arab conflict topic area broadly construed, including the ones you made at Jeffrey Gettleman, regardless of whether there is extended confirmed protection - Each editor is limited to one revert per page per 24 hours on any edits made to content within the area of conflict..
Please see the diffs I provided for Screams Without Words; the diffs you are discussing are different to the ones that I have linked as reverts. BilledMammal (talk) 02:01, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
1RR applies to any content related to the topic area, whether or not the article is protected. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:03, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
"Jeffrey Gettleman"; done.
Three changes at Screams Without Words; done. - Deblinis (talk) 06:04, 14 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for self-reverting - however, self-reverting and then a day and a half later re-implementing your edit for the third time (first, second) is generally not appropriate; 1RR isn't an allowance, it's a restriction.
I was more concerned by today's sequence of events at Israel-Hamas war; you violated 1RR with 08:33, 16 March 2024, having first reverted at 09:09, 15 March 2024. After MakeandToss asked you to self-revert you did so, only to re-implement your edit four minutes later. I would suggest you self-revert your reinstatement and get consensus on the talk page. BilledMammal (talk) 10:20, 16 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Self revert. Done. Deblinis (talk) 11:31, 16 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
