Your recent editing history at Emily Blunt 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 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 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

As i mentioned in your page. I had no clue what edit war is i just chose a very delightful and beautiful picture of emily blunt and wanted to change it for her. But someone kept changing it back. That photo is awfully cropped and not a true representation of how she look now. So after explaining i hope you understand why i changed it and please change it back to what i have chosen. Thank you Hollywoodfanatic (talk) 16:51, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If you read the links above it explains what an edit war is and what happens and how it escalates. I'm not saying your addition was bad but if you take your proposed changes to the talkpage others may agree with you. It will help form a consensus.

okay thanks for that. I've posted a discussion on her Talk Page. How do i gain consensus Hollywoodfanatic (talk) 01:35, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, consensus and how we envision it working is found at Wikipedia:Consensus, It goes over how we edit and respond. You were BOLD and made a change. Someone reverted you, we assume in good faith, now it becomes a discussion between you and the other editors and any other person who wishes to get involved. Collaboration is the key.
