Edit warring at The Daily Caller
[edit]![Stop icon](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f1/Stop_hand_nuvola.svg/30px-Stop_hand_nuvola.svg.png)
Your recent editing history at The Daily Caller 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
Follow BRD and discuss this on the talk page. -- BullRangifer (talk) 18:15, 20 March 2020 (UTC)
- @BullRangifer: I think you are wrong here. After seeing that there was opposition to my edits, I posted my thoughts on the article's talk page. Posting on the Talk page was the *right* thing to do, no? Jeremydavis255 (talk) 20:41, 26 March 2020 (UTC)
- It was indeed the right thing to do. That is the "D" in BRD, which stands for "Discuss". BTW, I did not get your ping, because it wasn't added in the same edit as your comment. I saw this because it popped up in my watchlist. When it gets added later, it doesn't work. Next time, if you forget, just make it as a new comment and sign it with the usual four tildes. Then it will work. -- Valjean (talk) 02:49, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
