Florida-Florida State rivalry

Yes, I probably was quick on the trigger because it was an edit by an IP account. I have copyedited the addition. I don't think it was overly flowery, though that's something I try to clean out of additions, so I took out a few adjective phrases and tightened up the text. The language is tweaked, but the substance is now in there. —C.Fred (talk) 13:46, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Don't forget that once text is added to Wikipedia, it's not really "your" addition any more. It's part of the article, and any editor is free to revise it for the good of the article. I removed the added text the first time because I thought it wasn't for the good of the article. I let it stand the second time because, on reconsideration, it did enhance the article; I tightened up the writing to improve it. —C.Fred (talk) 13:54, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

C.Fred, regarding your earlier comments and edits: fair enough, this is a learning experience for me. Thank you for your insight. My goal, just as is yours, is to attempt to enhance the accuracy and fairness of Wikipedia. I don't fault you for deleting my original edit since indeed I was not signed in. —Poucher(talk) 14:00, 10 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

February 2020

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Wang; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. TJRC (talk) 00:04, 14 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
