Your recent editing history at Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Ghazi shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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 article's 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 your 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. —C.Fred (talk) 19:59, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi C.Fred, please have a look at the article's history, and my recent addition to the article's talk page. Am I supposed to be a tutor here? Renamed user 156yagz5r48a5f1a1f (talk) 23:40, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I have looked at the article's history, and it is clear from there that this is a content dispute, not vandalism. Even in the talk page, this seems to be a dispute among editors making good-faith edits, not vandalizing the articles. As a result, you need to go through the standard process for making changes in articles: discuss the desired changes and get consensus for the change before you make the change. (Or, if you boldly make a change and are reverted, discuss: WP:BRD.) That's why I'm dealing with this not as a vandalism situation but as a content dispute—and 3RR applies in content disputes. —C.Fred (talk) 23:54, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You need to start signing your posts

[edit]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. - Mlpearc (open channel) 19:24, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
