  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);

August 2018[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Tim Flach. 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:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. 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. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 17:38, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Tim Flach. scope_creep (talk) 20:17, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion[edit]

Information icon Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 20:28, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Hi Samsonsegg, you must let people reply, and stop trying to force the issue. I suggest you wait 24 hours, until the consensus is decided, or create an RFC. That is the 4th time, I had to fix those references. I will not be making any more reverts, next time I will be escalating it up to an administrator. The sentence itself, is structurally sound, properly sourced, and verifies the factual content of the sentences. You seem to be trying to de WP:NPOV the article, by removing two perfectly valid sentences, which means the article will be no longer properly factual correct. I suggest you don't revert again. Content issues should be fixed on the page. The article as it stands is perfectly reasonable. scope_creep (talk) 20:35, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Okay scope_creep, thanks a lot for your advice. I just found it all a bit confusing why no one responded to my concerns about those sentences and simply reverted my edit. I felt I was making a good case and no one was paying attention. Thanks again for your advice on the references, I won't make any more mistakes. Samsonsegg (talk) 23:25, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Without sound trite, Folks make mistake all the time, it is how you deal with and fix it. I think you have improved the article. Keep it up. scope_creep (talk) 09:25, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for advertising or promotion, as you did at Tim Flach. From your contributions, this seems to be your only purpose.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Swarm 21:17, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry, Samsonegg, you seem to be an amicable person, but from your edits it seems apparent that your only goal here is to promote Tim Flach. Between your repeated attempts to remove what you perceive to be negative information, and inserting content that blatantly sounds like it's written for a promotional article, including blatant puffery, along with the fact that you apparently have no interest in any other articles, I simply can't accept your word that you have no connection to the subject, whether it's paid promotion or merely a sentimental one. Swarm 22:03, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, Swarm , I really thought "famous for" was more accurate than "specialises in", or at least more verifiably correct. It wasn't intended to be flattering and I wasn't even concerned that it might be. I actually think this block is very unfair -- I tried to discuss everything fairly and justify/reference all my suggestions :( :( I don't really understand why I've gotten so much hate Samsonsegg (talk) 12:17, 31 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
