  Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Ram Mandir, Ayodhya, you may be blocked from editing. SerChevalerie (talk) 18:45, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

SerChevalerie Are you trying to intimidate me? Lol. Please stop being in denial. Theology is a very extensive subject, there is no religion in the world that hasn't been used as an excuse to propagate violence. Was the previous Ram Mandir destroyed by a Mughal Emperor? No one knows. But the existence of a Hindu Temple is an undeniable fact. I should appreciate it if you could put aside your personal feelings. And ditto, stop with the disruptive editing. Unless you have better sources, stop editing the article. Amelia Reed (talk) 19:24, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Ameila ReedReply
Amelia Reed, please respond to the thread on the article's Talk page. I have explained my intentions there. SerChevalerie (talk) 20:03, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
 

Your recent editing history at Ram Mandir, Ayodhya 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

ARBIPA sanctions alert

edit

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at The Wire (India), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Read WP:UGC as well as WP:OR, please.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, we would like you to assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not do on Talk:Ram Mandir, Ayodhya. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Kautilya3 (talk) 07:04, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Kautilya3: I disagree. When asked for a citation, I provided the same. When asked for a better citation, I provided additional citations for the same. My edits were deleted without a proper reason being given. This deletion was done independently of the other extensive changes made to the page. I did NOT even interact with you and you sanctioned me without warning. Your party alone acted in bad faith. All of my actions were motivated to remove bias and improve neutrality. Wikipedia has been criticized for far too long for being 'left' and is now not even taken seriously. Amelia Reed (talk) 07:50, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
Amelia Reed, just to clarify, you haven't been sanctioned, and K3 and I cannot sanction you. Neither can we block you; we aren't administrators. What the warnings are about is that administrators may decide to do the same if they find your behaviour remains to be the same. I'd suggest you read the relevant policies K3 has mentioned. SerChevalerie (talk) 08:23, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
SerChevalerie Since we are talking about my behaviour, I want to know more. Was I offensive to a particular group of people? Did I add a blatant lie while ignoring the truth? Were my contributions not properly cited? When it comes to your behaviour, you ignored one side of the argument. You added bias to an article that was is supposed to be neutral. And you denied facts despite evidence on the contrary. You used intimidation tactics instead of having a conversation. Amelia Reed (talk) 08:35, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
Amelia Reed, I'm just going to say that at the end of the day, we mean well. Please assume good faith. Read the relevant policies stated to understand why your behaviour was problematic. Best regards, SerChevalerie (talk) 08:45, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
SerChevalerie Have a good day. Read this to understand why journalism MUST remain neutral and why Wikipedia is losing its authenticity. https://larrysanger.org/2020/05/wikipedia-is-badly-biased/ Amelia Reed (talk) 09:02, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

My warning above was based on this comment, specifically, "Clearly we cannot come to an agreement about this. While I value neutrality, you seem to be in disagreement about the same.... In view of your past actions that were in bad faith, I will disregard any future objections from you and Kautilya3".

Wikipedia is based on teamwork and WP:CONSENSUS. Comments like this vitiate the discussion and make it harder to arrive at CONSENSUS. So, in the end, they work against you. If you have an attitude like, "you people are all wrong, I am going to fix it myself", you won't be able to get far.

Other than this, I am glad to say that you have been quite civil and have been discussing issues in a proper manner. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 10:26, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Kautilya3 Unfortunately, please understand that I cannot say the same about you. Our introduction has been unpleasant, to say the least. I would have no problem with your behavior were it not for your ARBIPA sanctions alert that you posted yesterday. Or for the 'disrupt editing' alert posted by your friend SerChevalerie. You keep expecting me to work in good faith but you don't seem to follow it yourself. Yes, I read the AGF page, and both of your behaviors were problematic. Instead of encouraging a discussion, your friend did the exact opposite. He only conceded to the changes after you entered the discussion. And when it comes to "You people are all wrong, I am going to fix it myself", please feel free to look at the argument from the start till the present. This will be the last article that I contribute to because I find the environment to be hostile and does not contribute to neutrality and open-mindedness, which in case you couldn't tell, I value above everything else. Thank you for everything. Have a good day. No, I will not report you or your behavior because I believe you mean well, though are thoroughly misguided in your approach. If any day the situation arises, I look forward to working on better terms. Amelia Reed (talk) 10:46, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

I'm sorry you feel that way, but it isn't so. K3 just weighed in and pushed for a consensus. That's generally how these discussions go. Granted, I was a bit trigger happy with the disruptive editing warning, but as I said, you reverted two full sections of mine when the initial dispute was over a single line. I'm glad that you have apologized for your behaviour, and FWIW, so do I. SerChevalerie (talk) 10:53, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
SerChevalerie Please stop. You seem to make the situation worse than it is. I'm hoping that it is unintentionally. I will accept the "non-apology apology". Please lets leave it at this. I rather not make this even more unpleasant. Amelia Reed (talk) 11:01, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
Amelia Reed, you can check the Talk page of the article, we have replied there (maybe not tagged you). SerChevalerie (talk) 11:17, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Ok, I will accept the criticism that my interaction with you was "unpleasant". But please note that you had hit 3RR within the first few days of your editing. That is a problem sign for us. But on the whole, I value the point of view you bring, and hope that you will contnue editing. All the best! -- Kautilya3 (talk) 11:16, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Amelia Reed, I have read the piece you mentioned above. Just for some further reading (again, WP:AGF towards me): User talk:Newslinger § Continuation.

Also please see WP:SIGNATURE. I think you're typing it out by yourself. SerChevalerie (talk) 09:10, 13 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
