April 2023 edit
Your recent editing history at 1968 Republican Party presidential primaries 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; read about 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. While you're at it, please see WP:OWN. --Wow (talk) 00:28, 4 April 2023 (UTC)
May 2023 edit
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit to 1972 United States presidential election did not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or to provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.
The edit summary field looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → 
Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary, and then click the "Save" button.
Thanks! The majority of your edits do not include edit summaries, so please start writing them in the future. Also, this revert you made is incorrect. Please read MOS:SMALL. --Wow (talk) 06:00, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
- Please stop reverting me without a reason and start writing edit summaries. If you continue to make edits like this, I'm going to assume that you're not here to build an encyclopedia and take you to WP:ANI. --Wow (talk) 04:01, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

I did not remove the map but I agree with the removal. It's just a geometric shape. We also don't know what you're basing it on. You need to have a source that is cited on the image page. I did some research in Sacramento about ten years ago looking for a good map that could be used for this article and didn't find one. Wehwalt (talk) 14:25, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
File source problem with File:Texas Presidential Election Results 1848.svg edit
Thank you for uploading File:Texas Presidential Election Results 1848.svg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.

April 2024 edit
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on 1960 United States presidential election: Revision history. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although 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. Hey man im josh (talk) 01:51, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
