Bernard Haitink

Welcome back! No doubt you are adding some useful detail to Bernard Haitink discography.

But is there a reason why you have removed italics from many of the non-generic titles of works? Only a week or so ago, I added them, trying to follow (probably not with complete success) the detailed guidance at WP:NCMUSIC and WP:MOSMUSIC#Classical music titles.

Hi Gqayala! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Herbert von Karajan several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Herbert von Karajan, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. intforce (talk) 17:47, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Herbert von Karajan. 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:

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. intforce (talk) 18:23, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
