Welcome!

edit

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Theodoros Kolokotronis, have removed content without a good reason to do so. Content on Wikipedia should not be removed just because you disagree with it or because you think it's wrong, unless the claim is not verifiable. Instead, you should consider expanding the article with noteworthy and verifiable information of your own, citing reliable sources when you do so. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles. 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!

Why you try to change Greek history. He has nothing to do with Arvanites. He was from Peloponnisos. Albanians make propaganda. Igoumenitsa1992 (talk) 17:05, 11 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
As I just said: "Content on Wikipedia should not be removed just because you disagree with it or because you think it's wrong, unless the claim is not verifiable. Instead, you should consider expanding the article with noteworthy and verifiable information of your own, citing reliable sources when you do so". In other words, you can't just say "this is wrong" and remove it; it has a source attached. You need therefore a very good reason why that source is not reliable, and an alternate source for the alternate text you wish to add.
Please also do not accuse other editors of engaging in "propaganda" because you disagree with them. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 17:09, 11 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Introduction to contentious topics

edit

You have recently edited a page related to the Balkans or Eastern Europe, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Change it. Albanias call sources from an Albanian historian Aristeidis kollas who hates Greece. Igoumenitsa1992 (talk) 17:07, 11 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Accusing "Albanians" as a group of being engaged in some kind of conspiracy is a good example of how not to approach contentious topics. AntiDionysius (talk) 17:11, 11 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@AntiDionysius I agree that Igoumenitsa1992's language is not appropriate for wikipedia, however, I would also like to point out that it was not them who instigated the edit-war in this case, as it is evident when taking a closer look at the articles' history. My friendly advice for Igoumenitsa1992 would be to avoid this language, if they are planning to continue editing in wikipedia, because this could be seen as personal attack. Best.

Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 12:54, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Fotos Tzavelas. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 13:08, 13 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop. If you continue to change genres without discussion or sources, you may be blocked from editing. Jingiby (talk) 18:49, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Kitsos Tzavelas. 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. AntiDionysius (talk) 19:14, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  • Igoumenitsa1992, your last edit summary [1] where you wrote "I will change it again and again" is extremely disruptive and it is not how Wikipedia works. How Souliotes are treated in Wikipedia, reflects on the sources and the (lack or not of) academic consensus on the matter. Trying to make changes without discussing them at the relevant article's talk page and seeking WP:CONSENSUS, constitues WP:EDITWARRING and may get you blocked from editing, which I am sure is not what you want. You are probably a new editor in Wikipedia, and that's understandable. If I were you, I could heel to the kind advice of fellow editors about your editorial behavior and problematic language tone. Good day. --- SilentResident (talk ✉ | contribs ✎) 22:24, 15 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia. Jingiby (talk) 03:25, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, Igoumenitsa1992. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Jingiby (talk) 04:50, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

 

Your recent editing history 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.
Please stop now. You have already been reported on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring and continuing will just make it worse for you. Violating edits have been and will be reverted. Even if you believe your opinion is correct, you may not edit war. Please start a dispute respolution request if needed. Thank you, Lordseriouspig 07:45, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Jingiby (talk) 08:18, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for persistently making disruptive edits. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 08:40, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
  • Thanks for intervening here, Pickersgill-Cunliffe. Given that virtually all of this editor's 67 edits are unconstructive/reverted, I would suggest that this block is made indefinite. Otherwise more time will be lost by several editors to revert, warn and report this one after the current block expires. Ktrimi991 (talk) 18:20, 16 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
    Hi @Pickersgill-Cunliffe, I just want to bring your attention to the fact that the user has once again started to make non-constructive edits on a variety of articles even though their block just expired. An indef block would really help solve this problem. Botushali (talk) 11:30, 18 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
