Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Fundraising, you may be blocked from editing. I might have thought that the edit was made in good faith, although questionable, if you had not used an edit summary which significantly misrepresented the nature of the edit, in a way which gave the clear impression that you were trying to hide what you were doing from scrutiny. 80.168.197.4 (talk) 10:12, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

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

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

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.

In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount and can lead to a block, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; 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. I see that you have repeated the edit I mentioned above, with no answer to my comment about the misleading edit summary. 80.168.197.4 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 17:29, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

History of Armenia

I had to remove the changes that were made by a banned user (Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Beh-nam/Archive 94.210.203.230). You can do your ref filling again if you want to. Oh and Happy New Year! Bladesmulti (talk) 22:52, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

I will have a look into it and yes, a very very Happy New Year to you too, Bladesmulti . Lotje (talk) 12:43, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

Shared account?

At User talk:80.168.197.4, in connection with some edits made by your account, you wrote "none of the edits you are referring to have anything to do with me". You were asked whether that meant that someone other than you had been using the account, but you made no answer. Can you please state whether the edits in question were in fact made by someone else? The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 17:20, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi, JamesBWatson, because of limited account access, I will come back later on that subject. Thank you for your time. Lotje (talk) 20:27, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi, @JamesBWatson: coming back on the User talk:80.168.197.4: --> [1] [2] [3] [4]. I have not made any of those anonymous edits 80.168.197.4 is referring too. I do not have a shared account. Hopefully that answers your question. Lotje (talk) 16:21, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Well, I'm afraid I am at a loss to see how you could think those were the edits referred to. It is explicitly stated at User talk:80.168.197.4 that the edit referred to was this one. You can no longer see the contents of that edit, as I have now revision-deleted it, but you can see that it was an edit made by your account, not one of the anonymous edits you made. Were you saying that edit was made not by you, but by someone else using your account?

(To remind you what the edit was about, you wrote "On top of that, you now also seem to have accused <Username redacted>, who is a member of the anti-vandalism unit of being involved in edit warring!" The only thing that could be regarded as an accusation, as far as I can see, is the statement "Here [5] [6] [7] [8] is edit warring.") The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 18:30, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

Please read this and you might understand my reaction. EOD. Lotje (talk) 08:01, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Can you please give me a straight "yes" or "no" to the following simple question? Was the edit I have referred to above made by you or not? The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 15:36, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

As you seem to have changed visibility of 2 revisions on page User talk:80.168.197.4: content hidden (Non-public identifying or personal information), I cannot retrace the exact content, but I guess it has to do with this, because I had been wrongly accused of Reverting vandalism edit with a deliberately misleading edit summary), which it was not! Would you now please leave my talkpage alone? I do not trust you anymore. Lotje (talk) 16:55, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Well said, Lotje! Mr. Watson could ask a CheckUser to verify anonymous edits before accusing you. He is one of the many who does not understand the principle assume good faith very well. Cheers,  Klaas|Z4␟V:  09:46, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

WP:Articles for deletion/Sauna culture in The Netherlands and Flanders

I've changed your speedy deletion request to a Delete vote. You were asking for the Articles for Deletion page to be deleted, and I don't think you meant that. (If you did mean it, sorry, but the answer would be 'no'...) Peridon (talk) 17:08, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

• Pardon Peridon, (nice combination of two words), you are correct, that was not what I meant. Thank you for your kindness helping clearing the mess I made of it. Lotje (talk) 17:12, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
