Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a message letting you know that one or more of your recent edits to Torah in Islam have been undone by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 11:05, 3 January 2022 (UTC)Reply


  Hi Loverofediting! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Dhu al-Qarnayn 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:Dhu al-Qarnayn, 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. Wiqi(55) 15:13, 4 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

By the way, your addition that "Nowhere does Ibn Hisham refer to King Sa’b as being the specific Dhul Qarnayn referenced in the Qur’an." is not true. See Zadeh (2017, p.97),

Wahb b. Munabbih (d. ca 102/720) asks the Companion of the Prophet, Ibn 'Abbas (d. 68/687-8), about the identity of Dhu 'l-Qarnayn. Ibn 'Abbas responds that the hero mentioned in the Qur'an corresponds to al-Sa'b b. Dhi Marathid, ...

Your recent editing history at Dhu al-Qarnayn 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.

  Please do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Alexander the Great. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Please try to find out what reliable sources are saying before you change articles. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ) 00:17, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Dhu al-Qarnayn. 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. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ) 19:04, 25 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Edit warring at Dhu al-Qarnayn

edit

Hello Loverofediting. You seem to be edit warring. You may be blocked if you revert again at Dhu al-Qarnayn unless you have obtained a prior consensus for your change on the article talk page. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 16:51, 5 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 48 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

You continued to revert the article here at 19:51 after my warning at 16:51 so I've issued a standard edit warring block. You've never posted on the article talk page. EdJohnston (talk) 20:37, 5 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not remove information from articles, as you did to Mu'awiya I. Wikipedia is not censored, and content is not removed on the sole grounds of perceived offensiveness. Please discuss this issue on the article's talk page to reach consensus rather than continuing to remove the disputed material. If the content in question involves images, you also have the option to configure Wikipedia to hide the images that you may find offensive. Thank you.
