June 2018 edit
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on karate. 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. oknazevad (talk) 12:21, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
well edit
you have been given a lot of slack - some would have suggested you should have been blocked some days ago.
Try to either edit something else, and also take note of the messages - or simply go back and see why you have been reverted. It is very important if you are a new editor, that you find a similar article - open it up in edit mode and get a sense of reverse editing - see why things work.
Where someone reverts you, rather than accepting, try to go to the talk page, and get an explanation. If there is an inadequate or unhelpful response, try simply leaving help here on your talk page.
That is dont ever automatically revert of an edit you have made. In most cases there is a good reason or the reverting person can get blocked as well...If you dont get an explanation that helps your understanding, try other venues. But dont repetitively revert someone elses revert.
Regardless of whether the other editor is right or wrong, you should be getting a handle on (a) dont edit war (b) get third party advice or help (c) try to keep the humour WP:AGF. (d) try editing something else for a while. I am sorry I am not going to be able to get into details of each revert and the apparent reason. JarrahTree 14:10, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Take good advantage that someone hasnt blocked you for the repetitive reverts, and try to work out what you want to do - either learn the conventions of editing from looking at other articles on things you are interested in - if necessary reverse engineer to see what it is inside the format or WP:MOS or whatever. Read other articles -see how they have their bits and pieces that no one else is arguing about - get a sense of what constitutes a stable article. The pattern should become clearer the more you look at - how do the aikido articles look in comparison - check them out - see what makes good articles in that area - the content, the style the format, whatever.
