Parent and child categories edit
Hi - where 'Buildings and structures of Tassie' exists - Buildings and structures in lonnie aka Launceston - is a child cat - in general the mix of parent and child cats is discouraged... just explaining this if you see me reverting the addition of the two together. cheers
If you look at what cats are parent cats at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Buildings_and_structures_in_Launceston,_Tasmania - there is no need to have items from lonnie in both - I do hope that makes sense... well worth looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categorization_FAQ sats 13:24, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
Do you read your talk page edits? Your adding parent cats to articles with child cats is continuing... do you need further explanation of what you are doing? sats 10:20, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
- Yep, wasting a bit of our time, otherwise OK. Crusoe8181 (talk) 10:28, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
March 2013 edit
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. 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, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. sats 10:28, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
- Your earlier edit history shows that you have clearly had good experience editing botanical articles, but you show no sign of responding to talk page items, and continue to put in the parent category despite reversions by experienced editors - (expect to be blocked if you continue to do so without any indication of why you insist on reverting without edit summaries)
It would be good if you could continue to edit article relevant to Launceston without reverting corrections, as the Tasmania project has very few active editors. Try not to be so shy, and respond - and you are less likely to be blocked if you actually engage - rather than being silent in your editing. Using talk pages shows a sign that you are willing to be a part of the community. Remaining silent and reverting corrections is likely to be interpreted as an unwillingness to understand a basic wikipedia process of not combining child and parent categories - it is a very small simple part of the larger scheme of things - and not something you should keep reverting! sats 15:32, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
