[edit]

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Misl. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges. 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. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 23:03, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Misl; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that 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. M.Bitton (talk) 23:18, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello admins thanks for letting me know, as I am new to Wikipedia. But on two articles Misl and Dallewalia Misl, an editor named Abh9850 is repeatedly removing, the founder’s name as GULAB SINGH RATHOR. Here is the reference -

https://archive.org/details/HistoryOfTheSikhsVol.IvTheSikhCommonwealthOrRiseAndFallOfSikh

Please read page 65 and line 2 and see that founder’s full name is GULAB SINGH RATHOR. Why it’s being removed repeatedly, that’s my only concern. I hope Wikipedia will support the TRUTH. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.253.165.236 (talkcontribs)

You will need to discuss the matter at the talk page. There is a concern that your claim cannot be verified. —C.Fred (talk) 23:24, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks C.Fred I will.
