User talk:Redacted II

May 2024

Your recent editing history at Talk:SpaceX Starship flight tests 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; read about 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.

Not trying to edit war, my apologies. Redacted II (talk) 18:32, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

I don't believe you're "deliberately trying to hurt Wikipedia" (AGF). However, you're well aware of the rules and continue to have instances where you don't adhere to them after previous warnings. There are alternatives to reverting multiple times. I tried to address the potential for an edit war on the article talk page, but you still engaged in edit warring.

I did follow the alternative: I explained the reason for the reclosing here, and then reclosed the RfC. The editor who reverted the recloser of the RfC seemed like they opposed it mainly because I replied to their Support of the RfC.

I understand why you reported me, and while I disagree, I think that since you reported me, you should have also reported DerVolkssport11, as they were also edit-warring.

Also, when you said I admitted to a POV, I have explained in the past that the wording was meant to be humorous, and nothing more. I changed the wording yesterday because I got sick of the accusations it had caused.

(Finally, please make sure your initial message on a talk page is the final version: it sends a notification when its edited, making me think you had sent two messages) Redacted II (talk) 19:46, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
