Violation of DS restrictions and edit warring

You have just violated the following restriction:

• "Consensus required: All editors must obtain consensus on the talk page of this article before reinstating any edits that have been challenged (via reversion). If in doubt, don't make the edit."

See the conditions at the top of Talk:Trump campaign–Russian meetings. Your restoration can also be seen as edit warring, so here's a template which explains that:

Your recent editing history at Talk:Trump campaign–Russian meetings shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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 BRD 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. -- BullRangifer (talk) PingMe 06:38, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

As required by the rules, I will report this incident, but will request leniency for you because you are presumably new here. -- BullRangifer (talk) PingMe 06:40, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

The complaint is registered here. -- BullRangifer (talk) PingMe 07:00, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Discretionary sanctions alert

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding all edits about, and all pages related to post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Trump campaign–Russian meetings

A couple of things about your edits at Trump campaign–Russian meetings (or editing Misplaced Pages in general). If you notice that you inadvertently violate page restrictions such as "consensus required" or 1RR, or break the three-revert rule, you should always self-revert your violating edit.

It seems that you copied the material from Natalia Veselnitskaya. If you do that, you must give attribution to the users who have written the material. The simplest way of doing so is using a proper edit summary, such as copied content from ]; see that page's history for attribution. If my assumption is incorrect, please explain on the article talk page where you copied the material from and someone will fix the attribution. Politrukki (talk) 19:42, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
