Misplaced Pages

Latest revision as of 16:56, 5 October 2021

November 2016

Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Political positions of Donald Trump. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Misplaced Pages 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 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 Misplaced Pages is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 21:20, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

December 2019

Please stop your disruptive editing.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Misplaced Pages's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Misplaced Pages's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Misplaced Pages, as you did at Jules Massenet‎, you may be blocked from editing. Ian Rose (talk) 11:03, 26 December 2019 (UTC)

Deceitful editing

I see that in addition to edit warring to peddle your own, unsubstantiated, point of view, you have also attempted to falsify a quotation in the article by censoring a part of it you didn't like. That is wholly unacceptable. Misplaced Pages expects its contributors to be honest and not to attempt to deceive people by falsifying cited material. The quotation reads, and will continue to read "It would be absurd to claim that he was anything more than a second-rate composer; he nevertheless deserves to be seen, like Richard Strauss, at least as a first-class second-rate one". You should be ashamed of your fraudulent conduct. If you continue, I shall seek a ban on your editing Misplaced Pages. Tim riley talk 16:19, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

You're still not getting this, are you? The original description of Strauss as a second-rate composer was by Strauss himself. It is amply cited to Del Mar and all the main Strauss sources. It is not for you to attempt to impose your views and falsify a quotation: that is called lying. Please stop. Tim riley talk 21:58, 29 December 2019 (UTC)
