June 2019

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on List of countries and dependencies by population; 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. AussieLegend (✉) 07:31, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

• The latest errors with your graph are explained at Talk:List of countries and dependencies by population#New graph. You need to get this right before it is added to the article. You can't just keep edit-warring over it. --AussieLegend (✉) 07:33, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

• Guarapiranga, you seem to be edit-warring in a similar way at Jewish population by country. If you don't start using talk pages to get consensus when you are made aware that there is disagreement with your edits, and instead keep edit-warring (with or without the belligerent edit-summaries you've been using), you are likely to get yourself blocked. I'd hate to see that happen, so please listen to advice and alter your approach. Thank you. -- Begoon 07:40, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
  • I've started a discussion at that article as the graph problems there are identical. However, I've recommended that we maintain a single discussion at Talk:List of countries and dependencies by population#New graph where we can work toward fixing the problems in both graphs at once. I've alerted Akld guy as the editor opposing the graph there. --AussieLegend (✉) 08:42, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

Did I start the war? No, I didn't. You emphasise using the Talk page, but did you use it to discuss the changes before reverting them? No, you didn't. "Good for thee, not for me"? — Guarapiranga (talk) 04:12, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

Please see my reply at Talk:List of countries and dependencies by population#New graph. Thank you. -- Begoon 04:33, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

October 2019

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Circumcision; 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. Alexbrn (talk) 06:45, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

Request to stop pinging

Please stop pinging me, I find it annoying as it overfills my notification list with cruft. I know how to use a watchlist so will see any comment/reply you make on relevant articles. Alexbrn (talk) 11:07, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for October 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Circumcision and law, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page AAP (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 07:50, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

Note

After reviewing your edits recently, it seems clear that you have a severe problem with edit warring and bludgeoning. You were recently warned to pursue dispute resolution. You appear to have ignored this directive, instead endlessly arguing on talk pages. Of significant concern, you saw fit to warn a WMF board member against edit warring via a template. I'm going to be honest, you're strongly coming across as a POV-pusher, whether you intend to be or not, and you're likely on your last legs before being indef blocked. You can either continue being tendentious, and preferably move on from your problematic area of circumcision, and prove that you're actually able to contribute something of value that's not controversial and politically charged, or, you can take your chances with the imminent block. Your choice. I am not going to argue with you about it either, but I will block you if I deem it necessary. ~Swarm~ 01:30, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

So you find I'm the one pushing POV and not the ones that have been long patrolling these pages and disruptively undoing any contribution they perceive as remotely threatening to their POV, Swarm? And that I am the one endlessly arguing on talk pages? That's interesting… And I'm the tendentious one!

So you ask me to prove that I can contribute in topics other than circumcision, but if you look at my edits, they include population pages, age of consent matters, template suggestions, etc. Didn't you say you reviewed them? Look, it's easy: it's right there on my profile page. — Guarapiranga (talk) 01:51, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

Look, I'm not going to argue with you, I'm just giving you a heads up that you're obviously being disruptive in a controversial topic area, in more ways than one, and you're probably going to get indef blocked sooner rather than later if you don't change your approach. That's just my honest assessment of the situation. Please review the links I included, it's important that you understand these concepts if you're going to stop being problematic. You can take it or leave it, but don't say you weren't warned. ~Swarm~ 20:06, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

DS alert

This is to inform you that discretionary sanctions (DS) are in force for "any gender-related dispute or controversy", which includes articles about FGM. To alert editors to the existence of the DS we have to use this template. Just to be clear, this notice doesn't imply any wrongdoing on your part, and I'm leaving it as an involved editor, not as an admin. More information below.

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in (a) GamerGate, (b) any gender-related dispute or controversy, (c) people associated with (a) or (b), all broadly construed. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Misplaced Pages's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
