The First Great Edit War is an edit war involving the national origin of the Caesar salad. It became famous (or rather infamous depending on POV) when it was featured on Misplaced Pages:Lamest edit wars and some Revolutionary veterans spoke of their horrible "blocked times". Thus, a Wikipedian POW-MIA flag came popular.
Background
For 16 years, there has been a "debate" on whether Caesar salad was created in Mexico in 1924, or in Ancient Rome. Aside from its national origin, its etymology is also debated in the more the war.
Factions
There are two factions, like in most wars.
Reactionaries
They are people who say the Caesar salad was made in Mexico. Lots of anti-vandal bots classified as vandals, of course or why would we mention them?
Revolutionaries
They are the opposite of the Reactionaries, saying it was made in Rome. They are seen as vandals who, most of them at least, didn't mean to vandal.
Current situation
Even though there was a moment of peace, in which a block was raised, where the reactionaries won. As soon as the block was lifted, the Italian partisan activity restarted.
As of now, The First Great Edit War is changing and changing, with no clear conclusion. As of February 2024, the Caesar Salad Misplaced Pages page claims the place of origin to be Mexico, indeed making the Reactionaries the victorious, however no formal war has come to the end.
On January 28, 2024, the Caesar Salad was “Albanian” for 1 hour and 31 minutes (12:48-14:19 UTC±0) but was soon removed off the Misplaced Pages page. As a result of this, it has been unfortunately blue locked until December 23, 2024.
On December 1, 2024, a book was published that confirmed that the creator of Caesar salad was Caesar Sardini, ending the war with a Reactionary victory.
