== Request for unprotecting [[Vaticinium ex eventu]] ==

Dear EdJohnston, you recently EC protected {{pagelinks|Vaticinium ex eventu}} as a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/3RRArchive432#User%3ARusdo_reported_by_User%3ATgeorgescu_%28Result%3A_EC_protected%29 result of edit-warring]. However, the content dispute which triggered the edit war has since been resolved, and constructive editors have already [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Talk:Vaticinium_ex_eventu&curid=64966350&diff=1021309984&oldid=1021301189 found themselves] unable to edit the page. Would you consider unprotecting it? Thanks, [[User:Apaugasma|Apaugasma]] ([[User talk:Apaugasma|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Apaugasma|contribs]]) 01:07, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

== Revert ==
Ok, I agree to make no more reverts on English wikipedia articles I have previously edited without consensus first , but I am able to revert if the changes is confirmed to be vandalism right? or will I not be able to revert any article even if I see destructive edit [[User:Luwanglinux|<span style="color:red">&#x1f432;</span> <span style="color: blue">ꯂꯨꯋꯥꯪ</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Luwanglinux|<span style="color:green">ꯋꯥ ꯍꯥꯏꯐꯝ (talk) </span>]]</sup> 19:32, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

== Concern with an editor ==

{{user|Varenx101}}

This editor has been edit warring over 3 articles for over a week(including logging out to continue edit warring)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/106.201.124.71]. Considering this editor has chosen not to use the talk page, there is no way to understand why they are removing references and referenced information.

The 3 articles are:
*[[Maurya Empire]]
*[[List of largest empires in India]]
*[[Gupta Empire]]

Perhaps you can help with this issue? --[[User:Kansas Bear|Kansas Bear]] ([[User talk:Kansas Bear|talk]]) 01:49, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

Hello, back in January 2017 you semi-protected [[TVXQ]] to indefinite. However, nowadays I don't think semi is necessary anymore given the relatively low level of editing on the page. <span style="background:deepskyblue;padding:0.5px 10px;font-size:14px">[[User:Nkon21|<span style="color:azure">ɴᴋᴏɴ21</span>]] <span style="color:navy;letter-spacing:-2px">❯❯❯</span> [[User talk:Nkon21|<span style="color:#E4E4E2">talk</span>]]</span> 21:15, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

This user named [[User:Srijanx22|Srijanx22]] appears to be a part of Modi's PR machinery, and is repeatedly removing [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=COVID-19_pandemic_in_India&diff=prev&oldid=1023075387] the facts related to criticism of Modi holding election rallies - which in fact made the situation worse in the country. This is a fact which the readers must know. This user Srijanx22 is engaging in edit warring.

Update regarding Topic-Ban Observance

[edit]

I once again momentarily forgot about my lede image ban and reverted a change to a picture I had uploaded as the lede image for Hideki Tojo. It literally occurred to me at the last moment before making said revert that what I was about to do might violate my topic ban. However, by the time it fully registered, the change had already been made. I have since reverted said change. While I am inclined to ask you to show leniency, I realize I asked you to dismiss a similar occurence around a month ago so I will leave it to your discretion regarding whether further sanctions are warranted.
