User talk:TradingJihadist

August 2016

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. 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.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

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; 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. Acroterion (talk) 00:42, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

How about addressing the other editor's edits and false claims? They didn't give a good reason to remove content. TradingJihadist (talk) 00:51, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

You're not the God-Emperor of the article. You're also not a new editor, and you may not posit conspiracies in Wikipedia's voice. Concerns about such phrasing and sourcing are valid objections per WP:BLP, but I expect you know that already. Acroterion (talk) 01:36, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

I've slightly rephrased the content to better reflect the sources. By that, I simply mean to have the courtesy to let others know I'm the creator, that's all. TradingJihadist (talk) 01:41, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

The rephrasing helps. You are owed no special courtesy or privilege by creating the article, and you can expect it to be edited, reviewed and altered by other editors. Acroterion (talk) 01:46, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

You misunderstand. I'm not claiming any privileges by being the creator. I'm just letting people in that noticeboard know that I'm the creator. TradingJihadist (talk) 02:00, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Not a productive way to do it. Acroterion (talk) 02:06, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

Polite inquiry

For a new user, you are certainly stirring up quite a mess. What are you trying to do? Have you ever edited here before? --John (talk) 00:11, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

I'm just trying to contribute and write articles. But it seems hard to do that without attracting all sorts of unwanted attention. All I've done is create an article and that seems to have caused a lot of problems for some reason. I've been editing anonymously for years. TradingJihadist (talk) 00:22, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

Does your previous editing include biographies? Do you have any idea what you are doing wrong? --John (talk) 00:35, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
