[[File:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|left|alt=Stop icon]] Your recent editing history at [[:Fantastic Four (2015 film)]] shows that you are currently engaged in an [[Wikipedia:Edit warring|edit war]]; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to work toward making a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about [[WP:EPTALK|how this is done]]. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]].

'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''&mdash;especially if you violate the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Help:Reverting|reverts]] on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;'''even if you do not violate the three-revert rule'''&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.<!-- Template:uw-3rr --> [[User:Sjones23|Lord Sjones23]] ([[User talk:Sjones23|talk]] - [[User:Sjones23/Wikipedia contributions|contributions]]) 07:38, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

:Oh stop it. You're the one who keeps on reverting it for no reason, I haven't seen any other editor chime in except for you.

What you added reads like spin. It’s not appropriate for the lead. Given that the movie flopped, and wasn’t necessarily that big a hit with audiences nor critics, it’s just not that [[WP:NOTABLE]]. Be careful not to engage in [[WP:EDITORIALIZING]]. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/2601:282:8100:32A0:C505:9174:DF45:1F25|2601:282:8100:32A0:C505:9174:DF45:1F25]] ([[User talk:2601:282:8100:32A0:C505:9174:DF45:1F25#top|talk]]) 15:33, 31 August 2023 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Picture removals from ''[[Logan (film)|Logan]]'' ==

Hello,

I understand why you removed my photo of the movie theater from the ''Logan'' page (although I do think it at least had some value in illustrating that ''Logan'' had a strong opening weekend), but why did you (1) feel the need to explicitly say it was "pointless", which was an unnecessary value judgment (saying "unnecessary", "redundant", or "extraneous" would have shown some professional courtesy, at least), and (2) why did you remove the photo of Ryan Reynolds? The photo was appropriate to illustrate the subject of that section, and Reynolds' efforts in convincing Jackman to reprise the role are noteworthy, even if Jackman made the final decision to return.

Thank you,<br> [[User:JohnSon12a|JohnSon12a]] ([[User talk:JohnSon12a|talk]]) 21:06, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

==Disambiguation link notification for December 5==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited [[Mark Rolston]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[DC]]<!-- ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Mark_Rolston check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Mark_Rolston?client=notify fix with Dab solver])-->. Such links are [[WP:INTDABLINK|usually incorrect]], since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].)</small>
