Your recent editing history at Salvatore Pais shows that you are currently engaged in an 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 talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three 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—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

That was your third revert today. Enix150 (talk) 03:37, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And your fourth revert, so I've filed something at the relevant noticeboard. MrOllie (talk) 03:42, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Third* Nice try though. Enix150 (talk) 05:15, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

George Mallory

With all due respect MrOllie that article that I have written is one of the greatest, ever written on Wikipedia. It's by far, better than most Good Articles. It's not for you to say, passively "oh it's too long," or any anyone else. A lot of work went into that article. It is not too long. You may learn something if you read it. This is an improved version. The old version was full of factual inaccuracies. It's no wonder that so many people don't want to edit Wikipedia at this time. You folks are pushing away good editors with a type of totalitarianism, which is not welcome in the democratic world that civil people live in. I've wasted enough time with this nonsense. Absolutely ridiculous thing to do, to a person who put so much time and energy into this. It's just unforgivable, insulting, embarrassing, and ignorant. The article is long because this explorers life story is and all the facts pertinent to it are included. It's not my issue, if ITS' TOO GOOD FOR WIKIPEDIA. WHICH IT IS!!

With all due respect, telling people to 'fuck off' in edit summaries and ranting on people's user talk pages is not a substitute for engaging on the article talk page to calmly discuss your edits with other people. - MrOllie (talk) 18:02, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Just look at the article's talk page. Good article status does require a concise portrayal of information, which I feel is not present due to the reasons I have outlined. I mean, the article was longer than the United States article, which was considered too long. It's not unreasonable to think that an article about George Mallory being longer than a superpower is kind of strange. Maxx-♥ talk and coffee ☕ 18:38, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
What's strange about it? Did you ever read "Into The Silence" The great war Mallory and the conquest of Everest? I was in touch with the author and outlined the mistakes in the book, and the author was very thankful. (respect privacy) more than you would get here! Is this book too long? Perhaps you should tell the author who bought over 500 books to write this masterpiece, just like mine. Is this article too long? Boris Johnson? Where is the long-article message template on that? Or these? Long pages What does it matter if it's longer than the United States article or any other for that matter? It's written in my good style, and that is what is important. It took ten long months ... I don't care what you people think. What's wrong with a long article? EXACTLY NOTHING. You should be thanking people for fine edits, not criticising them for that kind of thing, which drives people away. Being jealous gets you nowhere. The Bible is long; want to criticise that? There are other articles on Wikipedia that are much longer than George Mallory (the great explorer that he was). He's got more brass than BJ? Wikipedia is littered with factual errors. The article is long because that is the way it is. Life stories are long. My great article deserves a book. There has never in history been such a concise, detailed, and factually correct biography written about one of the great explorers. Its genius. Never before in such detail have all the facts about Mallory's life been assembled in one place. It is 100 years of history taken from 50 books, 40 journals, and other documents. Every sentence is referenced. It's concise and brilliant. Have respect for others great work. Zephronion (talk) 20:11, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Boris Johnson probably is too long.
It's written in my good style, and that is what is important. No, this is part of the problem. I'm worried that you feel as though you own the article in some way. Length isn't an inherent problem, assuming the subject matter deserves it. However, two main elements come to mind: readability and importance of information. The readability of the article was somewhat hindered by technical information. But the main problem was importance of information. A lot of the details added were somewhat trivial for a general understanding of the topic and was given undue weight.
If you do want to write a book on the subject, I would highly encourage you to do so. You clearly care and know a lot about this. Maxx-♥ talk and coffee ☕ 20:34, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
My user talk page is not the place to discuss this. Direct any follow up to article talk. MrOllie (talk) 20:53, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Its not a rant in anyway, its how I feel and I'm pretty certain not the only one. I didn't think people were so sensitive to the truth. Now have a good day sir!! Zephronion (talk) 18:10, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

King Abdullah II

A reference/ citation was removed, on the basis of non-neutrality/POV. I do not think that this was justified. It just stated that he is generally held in high regard. I'm not sure your move was warranted. 218.48.143.71 (talk) 14:57, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Popularity is discussed in the 4th paragraph, so it was both redundant and non-neutral. We're not going to turn the article into a hagiography MrOllie (talk) 15:04, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I understand our policy about external links, but those links I added are not behind paywall, nor contain ads or malware Stephen Laberge is know in the world of lucid dreaming an article is directly connected to lucid dreaming also lucidity.com is used before in article so I can't understand reason of this. Thanks for the answer. Robercik101 (talk) 19:18, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Spider-Man DOES have Superhuman speed

Look, I see that you delete "speed" in Spider-Man page, but let me tell you this; Spider-Man does have superhuman speed! it was mentioned that he has proportionate strength, "speed", and agility of a spider! If Spider-Man doesn't have superhuman speed, the comic wouldn't mention the proportionate strength "speed" and agility of a spider, it says in Spectacular Spider-Man comic where Spidey explains his origin to Black Cat, and the word I mention speed is in there. If you still don't believe me; look and read in the link https://readcomiconline.li/Comic/The-Spectacular-Spider-Man-1976/Issue-87?id=19204. I have proof. Aaeliaba (talk) 12:00, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You are edit warring to include content that is just plain wrong. Stop. MrOllie (talk) 18:13, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
