  • I am well aware of the username policy, and I believe that my username does not violate that policy. My username is neither offensive nor disruptive as you have described it. Furthermore, many editors do hate editing, yet they do it well. Editing is a skill, and to some is a job, and like any other, it can be loved, hated, enjoyed, or not enjoyed. It all boils down to personal preference. My username reflects my personal feelings towards editing, and it is inline with Wikipedia's username policy. Thank you. --Hatesediting 10:16, 24 July 2011 (BST)

August 2011 edit

 

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

  1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
  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 continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Yopie (talk) 18:50, 5 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Is this how you welcome new contributors to Wikipedia Yopie? You do the best you can Gaming the system and trying to make them look bad just because you disagree? Regarding the edit war, I did not use 3 reverts on a single page in 24 hours, so why are you placing this here? I am discussing the matter at dispute, and I am following Wikipedia's process in solving the dispute. Can you kindly point out where and when I have used 3 reverts in a single page within 24 hours? Thanks. Hatesediting 23:08, 05 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Yopie didn't say you reverted 3 times within 24 hours. The above warning is appropriate if you appear to be getting close to violating the rule. SilverCityChristmasIsland 23:11, 5 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
But I am not involved in an edit war. See my contributions and the discussion of this page List of oldest universities in continuous operation. Others (including Yopie) have violated the policy of Wikipedia by removing well-refernced materials just to further their point. All is in this Talk Hatesediting 23:19, 05 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
