Your recent editing history at List of Confederate monuments and memorials shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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. See BRD for 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Right place to discuss differences of opinion (differences of fact?) is in Talk of the article in question. Looks like another editor has already created a new section for exactly that. David notMD (talk) 22:12, 22 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

List of Confederate monuments, geographic dispersal

edit

Please join the discussion on the Talk Page for the article to help improve it.[1] While monuments to the Confederacy exist across the USA, in fact around the world, the bulk of them are concentrated in the general areas that were once the Confederate states[2]; was this the point you were trying to make? If not, then please join the discussion, thanks. C. W. Gilmore (talk) 23:59, 22 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
