Edit warring

edit

Thank you for this message[1]. Having checked your contributions, is there any special reason you have refrained from passing the same message to User:Synthwave.94? It is absurd to assume that you didn't spot his reverts yet I see don't see any messages at his talk. In addition, why have you even messaged me with a warning when you have become involved? To message both of us is one thing. To message one of us and ignore the other is somewhat WP:TE, but to do all this plus involve yourself is both WP:TE and WP:DE. At this point, I invite you to either self-revert while we discuss it on the talk, and/or deliver the same message to Synthwave. Dumfounded watsD (talk) 23:44, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

I've opened a discussion at the talk page, I invite you to participate. If you honestly think I've done something wrong I suggest you take me to WP:ANI. I didn't give the other user the warning, as I don't tend to template regulars. Dbrodbeck (talk) 23:48, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
That said, you ought to read WP:BOOMERANG before going to ANI. Dbrodbeck (talk) 23:56, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Dumfounded watsD (talk) 00:12, 11 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

ANI Notice

edit

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding warning somebody about edit warring I guess?. The thread is Dbrodbeck. The discussion is about the topic Seek & Destroy. Thank you. AlexEng(TALK) 00:14, 11 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the note. Dbrodbeck (talk) 00:14, 11 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
Sorry for the double-notice. I thought that the complainant neglected to inform you, but I was just too hasty. AlexEng(TALK) 00:16, 11 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
No worries, I just noticed it myself. Thanks! Dbrodbeck (talk) 00:18, 11 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Mark Dice

edit
 

Your recent editing history at Mark Dice 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. 2601:183:8202:3D81:498A:6554:5A3F:CF9B (talk) 18:04, 10 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

That's hilarious. One revert is not edit warring. Dbrodbeck (talk) 18:08, 10 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
IN a way my fault, I left one of these on his talk page, and he is now throwing them about.Slatersteven (talk) 18:14, 10 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
Nah, not your fault. (S)he also left one for a person who didn't even revert. It's funny. Dbrodbeck (talk) 18:21, 10 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
We should get Doug Weller, the head editor of wikipedia, to deal with it.... Dbrodbeck (talk) 19:30, 10 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi,

The Jean Chrétien WP page is way too long with the version you reverted to. Please consider supporting the shorter version as it is more readable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.119.233.252 (talk) 04:53, 2 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

Unconstructive edit on a Tesla talk page

edit

Hello Dbrodbeck. Thank you for your private message. I was trying to point out on constant problem that is happening on Nikola Tesla article. I have no problems if someone is trying to start a discussion to change something in the article,but it should be done in a civilised manner without showing any animocity towards any other nation or a individual. That is why I interfered and put some notes in someone others comment. The responce I received was automatic response without any solution the problem. Since you pointed out to me that my type of behaviour is unconstructive ,can you please help me how to disolve the issue, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.138.3.166 (talk) 14:24, 28 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Edit Warring

edit
 

Your recent editing history 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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle 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 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

There has been no other opposition to critisism, please stop edit warring. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Permareperwiki1664 (talkcontribs) 14:49, 28 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Happy holidays!

Happy New Year!

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year, Dbrodbeck!

The other day, I was having a conversation with someone about holiday cards and social media. It occurred to me that, in the years since I left Facebook, the site I use most to communicate with people I like isn't actually a social media site at all. If you're receiving this, it's pretty likely I've talked with you more recently than I have my distant relatives and college friends on FB, at very least, and we may have even collaborated on something useful. So here's a holiday "card", Wikipedia friend. :) Hope the next couple weeks bring some fun and/or rest. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 18:12, 22 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thanks so much for this. It's been ages! I still think about the Chaneyverse now and then.... Happy holidays to you and yours as well! Dbrodbeck (talk) 19:43, 22 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
