Copying within Misplaced Pages requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Misplaced Pages. It appears that you copied or moved text from Taliban into Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. While you are welcome to re-use Misplaced Pages's content, here or elsewhere, Misplaced Pages's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Misplaced Pages, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from ]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Misplaced Pages:Copying within Misplaced Pages. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 00:55, 19 August 2021 (UTC)

Single edits over multiple paragraphs

Hi KlayCax. I see that you're new to Misplaced Pages. I'm noting that you're editing large swaths over multiple sections and paragraphs with just one edit. Would you mind putting that into multiple smaller, bite-sized edits in the future, please? It makes it easier to go over your changes. I'm not aware of a rule on this, heck I could be completely wrong, put if you could do that I'd appreciate it. Thanks :)Stix1776 (talk) 13:03, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

KlayCax Can you please respond to this message, because I'm starting to get frustrated at reading and undoing your massive edits. Thanks Stix1776 (talk) 17:07, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

I'll respond on the circumcision talk page. KlayCax (talk)

I second what Stix1776 said, reviewing 10 edits that all only change a couple words when it could be done in one single edit is difficult and somewhat annoying. ― Tuna _SurprisesPlease 20:38, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Please read the sources before editing

Hi KlayCax. I just spotted the edits that you made in Circumcision and law. I read through the sources and they don't say what you're asserting. Please read through the sources carefully and only modify articles with text that's represented by the source. As I mentioned in the Circumcision talk page, misrepresenting sourced text is likely going to earn you a block from Misplaced Pages.Stix1776 (talk) 06:52, 30 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi @KlayCax:, there's vigorous discussion about your edits in the talk page. Can you please engage with the discussion before removing sourced content. Thanks. Stix1776 (talk) 02:43, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

I strongly advise you, KlayCax to cease editing Circumcision and open a discussion on the talk page and get consensus for your edits. If you continue, it's likely to result in a block from the article or possibly the site. CUPIDICAE💕 14:08, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Why did you move sourced material to the lead, just to "trim" the lead?

I KlayCax. I noticed that you moved ethical considerations up to the lead in this diff , only to later remove the material as trimming the lead 10 days later . I'm not sure if that was intentional, but please try not to move material to the lead just to delete it later.Stix1776 (talk) 14:28, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Circumcision and Tendentious editing

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Circumcision. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
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 and 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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. It's generally considered bad form to revert back to defend your own edits. Please use the talk pages and explain why you removed sourced text from the body.Stix1776 (talk) 11:05, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

This reverts , were defending your deletions here , and here . May I remind you that you were reverting against multiple editors here promising to file a report at WP:HSOCK, which never happened.Stix1776 (talk) 11:12, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

@KlayCax: also please stop making major edits as a minor edit. Adding and subtracting huge portions of the text is definitely not minor.Stix1776 (talk) 11:59, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

AE Report

I wanted to make you aware of a report I opened up at the Arbitration enforcement noticeboard, since the evidence I supplied was primarily attacks on you. You can find it at Misplaced Pages:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement#Stix1776. If you decide to comment there, I encourage you to keep the focus on behavioral matters and to avoid commenting on content disputes as much as possible. MrOllie (talk) 12:56, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
