June 2024

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Culture of Azerbaijan. 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. MacAddct1984 17:58, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Macaddct1984, Thank you for reminding me. Since the person using similar IP addresses refused my requests to discuss and create a username, I ended up in this edit war. My question is, what will happen if this person is indeed guilty? They can simply reset their receiver and continue this dispute.

Regarding the reversion, my instructions were clear. This person openly changed sourced content according to their preferences. After reviewing both sources, I found the changes were unrelated to the topic and only removed the parts they added. I retained all other contributions.

What is Misplaced Pages's policy on individuals hiding behind IP addresses, refusing to communicate, or ignoring facts as seen in this war? I have limited time and cannot monitor every IP address this person uses to make disruptive edits.

I would like to state that I am new here and still learning. I will strive to follow guidelines more closely in the future. Göycen (talk) 21:51, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

My question is, what will happen if this person is indeed guilty? They can simply reset their receiver and continue this dispute. - If they're blocked, may still be able to edit anonymously under a different IP, however that's still a form of block evasion and not tolerated, just like creating a new username wouldn't be tolerated. Regarding the reversion, my instructions were clear. This person openly changed sourced content according to their preferences. After reviewing both sources, I found the changes were unrelated to the topic and only removed the parts they added. I retained all other contributions - As long as it isn't blatant vandalism, the 3-revert rule applies. Even if you think you're clearly in the right, it needs to be discussed on the article's talk page (which I see you've begun). While it may be frustrating, even disruptive editing is not vandalism. What is Misplaced Pages's policy on individuals hiding behind IP addresses, refusing to communicate, or ignoring facts as seen in this war? I have limited time and cannot monitor every IP address this person uses to make disruptive edits. The best practice is laid out on Misplaced Pages:Dispute resolution. It's not your responsibility to monitor IP edits, but you can certainly enlist the feedback of other users or, if it comes to it, and admin on the noticeboards. -- MacAddct1984 23:13, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

Could you possibly clarify? I have nothing to do with the linked page. Göycen (talk) 23:10, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
