Big Brother revert

Hey, what's the deal?

Was my edit not constructive? I don't understand why this was reverted. Clearly an issue of personal taste rather than a table technicality. — Preceding unsigned comment added by King1559 (talk • contribs) 02:06, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

It has more to do with the fact that there is a discussion for this on the BB16 talk page that no one seems to want to contribute to. I've listed my reasoning on there for why it should be formatted the way it has been done. It stretches beyond personal taste. You can read it there and debate your opinion if you'd like.

Big Brother revert 2

Hey, just wondering about your reversion of my last two edits on Big Brother 16 (as seen here); the voting history table was made with consensus, and the one about the Head of Household/Battle of the Block twist was made to clarify the twist instead of rehashing the "HoH isn't necessarily safe!" tease that ultimately reveals nothing. Just wondering, since you made no edit summary. - Katanin (talk) 16:37, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Survivor: Pearl Islands. 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.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

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.

In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount and can lead to a block, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. 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.

Accept reason: Should be cleared now. Kuru (talk) 21:50, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Apologies to the admins if I'm using the wrong template. I believe my IP was blocked due to the actions of a user who created an account with a username that can't be used on Wikipedia. I'm under a shared network at an apartment complex so I imagine many editors have the same IP as me. Thanks for looking into this! BlueDevil54 (talk) 21:29, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 5

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Tennis at the 2016 Summer Olympics – Qualification, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Andrey Kuznetsov. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Stop.

I already see that you get into a lot of edit wars with other users. You asked me to explain my edits and I explained them so why are you reverting them WITHOUT AN EXPLANATION. The hypocrisy. Please stop because if you get in an edit war with me, I will win. 76.168.49.73 (talk) 08:24, 29 December 2015 (UTC)

I don't get into edit wars? I left a message on your page over a month ago asking you to refrain and you completely ignored me. I don't owe you anything. I'm not looking to start an edit war, I'm keeping the articles consistent and making them at least look nice. You use to continually edit pages to break the margins and make the articles look like crap. You can't even take the time to make an account here and actually contribute to the articles. All you do is change voting history charts to make them look worse.

None of the voting history pages have a font size set to 100%. This is to make it look nicer, since full sized text on the voting history chart looks like garbage. And putting the width at 100% allows for the chart to fill up the most space possible without breaking the margins. I really don't see why you care so much to about this and why you're trying to change something that has been the same for a long time. It makes no sense to me. Do you often go into other articles that are set up nicely and change them just because without considering the precedent or what might actually look good?
