Why are you referencing me in your edit summary for this article? I have had no involvement with this article at all (and I'm neither religious nor Canadian). Colonies Chris (talk) 10:56, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Indigenous peoples of the Americas, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you have any questions, you may leave a message at article talk to keep the discussion centralized. You came and made massive changes to an established article, and then hit "undo" on two established editors of said article, with the WP:INCIVIL and inaccurate edit summary, "the only dispute here are you." Engage on the talk page before editing further. - CorbieVreccan ^☊ ☼ 22:38, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Indigenous peoples of the Americas. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges on that page. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. 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. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you. - CorbieVreccan ^☊ ☼ 22:44, 13 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
