Twinkle and RedWarn

Hello and thanks for reverting vandals. To make vandal fighting easier, have you tried installing Twinkle or RedWarn? You can simply read the pages I linked here if you wish to install these scripts so you can revert, report and warn vandals easier. Best, #prodraxis connect 04:33, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't; I'll look at the pages on how to use both. Thanks! That Tired Tarantula (talk) 04:36, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Abkhazia

i'm from abkhazia. Abkhazia is not a recognized state it is a defacto state so calling a so-called state of abkhazia is not a mistake. De jure abkhazia belongs to georgia and the un Agrees! so my correction on the flag of abkhazia page isn't incorrect. the so-called state of Abkhazia is recognized by 6 countries only — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rexvo (talkcontribs) 16:34, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I'm assuming that you made an edit that I reverted on November 23 to Flag of Abkhazia using the IP address 212.58.120.4; thank you for clarifying, but the Wikipedia page already specifies that the Republic of Abkhazia is partially recognized and self-declared. Whether or not the Republic of Abkhazia is an independent state also appears to be disputed, since what the UN says is not the ultimate authority on whether or not it is an independent state (especially since six countries recognize it), so adding in "so-called" appears subjective (Wikipedia requires everything to be neutral); therefore, I do not believe that the extra clarification is necessary. For future reference, you can sign your name by adding four tildes (the ~ symbol) in a row. Also, welcome to Wikipedia! Here are some pages that might be helpful for learning more about editing:
Feel free to ask me any questions about basic editing on my talk page (I am only saying basic editing because I have only a moderate amount of knowledge on Wikipedia's guidelines due to the limited amount of time in which I have been an editor; you can get more help with more advanced editing concepts, guidelines, and procedures by viewing pages in the complete Manual of Style and by asking editors questions at the Teahouse or the Help desk—note that the Teahouse is mainly designed and recommended for new editors). I hope that helps! That Tired Tarantula (talk) 17:19, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Disruptive editing

It is extremely disruptive to undo edits that you haven't even bothered to look at. An account three months old that does nothing but revert and warn people and doesn't bother to read the edits it is reverting looks like someone who is not here to build an encyclopaedia. 94.119.32.5 (talk) 07:33, 1 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I did look at your edit, and sure, some of that content didn't have a source right by it, but your edit summary made it seem like you thought you were reverting that content just because you didn't want or care about it being on there. Reverting edits that do not appear constructive is simply how I prefer to contribute the majority of the time; I also do some page tagging and copy editing. Anyways, please at least try to find a source for something before getting rid of it, and provide a non-subjective reason for removing encyclopedic content if you do so.

Why is it that you keep reverting back to text with incorrect and outdated information on the page we're trying to fix?
