Editing dispute

This page has been subject to a relative edit conflict which has been transpiring for quite a while now. I do acknowledging that it's my edits that is in question, but the other party who constantly keeps reverting and deleting my edits is not providing a reason why. The other party is even going as far as to create multiple accounts just to keep doing the same thing over and over again resulting in the constant blocking of the account, which I've noticed for a while has a history of edit warring. It seems to me that the other party simply just does not agree with it and resorts to simply just deleting the whole thing rather than disuss it talk as told. That is my side of the story @Drmies. 76.98.77.243 (talk) 03:18, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. That one is blocked now (thank you Izno--Favonian, I'm wondering if this isn't the return of someone we used to deal with on a regular basis), but they weren't the only one: User:Huggums537 has already been active. And what I saw you do was paste and then delete huge chunks of content--what does "extra section" mean? I will unprotect the article, but you need to be more careful in your edits and more complete in your edit summaries. Drmies (talk) 03:26, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- @Drmies Thanks. When I wrote "extra section," that was because I realized that a few of the main sections was repeated and that I placed in the same sections by accident when reinserting the content that the other party constantly kept deleting. I do apologize for that, I will be mindful and more careful with my words and to be specific on what I'm doing when I edit. 76.98.77.243 (talk) 03:36, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - OK. Please ping me or Izno if that editor returns. Drmies (talk) 03:37, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Drmies Ok. I will ping you guys if that editor comes back. Sorry for all the trouble. 76.98.78.255 (talk) 13:11, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      - No problem--at least now I know what's going on. That's also why edit summaries and talk page posts are so important: I had no idea there was socking happening here. Take care, Drmies (talk) 13:13, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        @Drmies Hello Good afternoon, just one quick question. If I re-arranged the wording for the removed content to be more proficient, can it be re-added? 76.98.77.158 (talk) 16:37, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        Ha, I'm not here to judge content, really--do what you want to do, but do it in a way that makes sense to other editors too. Like, this is clear, to me anyway. Take care, Drmies (talk) 17:31, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        @Drmies Good morning, I just wanted to let you know that the editor is still back at it again. But this time it looks like he's using an IP address to be slick. It's 37.153.89.223 and he just deleted my edits again. 76.98.79.229 (talk) 13:24, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Hey there, @Drmies. Long time no see. I played no part in all this. I just happened to pick this random article to do some gnomish editing and then took it off my watchlist according to my new "contribute and let go" philosophy that I apply to most of my editing. I had no idea any of this was going on until you alerted me, but thanks for the ping. Good to see you again. Huggums537 (talk) 16:18, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - Likewise, Huggums537--been a while. No, I know you were not involved in that mess, but you are a seasoned editor, and if you look over the IP's edits perhaps you see what I see: good will but some issues with the prose, and who knows, maybe you can help. No obligations here. Take care! Drmies (talk) 16:25, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - I do see that, but what really caught my attention was the fact that you also pinged @Izno and every time I see that name it reminds me of one of my favorite YouTube comedians named Ismo Leikola. The spelling might be slightly different, but according to "research" that doesn't matter. Huggums537 (talk) 17:25, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
