June 2020[edit]
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at 89 (MBTA bus). 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. 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. signed, Rosguill talk 20:02, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to 89 (MBTA bus), did not appear constructive and has 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 the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Please do not remove a redirect just to replace it with the same information that is in the target. To expand beyond a redirect, topics should havereliable sources that demonstrate notability. If you believe that this topic meets that criteria, consider creating it first at Draft:89 (MBTA bus) and moving it into mainspace with the Articles for Creation process.
