Information icon Hello, I'm Peaceray. Your recent edit(s) to the page Coldplay appear to have added incorrect information, so they have been reverted for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ]]Guy Berryman]] is Scottish, therefore "British" is mor apt than "English".

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for trying to keep Wikipedia free of vandalism. However, one or more edits you labeled as vandalism, such as the edit at Lord Byron, are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can discourage editors. Please see what is not vandalism for more information on what is and is not considered vandalism. Thank you. Aoidh (talk) 06:39, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Lord Byron. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. 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.

Points to note:

  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.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and 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. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Aoidh (talk) 10:18, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]


Information icon Hi English Baroque! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Lord Byron several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree at Talk:Lord Byron, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Please review that guidance carefully. What you are reverting is not vandalism, as described at WP:VANDAL; you are not exempt from the edit warring restrictions. Use the article talk page..

Information icon Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to William Shakespeare. Your edits do not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. Thank you. General Ization Talk 02:00, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hi English Baroque! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of Bertrand Russell several times.
