[edit]Your recent editing history at Wonkette shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Important Notice
[edit]This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Wonkette
[edit]Although your source looks good, it makes no sense. See[1] - obviously left of centre, but not far left or "extreme left" as adfontesmedia calls it. Lots of satire too. I've taken this to WP:RSN where we discuss sources. Doug Weller talk 14:08, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
Wonkette again
[edit]Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Wonkette, you may be blocked from editing. Doug Weller talk 08:42, 15 July 2020 (UTC)\
There is a consensus at WP:RSN#Wonkette that your edit is wrong. Being anti-Trump or anti-Nazi doesn't make anything far left. I need to be clear about this - although I won't block you from editing or ban you from American politics, one of those is going to happen if you keep going down this road. My advice is to either stop or convince the editors at RSN (reliable sources noticeboard) that they are wrong. Doug Weller talk 08:48, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
Username issue
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that your username, "Grandwizardman67", may not meet Wikipedia's username policy because an obvious link with KKK. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you.
