User talk:Meliniki

April 2011

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Slavic dialects of Greece. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
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; 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 continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Mephistophelian (talk) 01:30, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring on Greek language articles

I've noticed that you seem to be engaged in several edit wars regarding minor alterations to multiple Greek language articles. If you're not sure what edit warring is, please check this page: WP:3RR. Perhaps you should consider discussing the changes first on the respective talk pages? Mephistophelian (talk) 01:33, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You have violated the three-revert rule. Any administrator may now choose to block your account. In the future, please make an effort to discuss your changes further, instead of edit warring. Fut.Perf. ☼ 06:04, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In a 2007 arbitration case, administrators were given the power to impose discretionary sanctions on any user editing Balkans-related articles in a disruptive way. If you engage in further inappropriate behaviour in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article/topic ban. Thank you.

Edits on the vandalism noticeboard

Hi Meliniki. I reverted your edits to the mainspace article Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism on the grounds that it was not constructive. It is not appropriate to use that page for debate. Please await the outcome of the report. Thanks. Mephistophelian (talk) 16:32, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actualy you DELETE it. Why to be one-sided?!

You have been blocked from editing for a period of three days for edit warring, as you did at Slavic-speakers of Greek Macedonia and Languages of Greece. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

You were blocked for a day for edit warring, but you repeated your changes immediately afterwards. Edit warring is not allowed, even if you are sure you are right, because it means that the article ends in the form preferred by the most obstinate edit-warrior. You must try to reach WP:Consensus with other editors; if you cannot reach consensus, use WP:Dispute resolution. Sometimes you will just have to accept that there is no consensus to make the change you want. WP:AIV is not a place to conduct content disputes. JohnCD (talk) 16:51, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
