Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Charles J. Chaput, 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. This was discussed on the talk page already. You don't get to arbitrarily change it because you don't agree with the talk page discussion. Meters (talk) 03:20, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Charles J. Chaput. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Per WP:BRD we need to discuss this edit onthe talk page. Your explanation in your first summary does not supersede the apparent consensus reached the first time this was discussed, and your comment on the talk page that you had left a summary explanation is not a talk page discussion and consensus. The header should stay as is until (and if) a new consensus is reached to change it. Meters (talk) 04:19, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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 BRD 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 your 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. --ChiveFungi (talk) 15:15, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
