We hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~.

March 2013

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on M4 motorway. 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.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. –

I'd suggest you take advice from User:The Rambling Man on how to de-escalate a tense stand-off between disputing editors. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:42, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What stand-off? Which editors? Why? Our other kid (talk) 22:45, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, on second thoughts, perhaps you definitely shouldn't be bothered. Improving the article is the main aim and you seem to be interested in being constructive. It's sometimes a good idea to offer suggestions for improvements, instead of just deleting what other editors have added and calling them names. I'm very surprised to see The Rambling Man editing so aggressively here. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:53, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't deleted what other editors have added or called them names. I'm trying to understand the timeline - nothing more. There seems no will to explain or clarify anything. Our other kid (talk) 23:07, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have tried to explain, in response to your questions on the article Talk Page, my own personal interpretation of the graphic. Apologies if you thought my suggestions above were accusations. I must have been getting your edits mixed up with those of another editor. You seem to be very familiar with wikipedia tools for a newly registered user.Martinevans123 (talk) 23:39, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I try my best! Our other kid (talk) 23:43, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
