Changes to History of the Russo-Turkish wars

I have reverted your many changes to History of the Russo-Turkish wars. As you can imagine, changes such as "we won" from "they won" must be discussed on the article's talk page. And you might want to review those discussions for all the 'victory'/'defeat' discussions of the past. Shenme (talk) 00:07, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In the meantime you have re-added your edits, they've been reverted by another user, and you've re-added them again. Using the Turkish Wikipedia for references is not immediately useful, as sources are supposed to be published _outside_ of Wikipedia. Plus, if I used refs from the Russian Wikipedia and in Russian, well that would be considered suspect also, yes?

For anything where nationalism could be seen to influence edits a user has too be very careful. Ever heard of the "East Sea" vs. "Sea of Japan" controversy, where every day someone changes the 'facts'. How about Arab! No Persian!? There is a long history here of conflicts over conflicts, and few here have any appetite for more of the same. Shenme (talk) 03:13, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. 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 that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
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. Materialscientist (talk) 01:42, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring at Russo-Turkish War (1676–81)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may request an unblock by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

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.

The full report is at the edit warring noticeboard. A brand-new editor like yourself (31 December) who immediately jumps into nationalist edit-warring may not be here on Wikipedia very long. Consider waiting to persuade other people before making your changes. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 21:32, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is your only warning. Please do not engage in edit warring such as what appears to be occurring at Russo-Turkish War (1676–81) and after your previous block (for the same problem) recently expired. If you continue to edit war and make edits to the article without a discussion or without consensus from those involved with the reversion of your changes, you will be blocked again for edit warring. Please review Wikipedia's guidelines on dispute resolution and follow them. Thank you. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 11:29, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Since you have continued the edit war at Russo-Turkish War (1676–81) once more claiming an Ottoman victory (while nobody else supports this) I've blocked your account for two weeks. You can be unblocked if you will agree to follow Wikipedia policy in the future. See WP:GAB for how to appeal. EdJohnston (talk) 22:33, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
