[edit]
Your recent editing history 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
Do not keep adding the same mistake to the same page, when someone is persistently telling you it is wrong. You risk being blocked if you continue. Start a discussion on the talk page if you feel you want to talk about it. Bretonbanquet (talk) 20:12, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- My edits are not wrong, I am changing them write. I am also checking it as I go along on other websites. I don’t know why you are saying this to me. I’ve just joined wiki and I am not putting up with these comments or I will complain to Wikipedia. All my edits I have checked on other websites (as I said before). I do not wish to engage in a ‘edit war’. I am changing it so it it right so Wikipedia can be more reliable. Do not say this again.
- Many thanks, High jeffbob. High jeffbob (talk) 20:20, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- It doesn't work like that. Either you discuss your edits when someone asks, or you risk being blocked. It's really very simple. Your edits are incorrect, and you really should listen to people when they tell you that. Bretonbanquet (talk) 20:23, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
- As has been explained to you several times the Detroit Grand Prix is different to the United States Grand Prix.
