September 2020

Your recent editing history at Lithuania proper 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Lithuania proper

Hi Vadzim. Further to your follow-up request to me at the Teahouse, I have done my best to understand the issues involved, and have left my view on the article talk page (here). That decision is that you should not reinstate the map and caption which is under dispute until the content discussion is complete. This is to avoid further ongoing disruption/edit warring to the article, and retains the article in the form it had prior to your edits. Now, simply to avoid more back-and-forth disruption, I need to say that if you do add it back in I might feel the need to block you for a short period of time if WP:3RR is broken. I realise you may feel this would be unfair on you, but nothing on Wikipedia is permanent, and your edit can always be added back in once it is resolved (assuming it finds in your favour).

I note that the other editor has put the map image up for deletion on Commons as a 'hoax'. My reluctance to be more assertive than this and offer immediate blocks is mainly because of my complete lack of understanding of the geographical and political issues involved. But edit-warring is edit-warring, so please avoid making things more difficult by easing back and letting the discussion evolve. As I said on the article talk page, I would want to see more explanation and citations to support your edit, so if you want to counter the accusation that the image is a hoax, or supply further citations to support your view, you should do so on the talk page- but avoid further repeats of your edits to the article please until the discussion comes to a consensus. Many thanks, Nick Moyes (talk) 20:23, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
