November 2017[edit]

Your recent editing history at List of terrorist incidents in August 2017 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.

Hello, I'm HastyBriar321. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on List of terrorist incidents in August 2017, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. This is in regards to this edit. Thank you!

Yes, you deleted Charlottesville attack 4 times with no valid reason and I warned you. I've made a report in the Administrator's noticeboard. Givibidou (talk) 22:41, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How is WP:BLPCRIME not a valid reason? I've thrice linked it in my edit summaries and advised you to read it. HastyBriar321 (talk) 23:01, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been blocked indefinitely. LOL. Givibidou (talk) 17:25, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I consider that your comment on my talk page falls within WP:NPA specifically "Comment on content, not on the contributor." and "Accusations about personal behavior that lack evidence. Serious accusations require serious evidence.", specifically because I know you know I did leave a valid reason on my edit. I suggest you remove your comment on my talk page. I also suggest you refrain from these sorts of comments on my talk page. JGDiaz (talk) 23:33, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What personal attack? I commented your edit, like I did for HastyBriar321, for the same reason, and he got indefinitely blocked. If you want to be blocked, carry on. Givibidou (talk) 13:39, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Demographics of France[edit]

Can you reply on my reponse and questions on User talk:217.121.17.136? Kind regards 217.121.17.136 (talk) 10:41, 19 February 2022 (UTC) Why do you not respond? It is easy to revert, so please explain yourself.217.121.17.136 (talk) 08:41, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Average population" refer to the estimated mid-year population, not to the population at the beginning of the year. Data on external migration cannot be made on the basis of population data in the middle of the year. Your methodology is incorrect and therefore your data is incrorrect.

Capitalization[edit]

Hi! Given your non-capitalization of “swiss” on your user page, you may not be aware that English capitalizes all demonyms and nationalities regardless of anything else. You also may not be aware that it is standard practice in Ukrainian telegram channels to refrain from capitalizing “russian”, and as such, failing to capitalize “Russian” in accordance with standard English conventions could introduce the appearance of POV. Cheers, RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 11:00, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks for the correction. Givibidou (talk) 11:02, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

== Welcome! ==

Hi Givibidou! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay.

I've noticed that you've expressed an interest in the Arab–Israeli conflict. Unfortunately, due to a history of conflict and disruptive editing it has been designated a contentious topic and is subject to some strict rules.

The rule that affects you most as a new or IP editor is the prohibition on making any edit related to the Arab–Israel conflict unless you are logged into an account and that account is at least 30 days old and has made at least 500 edits.

This prohibition is broadly construed, so it includes edits such as adding the reaction of a public figure concerning the conflict to their article or noting the position of a company or organization as it relates to the conflict.

The exception to this rule is that you may request a specific change to an article on the talk page of that article or at this page. Please ensure that your requested edit complies with our neutral point of view and reliable sourcing policies, and if the edit is about a living person our policies on biographies of living people as well.

Any edits you make contrary to these rules are likely to be reverted, and repeated violations can lead to you being blocked from editing.
