March 2020[edit]

Your recent editing history at 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic 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.

@HaeB: I did not revert the change I took the feedback into account to continue clarify the statement with NEW sources to address the concern then posted comment on the talk page. Again please clarify the missing information that was not clarified with the NEW sources Moneyball99 (talk) 05:42, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As I wrote on the article talk page: You have added your observation (in only somewhat different versions) four times within less than seven hours [1] [2] [3] [4] despite three different editors removing it inbetween. And contrary to your claim above, [5] was a direct revert of Goszei. I did not say that you are already technically in violation of the three-revert rule and (also considering that you appear to be a fairly new editor) was not going to ask for administrative action at this point. But you need to understand, quickly, that you need to switch to a less aggressive editing style, especially in a very high profile article like this (currently receiving a million pageviews per day).

@HaeB: I did not say I never reverted, I did so only once for lack of actionable explanation for reason which was clarify as expected by Jasper Deng. I am referring to the ones after that which were modified after feedback. Should this discussion continue on this talk page or the original one? Moneyball99 (talk) 06:15, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Article talk pages are preferable for discussing the article's content, user talk pages are better for discussing an editors's actions. Yes, I saw the change you made in reaction to one of Jasper Deng's points, but I did not see you addressing the rest of them. Similarly, as mentioned, the three citations you added after my response did not solve the NOR and UNDUE concerns. Regards, HaeB (talk) 07:02, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at User:Bondegezou.

While it was rather forward of Moneyball99 to make that edit of my user page, they did fix a dead link. I would not call it a disruptive edit. Bondegezou (talk) 07:56, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

We at Wikiproject Medicine would like to thank you for your contribution now during the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic. We are far from out of the woods with regard to the pandemic and understand that your focus may lie on coronavirus efforts.
We would still like to shine a light on our active medical community, which you are more than welcome to join. As a participant you can ask questions and get help about best practices on editing any health or medical article — on our talk-page. We are a (mostly) collegial bunch, and I do hope you feel welcome to participate. Currently there are two active communities:

Please join up!
