Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Cuckold. 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. bonadea contributions talk 18:02, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The above also applies to your edits to Swinging (sexual practice). When other editors revert your edits, you need to discuss those edits on the article's talk page instead of simply restoring them. Thank you. --bonadea contributions talk 18:18, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Cuckold 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 article's 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.

The article's talk page, Talk:Cuckold, is where you discuss the changes you want to make. You have to start a discussion there and make sure that you get consensus in favour of your changes before you edit the article itself again. bonadea contributions talk 18:27, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I was unclear before

Thank you for your message on my user talk page. I'm sorry my previous messages were not clear. The article's talk page, Talk:Cuckold, is where you discuss the changes you want to make. You have to start a discussion there and make sure that you get consensus in favour of your changes before you edit the article itself again. Four different editors reverted your edits, so it's definitely a case where you have to reach an agreement on the article's talk page first. You will have to show why this self-help style book would be considered a reliable source and why an extremely long quote from it would be warranted in the article. But again, it's a discussion you need to hold on the article's talk page, not on the talk pages of individual other editors. Thank you. --bonadea contributions talk 13:34, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 16:09, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
