Edit-warring
[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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.)

Noted, I acknowledge my error and I will withdraw from this argument for now to allow calmer heads to prevail. Skenu (talk) 15:48, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks. That is a generic template and to be clear, I find it hard to leave incorrect information in the article and also 'allow' someone ignoring a consensus. However as a matter of integrity I had to flag this issue also. Mark83 (talk) 16:01, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
You are absolutely correct to call me out on it, firstly the system is nothing without an equality of approach but also I actually needed it. I'd got into a cycle of reverting without thinking about why it might be happening, what the broader effect might be and looking at alternatives. Thanks. Skenu (talk) 19:53, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
Edit warring at Air transport of the British royal family and government
[edit]Hello User:Skenu. You've been warned for edit warring at Air transport of the British royal family and government per a complaint at the edit warring noticeboard. You may be blocked if you revert the article again before obtaining a consensus in your favor on the article talk page. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 20:14, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
Thank you User:EdJohnston I accept the warning and will follow the advice offered here and elsewhere. I'm sorry that my actions contributed to this situation and required time and resource from others to attempt to resolve. Skenu (talk) 21:44, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
