Welcome![edit]
Hello, EduardoJanuary, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:
You may also want to complete the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit the Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.
Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or , and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:00, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at National Liberation Army (Colombia). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. --Jamez42 (talk) 09:34, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
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 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 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.
Please have a look also at WP:BRD; your edit was reverted, discuss on talk. You editwarred to re-add text without discussion. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:11, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
Second warning[edit]
This is your second warning; please note that you can be blocked from editing if you continue to edit war. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:14, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
Third warning, 2019 Venezuelan protests[edit]
With this edit, you have again reinstated deleted text without discussion, after you were advised above to review WP:BRD. You are edit warring across multiple articles, and can be blocked. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:31, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
Final warning[edit]
You have been repeatedly asked to stop edit warring. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:19, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- How was that single revert edit warring?EduardoJanuary (talk) 15:22, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Please read WP:EDITWAR and WP:BRD. If you agree to stop editwarring, and start discussing on talk, I will not file the report for administrator intervention. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:41, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- So if I revert, its edit warring, but if you revert it is not? How exactly does that work?EduardoJanuary (talk) 16:29, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Did you read and digest the Bold-Revert-Discuss cycle? You repeatedly revert, multiple articles, multiple editors, without discussion to reach consensus. The question is, do you agree to stop reverting and start discussing? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 16:39, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, I have read WP:BRD now. How exactly was I breaching it in the above edit you have just linked? EduardoJanuary (talk) 16:45, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
- Have a look here, at the article history. Once your first revert was challenged, then (BRD) you need to work this out on article talk before you continue changing to your preferred version. I recognize that you are a new editor, and that learning Wikipedia policies and guidelines can be difficult, so I would much prefer not to submit an edit warring report. And I see that no one has linked you to an outline of Wikipedia policies, so I will next do that.
But also be aware that, if you are relying on Telesur as a source, it will be difficult for you to make balanced edits; if your source is state-backed propaganda, it is unlikely that you can make a balanced edit that won't be reverted, so realize that you will need to expand your reading base if you want to make meaningful contributions. There is almost nothing on Telesur that can't be better sourced to a third-party, independent reliable source, and your editing experience will be more productive if you seek out better sources.
The short story is, edit warring will always get you into trouble on wikipedia, and discussing on talk is usually the shortest and fastest way to get good edits accomplished. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:00, 15 February 2019 (UTC)

Sockpuppet investigation[edit]
An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Apollo The Logician, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.
