September 2015[edit]

Your recent editing history at Lexus RX 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 get 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.

Okay but do understand it's Thomas.W who began this edit war not I. He came in and changed the infoboxes for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation Lexus RX while the 4th generation was still in dispute. As such he should be blocked as well.Hoojaboard (talk) 21:41, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring and violating the three-revert rule, as you did at Lexus RX. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  Bbb23 (talk) 20:41, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Thomas.W interjected himself into the Lexus RX article. He changed the 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation infoboxes, last time he edited the Lexus RX article was December 2013 [1]Hoojaboard (talk) 20:50, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi, Hoojaboard, even if you think that you right still you are not suppose to edit war. Read WP:Edit warring. Another thing to notice is that since your 2nd edit of life you are actively engaged in said article, maybe you were editing as IP for long time, but usually such accounts are suspected as sock of any other user or alternative account. Anyway, block is of just 24 hours, it is not big deal. --Human3015TALK  21:08, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
