Welcome to Wikipedia, 808 AD! I'm I dream of horses, and I've been assigned as your mentor. About half of new Wikipedia accounts receive a mentor chosen randomly from a list of volunteers. It just means I'm here to help with anything you need! We need to have all kinds of people working together to create an online encyclopedia, so I'm glad you're here. Over time, you will figure out what you enjoy doing the most on Wikipedia.

You might have noticed that you have access to a tutorial and suggested edits. It's recommended that you take advantage of this, as it'll make learning how to edit Wikipedia easier.

If you need assistance with anything or have any questions, click on the "Get editing help" button on the bottom right corner of your screen. This will open up a module with links to help pages and a place to ask me questions. You can also ask me questions directly on my talk page, or go here to get help from the wider community.

December 2023[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Regency of Algiers. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. 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.

Points to note:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
  2. 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 and 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. M.Bitton (talk) 18:01, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Regency of Algiers 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; read about 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.

Do not move articles without discussion and consensus, as you did at Saadian invasion of the Songhai Empire. The process to follow for requesting a move is outlined at WP:RM. Moving articles on your own should only happen when fixing typos or obvious errors. R Prazeres (talk) 18:14, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is the widely used term for indicating the invasion/conquest. 808 AD (talk) 18:21, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is no widely used term, because it's a descriptive title, and the current title is more precise. Regardless of that, go through a WP:RM and present your arguments there. Unexplained page moves are disruptive. R Prazeres (talk) 18:35, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thank you for the clarification. My intention wasn't to disrupt the article. 808 AD (talk) 18:41, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Also: Please do not mark edits as "minor" unless you are merely fixing a typo or format error. Any edit that adds, removes, or changes substantial content is not a minor edit. Please see Help:Minor edit. Thanks, R Prazeres (talk) 18:17, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
