The warning

• WP:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Avaya1 reported by User:SuperWikiLover223 (Result: Both warned)

I really don't understand how I was warned on my talk page, when all my edits (and their subsequent edit summaries) directed the user to the talk page on the article in question, where I encouraged further discussion the changes. What would have been a better solution? I seriously want to know.SuperWikiLover223 (talk) 20:09, 4 September 2019 (UTC)

Unclear why this would be a defence. Edit wars take place when people keep on reverting instead of waiting for the outcome of discussion. Discuss-while-revert isn't a useful pattern when it gets up to a total of six reverts each. If there is a question of sourcing, it may help to refer the matter to the WP:Reliable sources/Noticeboard.

page move request

Hi EdJohnston, I had requested page move protection on Delhi Dynamos FC page to stop recurring vandalism before official announcement. Now the announcement has been made and there's a request for page move, can you please look at it at Talk:Delhi Dynamos FC? Thanks. Coderzombie (talk) 04:55, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

This move is likely to be approved, but WP:RM still has one more day to go. The simplest is to let it expire normally and then I (or some other move closer) can do the honors. The club still uses the old website and the old Facebook page, so some details of the move are not complete. EdJohnston (talk) 16:43, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

After a quick search I found those sources: [1][2][3][4][5]even wikidata. Regarding your site, perhaps they did not update her profile?--User:Tomcat7 (talk) 15:54, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for finding those mentions. Do you want to add them to the article? It is often worth checking to see what Wikidata says, but it is not a reliable source. EdJohnston (talk) 16:47, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

I have added two external links.--User:Tomcat7 (talk) 21:12, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

Please give a edit warn for User:Chandy of Pakalomattom

• Chandy of Pakalomattom (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
• Mar Thoma Syrian Church (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

There's a user named Chandy of Pakalomatton I give me wasting my time at the Mar Thoma Syrian Church for the last two-three months over the classification of the Church's identity, like that user is still proclaiming its Eastern Christian due of the Syrian christian origins, despite both its website's history page seen here and even its page has contrast its claim due of his naive biases over by its own historical facts. Chad The Goatman (talk) 19:35, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

Chad, if you are having a disagreement with this editor, why is there nothing from you on his talk page? See WP:SIGN for how to sign your posts. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 19:24, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

Unfortunately yes, because he repeating undoing my and now couple another users edits for months, just over the main classification, with its only attempted to backing up his own claims, but failed due of how its using a incomplete "website" version of the Church from within a third-party site Weebly to backing up. And also I'm sorry that I forgot to used my signature for my question, so I'm sign it now. Along fine, I will try to edit warn him now, but I worry my constructive edit warning won't convince it. Chad The Goatman (talk) 19:35, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

Edit: It has respond, and it still seemly don't understand that its page is direct see its current identity as a bit different from the other Syrian Christian Churches, while still making claims its still the same Church prior to its identity reformation. And it still disruptive editing without good justification by this point with this horribly edit with "Reformed as per Holy Bible" without specifically tell what it means. Chad The Goatman (talk) 20:20, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

It seems to me that Chad and Chandy should be following the steps of WP:Dispute resolution. EdJohnston (talk) 02:36, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

I'm just try convinced this Chandy user (and also I knew from weeks ago that the user's name is definitely mock my username), just accept it and move on its not that hard if it just go to the official church's website to go the "Heritage" page that I was right, but still it (and its log-off clones of anonymous users who likely the same person, during the previous edit war) can't accepted regardless the evidence its on it's face. Chad The Goatman (talk) 03:10, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

Unfortunately your English is hard to understand. Are you producing it using a mechanical translator? EdJohnston (talk) 03:13, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

I'm suffer from Autistic Spectrum Disorder [in its worst state right now] for the occasional bad grammar, unlike that User I guess, but I just send out a a the dispute resolution noticeboard just now. Chad The Goatman (talk) 03:32, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

Other RMs

Thanks for your edit on the Bluetooth mesh networking "uncontroversial" RM. I don't contest your contesting the non-controversiality. :) I'm not convinced there's a need so much for experts, I would say there's more of a need of people familiar with how readers expect to see a difference between branded technical names versus ordinary English.

On a more immediate note, Talk:2018–19_Sudanese_protests#Requested_move_22_August_2019 and Talk:Sovereignty_Council_of_Sudan#Requested_move_21_August_2019 are waiting for uninvolved editors to close the debates. My opinion is that closing these should be easy, but I'm an involved editor, so there's no guarantee that you'll agree with me. Boud (talk) 20:04, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

I did close the one about Sovereignty Council of Sudan. The other seems like a harder question. EdJohnston (talk) 02:33, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
