Hello, I'm JeffSpaceman. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Prevalence of circumcision have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks.

Who gets to define what is constructive and what is not? Circumcision is a form of infant genital mutilation, consistent with the definitions of these words given by Meriam-Webster's dictionary. Being specific and clear about this practice is productive. 2600:1005:B15A:E1A3:28DF:615:B5DD:BAD5 (talk) 17:12, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'll admit that saying your edit wasn't constructive wasn't the best wording, but please stop adding it in over and over again. Discuss it on the article's talk page here. JeffSpaceman (talk) 17:16, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring

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; 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.
