editYour recent editing history at Taiwan 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 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 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.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 14:20, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

edit Please stop your disruptive editing.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, 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, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at East Asia, you may be blocked from editing. Citobun (talk) 14:57, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
Wikipedia is proud of being netrual in politics issues. Therefore, I don’t think we should try to get consensus between several editors about whether Wikipedia should support one side or the other side. Instead, if the consensus between both the sides of governments exists, it’s better to use it. In fact I think the opinions of billions of people is more important than the opinions of several single editors. Therefore, using the consensus of both governments to stay netrual is better than supporting either government’s claim.PE fans (talk) 18:27, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

edit Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at East Asia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at East Asia, you may be blocked from editing. General Ization Talk 05:06, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
Wikipedia is proud of being a democratic society maintaining netrual point of view. Please stop being deviation to either side of disruption.PE fans (talk) 05:09, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- This issue has already been discussed with you, and these edits have already been rejected. Continue to make these changes without achieving consensus (which you have not attempted to achieve) and you will be blocked for disruptive editing. General Ization Talk 05:11, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- By the way, Wikipedia is not a democracy, and does not claim to be. Please stop blathering about democracy, as I see you have done on this page before. We operate by consensus here, and at this point your edits are not supported by consensus. General Ization Talk 05:17, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
Pleas look at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=East_Asia&type=revision&diff=854406946&oldid=854404279 and https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=East_Asia&type=revision&diff=843326110&oldid=843322820 to see how I fight against one side of user saying that Taiwan is part of China. On the other hands, my edit today fight against the other side of user saying that Taiwan is not part of China. Please understand that East Asia has complicated sovereignty disruptions. So it is extremely hard to stay neutral point of view. In this process, using geographic word “Mainland China” is a good choice because it is accepted by both PRC and ROC.

- @General Ization: There are two sides of editors. What I did was to revert their point of view by netrual point of view. My naive hope is that both of them will make a concession and have a consensus on my version. However, it turns out that both sides disagree and changes netrual point view to their point of view. I’m tired for being involved in this issue. Perhaps I should return to editing tennis articles. If you are still willing to deal with this hard work, then I wish you good luck. PE fans (talk) 06:20, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- I am not the person from whom you need to seek consensus, and here on your talk page is not the place to seek it. Please post on the Talk page of the article in question, including your argument for making the rejected change, where other editors of that article will see it. Alternatively, begin an RfC on the Talk page of a relevant article (e.g., Talk:China) where the issue can be discussed and a conclusion reached that can be referenced by the editors of multiple articles. General Ization Talk 11:58, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- @General Ization: The recent issue comes from the sovereign disruptions on whether Taiwan is part of China. One side thinks China=mainland China+ Hong Kong+Macau+Taiwan,the other sides thinks China=mainland China+Hong Kong+Macau. I suggested Wikipedia to either stop using the word “China” or include sources to telling the reader the opinions of other organizations. Last month, one side removed the sources. When I add the sources back, they simply think me as the political agenda editor and asked Wikipedia to ban me. I had a debate on the talk page and it works temporarily. Recently, the other side is even more rude. They just revert Wikipedia to their version every day. I doubt whether the talk page works for them. PE fans (talk) 12:36, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- The only Talk page discussion in which I show any record of you participating is this one, from May 2018. I do not show that a consensus was reached there, and it did not pertain specifically to the use of "Mainland China" versus "China". Unless you are willing to engage with other editors to discuss this issue and to not edit tendentiously in the mean time, you are likely to find yourself blocked from editing, whatever your good intentions. General Ization Talk 12:46, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- @General Ization: The discussion in May was about this version https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=East_Asia&type=revision&diff=842721563&oldid=842133810 by the user https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/118.160.173.128

That user wanted to change the opinion of ISO “Taiwan has its independent country code ‘Taiwan (province of China), TWN, TW’”. However, staying consistent with sources and indicating that it is the opinion of sources along is an important part of being netrual. When I posted this issue on the talk page, the ID user 118.160.173.128 did not reply. I agree that it may not be a consensus, but at least that user stopped making changes.
However, recently, the user https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/114.253.207.187 wanted to list “Taiwan” as part of “China” like https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=East_Asia&type=revision&diff=854440027&oldid=854417952 That user also does not reply me. Instead, he keeps using different IDs to make the changes without reason. I doubt whether it is possible to make consensus with him.
That is the current status——The other users does not want to make a concession. I don’t know how to achieve balance between them. Could you find out a solution to this situation? PE fans (talk) 13:55, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- The solution is as I described earlier: specifically, the initiation of a new Talk page discussion or an RfC at a relevant Talk page. General Ization Talk 14:05, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
- Consensus is not unanimity. The fact that there may be one or more editors whom you don't believe you will able to convince to subscribe to your arguments is not a valid reason to not seek consensus. The key will be to take steps to obtain broad consensus from a larger group of editors who may be more objective. There are various mechanisms to accomplish this, including the listing of an RfC at the relevant noticeboard (see Wikipedia:Requests for comment#Publicizing an RfC for more information). If consensus is achieved and other editors violate it, it will then be their problem and they will be dealt with accordingly. If, on the other hand, you are still unable to achieve consensus despite your efforts, you'll need to accept that the change cannot be made here. General Ization Talk 14:55, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
2015 French Open – Boys' Singles Qualifying moved to draftspace
editAn article you recently created, 2015 French Open – Boys' Singles Qualifying, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 09:13, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
- @CASSIOPEIA: Please check 2015 French Open – Boys' Singles Qualifying again. The source is from ITF website. PE fans (talk) 13:54, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
- Hi PE fans, Greetings to you. What we need are independent, reliable sources (secondary sources) that the sources talk about the subject in depth and in length and not merely passing mentioned. The sources need to inline citate - pls check referencing for beginner on on inline citation. (note: sources from home page, marketing/press releases, user generated content sites and etc are considered primary sources and can NOT be used to demonstrate the notability of the subject). By the way, sources can be in any languages. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 14:23, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
- @CASSIOPEIA: Hello! This page is part of the Wikiproject [1] where the final goal is to have a single page for each event in the grand slam tennis competition. For example 1986 French Open - Men's single. The main source for this project is ITF tennis website. Moreover, most tennis score websites have cited ITF tennis webpage. Unfortunately, they are gradually deleted. Nevertheless, I've been able to find at least one of them -- Draw for 2015 French Open – Boys' Singles Qualifying. PE fans (talk) 15:00, 12 November 2018 (UTC)
- PE fans, Greetings. Pls read the two messages above again as it explains the reasons and click the links for further info of the rejection. If you have further questions pls refer to Wikipedia:The answer to life, the universe, and everything. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 03:19, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
- @CASSIOPEIA: You are too strict on the reference. Since you ignore ITF, ATP, WTA websites and all the tennis data websites, you have to destroy all the tennis qualifying draw articles in the history! However, since the main article 2015 French Open – Boys' Singles DO meet the strict criterion, the only possibility now is to move the qualifying information to the main article.
- PE fans, Greetings to you. It is that I ignore the ITF, ATO, WTA websites info, but as per Wikipedia guidlines, these are primary sources which is not independent from the subject for such it can not be used to support the notability of the subject. Thank you CASSIOPEIA(talk) 05:03, 15 November 2018 (UTC)

Legacypac (talk) 09:08, 14 December 2018 (UTC)Context
editWhen a reader clicks on "random article" and lands on a Wikipedia article, they should be able to understand what the article they see is about. The stub 1973 French Open – Mixed Doubles doesn't actually mention the word "tennis". Please use a clearer introduction, like "1973 French Open – Mixed Doubles was a tennis competition held as part of the 1973 French Open. Remember the encyclopedia is for an international audience, not all of whom will associate "French Open", or even "Mixed doubles", with tennis. (Golf? Curling? etc?) Just give a bit of context. Thanks. PamD 10:11, 13 February 2019 (UTC)
- @PamD: You are talking about a common introduction style for tennis articles. For example, 2019 Australian Open – Men's Doubles, 2019 Australian Open – Women's Doubles, 2019 Australian Open – Mixed Doubles as well thousands of articles used the same style. Thus, if you think this is a big issue, please publish your suggestion on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tennis/Article guidelines. After a discussion there, hopefully wikipedia community will figure out an Article Guidelines about how to write a tournament article. Remark that this is a big project, so it's expected to get dozens of editors involved in such a discussion. PE fans (talk) 16:00, 14 February 2019 (UTC)
