Armenia-Azerbaijan 2

The disruptive edits wars that you are engaged on the Erzurum article must come to an end. Instead of waiting for the outcome of a decision or a consensus, you are constantly reverting editors and inserting information which they have expressed as inaccurate and not grounded by reliable sources. That is why I am formally warning of you of the general restrictions of the arbitration case as specified here: Armenia-Azerbaijan 2. Should you continue engaging in such edits wars, I, or another user, will be obliged to report you; you might thus be placed under the restrictions of AA2 and should you continue to simply revert on sight and not give any or only give superficial reasoning to justify them, further reports will be filed and this time, it will result in some form of sanctions, which include article or topic bans. Please discuss all your edits on the talk page of these articles if you have a genuine concern for their content. And please do not delete and try to conceal these warnings as you did with your IP account here and here, which in either case, will not work since the information can easily be retrieved through the history of this discussion page.--Marshal Bagramyan (talk) 16:40, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

I don't know how you have come to that conclusion MarshallBagramyan, but I have not been in an edit war in the Erzurum article. (If you look at the talk page of the Erzurum article, you are going to see that every change was discussed before.) Now that you have come to that conclusion, why don't you warn the other editor that I was "warring" with. That way we will see that you are not taking any sides in the edit "war."

Or is this basically a retaliation for the Wikiquette case. Maybe it is an attempt to curtail my activity, as you have openly threatened me here (the entry on 17:36, 26 June 2010). Well, do whatever you can. I am going to edit as before: constructively and collaboratively. Robert Willie (talk) 17:07, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

The edit history of the Erzurum article says different, and that goes for both your IP and your normal account. You are making changes to which other users object to. Rather than offering any concessions, as is expected in talks to achieve a consensus, and waiting for what others say, you are immediately reverting every edit you disagree with on sight. You are free to conjure up whatever reasoning to explain why you are being warned for these edits but if you cannot remain civil and desire only to hammer your point of view (POV) across, then please do not act so surprised if someone finally decides to take action against them. --Marshal Bagramyan (talk) 17:20, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

You can check the talk page and the history of the article. All you are going to find out is that I have tried to reach a consensus before making any of the edits. On the other hand, we cannot say the same for you. Unlike you, I am not POV'ing anything. All my edits are legitimate and improve Wikipedia. Robert Willie (talk) 17:56, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Glad that you are here, and please don't be discouraged by the friction of your initial edits: you just happened to step into a particularly contentious domain, patrolled by ethnic warriors from various tribes. At the risk of being presumptuous, might I offer some advice? It would be best to edit less contentious articles for a while, before coming back to these pages (which do indeed need serious revision)--the experience would help you avoid a block or ban.
