Re Please advise Hello Mareklug Well I believe that your request at WP RFPP might have been declined due to the fact that the edit war was just starting and there was thus insufficient information of a full scale edit war that would have surely resulted in full protection to the article by the way that s how we call it we don t block articles we protect them If the edit war continues then do relist your request at WP RFPP It will likely to be accepted I also have to agree that you might have failed to control yourself sometimes when in the face of your opponent Tocino Edit warring is never a good choice as it only worsens a dispute and can indeed grant blocks to both of you although I think that a topic ban would be quite an unlikely draconian measure you re not causing that much trouble as far as I see My suggestion is when Tocino or any other user makes an edit that you strongly disagree with refrain from reverting right away and instead summon the other party to the talk page Then two things may happen either he joins the discussion so you can both argue your points of view or he doesn t join the discussion and provides you with a good reason for requesting an administrator s intervention against his unilateral actions I hope this helps Best regards nd
