Hi Sooke1953! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at
Bill Warner that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as
typo corrections or reverting obvious
vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see
Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

- my mistake then. Dr. Warner's books all have 'Political Islam' in the title as do his videos and there are 17 books available for sale via Amazon so that is public as well. I did think that changing 15 to 16 and correcting the word Islam (which is all encompassing) to the correct term 'Political Islam' would be alright. I hope this explanation will suffice but it is easy to establish if it is disputed.
- Thank you for your help with this. 24.108.212.131 ( talk) 21:52, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Bill Warner (writer) 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.
