Template talk:Disambig header

Recent change

My bad, guys. I didn't know that every solitary template revision, no matter how small, had to be discussed before going into effect, even if said change is beneficial and better than the last version. Also, you don't know what an edit war is at all, Spartacus. Noddy (talk) 23:21, 14 December 2014 (EST)

"An edit war occurs when editors who disagree about the content of a page repeatedly override each other's contributions, rather than trying to resolve the disagreement through discussion."

— Wikipedia

The above definition fits the current situation. I suggest you refrain from the sarcasm and caps in edit summaries, as users won't take you seriously when you do that. This goes as a warning to cool it.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 23:29, 14 December 2014 (EST)

Being snarky isn't helping the situation, Noddy. Just state why you felt this template warranted revision in a drastic fashion from its present form and we'll hear you out. It's that simple. Simply give us a heads up. This is a collaborative effort. Helianthus — All right. Shoot!

@Spartacus: "Repeatedly." I'm pretty sure me and Helianthus only undid one edit... Not seeing why you went over-the-top and locked editing on the page for normal users.

@Helianthus: I guess neither you nor Spartacus bothered to take a look at the minor change I made: I simply added more parameters for pages that mention more than one similarly titled or associated page in the template header (ex: Forerunner, which is now messed up).

To our knowledge these are your first ever edits to Halopedia. While we can absolutely forgive you for being unaware of our procedures, no matter how useful your revisions are, which they do appear to be valid, conducting yourself the way you did with edit warring and aggressive comments is not acceptable. The content itself is not in question, mind you, but instead, it's that you didn't consult with the rest of the wiki to see if what you needed fell in line with its needs or even was necessary. As a new user, you should be conscious of how things operate on the wiki to get a feel for it before going off on your own. Helianthus — All right. Shoot!
