User talk:Penser
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing in People's Republic of China. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. --Ideogram 02:36, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- I understand what you are saying. Nonetheless, Wikipedia does not defer to individual user's judgments about the quality of a country's political system. You have not shown that verifiable sources demonstrate a predominent or even common view that China is not a republic.
- At law (even if not reality), the supreme governmental organ of the PRC is the National People's Congress, which is elected as representatives by the citizens of the PRC. If you argue that the process is so perverted as to make it not a republic, you will need better sources. Please read WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:OR. --Sumple (Talk) 02:51, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Three-revert rule
It doesn't matter who has sources or justifications, you are supposed to discuss your differences instead of just reverting to your preferred version. Read WP:3RR. There clearly is a dispute or you wouldn't be having this problem. --Ideogram 03:51, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] USA
First of all, you inserted a falsehood. You said the United States is third in land area alone behind Russia and Canada; this is false, as the USA is ahead Canada in land area. And you seem to think the dispute is about land vs. water area; it is not. The dispute is because the People's Republic China includes Taiwan in its total land area, whereas more objective sources do not. That is the root of the problem, not land vs water. --Golbez 09:12, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- I do apologize, I misread the diff, I thought you were saying it was just ahead of China, but no, it's just ahead of Canada. I'll revert myself. --Golbez 09:14, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
