This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Soviet-Afghan article edit war

Your recent editing history at Soviet-Afghan War 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.

Hi Gingercom1, I've noticed the edit war in regard to death counts, and I can see that you've reverted edits about death counts numerous times, and have not engaged in productive discussion about the quality of sources but have only made assertions that those sources cited are not credible. You've met and gone over the 3-revert rule. Some examples [[1]] [[2]] [[3]]

I'd recommend continuing to discuss the issue on the Soviet-Afghan War Talk page and explore in-depth why you believe the sources cited do not meet Wikipedia's standards on credibility or reliability. I see some discussion around that, but you are substituting your epistemology (i.e. secondary or tertiary sources must explicitly establish both their methodology for collecting information as well as explicitly invoke the primary source(s) upon which their claims are founded) in order to be cited in a Wikipedia article. Why do you believe that? Señorsnazzypants (talk) 13:10, 6 July 2025 (UTC)
