An | An <b>edit war</b> occurs when two or more wiki [[editor]]s repeatedly, and often disruptively edit a single [[WhatIsWiki|wiki]] page; each one making it express his (or her) own {{tag|point of view}} (POV) – and <u>only</u> his own point of view, refusing to let the other editor 'have the last word'. | ||
It makes no sense to be involved in an edit war on a [[wiki]]. There is always a need to understand the other {{tag|People|persons}}' point of view. It may be ultimately decided that one person or another has not expressed an interest in collaborating. At that point, the community will need to decide what to do – i.e. if necessary, asking them to leave, or even [[WikiIndex:Blocking and banning policy|blocking]] them. | It makes no sense to be involved in an edit war on a [[wiki]].
