 | This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
Editors should not take personal offense at healthy disagreements. Sometimes editors feel pique or resentment because of a perceived insult and prolong a disagreement until it becomes a feud. They may even seek friends to support them against perceived adversaries. When unchecked, battling factions may cause serious disruption to Wikipedia.
