Selkirk[edit]
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Selkirk. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing.
- I could have blocked you for this. As you are new here, I'll advise you that you need to discuss this on the article's talk page. Wikipedia works by consensus. Sometimes you just have to accept that your point of view is not accepted by the majority and gracefully retreat from the battle. Mjroots (talk) 06:37, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
