Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit that you made to the page Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Please use the sandbox for testing any edits; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing for further information. Thank you. Mephistophelian (talk) 19:09, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for for your disruption caused by edit warring and violation of the three-revert rule. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. - Vianello (Talk) 19:19, 13 March 2010 (UTC)


 * Ok, point taken, I've just blocked one of the other edit warriors who reverted you three times, and now I'm off to leave a warning on the article talk page about further edit warring. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:16, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

I was surprised to see a "message" notice when I did a search for "GIGE", which is, AFAIK, not related to any "Battlefield" game or similar entry. I quickly realized that I wasn't part of the original debate shown above: I got the notice since Verizon's DHCP server issued me an IP address which used to be assigned to the previous contributor. It's a tempest in a teapot, of course, and I'm not sure if I could log on to avoid it, but I recommend that Wikipedia implement a "timeout" policy on IP-address-based discussions and/or limit them to users whom access the original article.
