Use of Talk pages to make comment
Hi Astronomy Explained. I have reverted your edit of the article on Sinking of the RMS Titanic. Your edit made explicit comment about Wikipedia and about the article itself. The only appropriate place for commentary about any article is on the article's Talk page.

Please return to the Titanic's Talk page and make your comments there. We make good use of Talk pages to raise the standard of articles and I'm sure your insight will be helpful to our Titanic articles. Dolphin ( t ) 01:30, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Sinking of the RMS Titanic. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Dr.  K.  01:35, 22 June 2017 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Sinking of the RMS Titanic, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Dr.  K.  01:36, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Astronomy Explained, you are risking a block if you again try to restore your material at Sinking of the RMS Titanic. Calling something a 'type of rubbish' in the main text is obviously not encyclopedic. EdJohnston (talk) 01:49, 22 June 2017 (UTC)


 * The "welcome"s and editing instructions recently left here by self-appointed watchdogs would have been more useful a decade ago. See User_talk:DavidFRAS for details. Astronomy Explained (talk) 02:25, 22 June 2017 (UTC)


 * I have started a new discussion thread on the Talk page of the Titanic article. I hope you will contribute to the discussion. Dolphin  ( t ) 13:58, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
