Rankings in lead of ISU article
Why wouldn't you lead with ISU's impressive national ranking? Why make people hunt for such an important piece of information that adds value for students, prospective students and alumni? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Austinitic (talk • contribs) 20:12, October 15, 2012‎
 * Because there is a pretty strong consensus against having specific rankings in the lead of university articles. Additionally, it's poor form to begin an edit war with another editor instead of beginning a discussion in the article's Talk page; please consider reverting your edit until we can resolve this.
 * And it would be much better if you posted in the article's Talk page instead of here. It's pure luck that I noticed this post on your Talk page.  If you post on the article's Talk page, anyone who is watching that article will see your post and may choose to respond. ElKevbo (talk) 01:34, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. ElKevbo (talk) 11:01, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
