Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Religious views on masturbation, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Empty Buffer (talk) 22:52, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Sources required
Please do not add or change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Religious views on masturbation. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.

Wikipedia is not a reliable source for itself. 69.181.249.92 (talk) 22:52, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Religious views on masturbation. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Empty Buffer (talk) 22:57, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Edit warring
I see you are involved in an edit war at Religious views on masturbation. Even though the user in question is just an IP address, you can still report the trouble you are having at WP:AIV if the other person is actually a vandal. Please bear in mind the 3-reversion rule, and don't get yourself banned over this. --Falcon Darkstar Momot (talk) 23:33, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Religious views on masturbation. 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. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 23:34, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Discuss your proposed edits on the article's Talk page and see if there is consensus for it. You seem to be trying to use a Wikipedia article to source an edit, and that's not a reliable source. If you have problems, you can either use third party opinions or dispute resolution. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 23:51, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
