User talk:Brfc97

Blackburn Rovers F.C.
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. I encourage you to take part in the discussion on the talk page. Bill (talk 10:31, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Regarding your edit summary, citations are needed for all content that could be challenged. All content on Wikipedia needs to be verifiable so that readers who don't know the topic well can go to a reliable source that confirms the statement. For example, with Burnley, a reader might not be sure whether or not they are rivals as Blackburn are in a different division. A citation allows the reader to verify the claim. Ideally the section would be written as prose to give the claim more context, but a citation is the best start. I hope this clears up why citations are necessary.

 * Please use the discussion pages. You're not at all making it clear what your concerns are and are removing citations and citation needed tags. The section is in Alphabetical order but it does not need to say it in the heading. I warn you again about the 3 Revert Rule as you're too quick to revert without discussion.

Re: Your comments on WP:AN3
A few comments in response to your latest post on WP:AN3. In any case, please try to use talk pages to reach a consensus and avoid edit warring in the future. Oh...and it's probably not the best idea to try to blank discussions on Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard or any of its subpages. They're quite heavily watchlisted, and it will be quickly noticed and reverted. --Onorem♠Dil 13:37, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) Who originally wrote the section doesn't matter. As it says on each edit page, "If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly or redistributed for profit by others, do not submit it."
 * 2) The version you keep reverting from does present the list in alphabetical order. It doesn't need to, and shouldn't IMO, explicitly state that in the article itself.
 * 3) Who they are a fan of and their level of knowledge really isn't important, and it certainly doesn't justify an edit war. Consensus on the talk page appears to be against your version at the moment. Please continue the discussion there instead of reverting multiple people just to get back to your preferred version.

. It does not present the list in alphabetical order. There is a survey included that presnts an exact order. However that survey is from 5 years ago and conducted by a website that is independant and not affiliated with Blackburn Rovers Football Club. All I request is that the list remain in alphabetical order and not include phrases such as "2nd rival after." Clearly that is not alphabetical order at all. I request that phrase is removed immediately. It keeps getting changed if there is any indication that the order is anything other than alphabetical. --Brfc97Brfc97 14:00, 14 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I also reviewed your request. Regardless of your reasons for making that change repeatedly, after a certain point it becomes edit warring and is considered harmful.  That's why you've been blocked.  Mango juice talk 15:37, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

footballderbies.com citation
The footballderbies.com citation does not need to provide exact evidence as it is only being used to source the claim that violence has occured at matches. The source says "There have been some cup matches with violent outbreaks in the meantime though." As the website is reliable, it can be used to source the claim in the article that says "...on some occasions violence has broken out." I have provided an in depth breakdown of the citations used in the section as an explanation to what exactly they are confirming in the Wikipedia, and where the text is in the source. If you have a problem with these citations, which to myself and other users seem fine, please take part in the discussion and explain exactly why you think the citation should not be there.

Discussion can help solve this mess
Contrary to your last edit summary, the users that make up the consensus for the version your reverting are not "control freaks". I really strongly urge you to be a part of the discussion so you can help form the consensus of what the section should include. I have removed the phrase "second after Burnley" from the section because you were so against it, even though I think it's fairly valid and as do other editors. It is pretty uncivil for you to continue to revert edits against consensus when an editor is trying to accommodate you despite your abrasive editing style. I really desire for you to be a part of the discussion so that this edit war can end. You have a problem with the citations so before you were blocked I made a complete breakdown of why each citation is used. I'd be grateful if you could have a look there and raise any concerns you have with the citations on the talk page calmly and clearly. Thanks. Bill (talk 22:45, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
