Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding or significantly changing content without citing a reliable source is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article.

Logan said: "Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding or significantly changing content without citing a reliable source, as you did with this edit to Foreskin, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability."

My response: The change I made was taken directly from the original source already listed, so it was indeed consistent with your policy.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Foreskin. Users who edit disruptively or refuse to collaborate with others may be blocked if they continue. In particular, the three-revert rule states that: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes. Work towards wording, and content 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 edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Jakew (talk) 16:23, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
 * 2) Editors violating the rule will usually be blocked for 24 hours for a first incident.
 * 3) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

You are the one engaged in the edit war. Considering your activity on Wikipedia regarding the subject of male genital mutilation, you should have been banned ages ago.

 * Your edits have been reverted by no fewer than three different editors (eg., Kingrivera, Logan and myself). Rather than discussing them at the talk page, or addressing the concerns raised in edit summaries, you've repeatedly made the same edits.  Hence I believe it is accurate to say that you are edit warring.
 * If you believe I've violated policy you're free to alert administrators in the appropriate place. Jakew (talk) 16:43, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

It's more accurate to say that all of you are involved in edit warring.
