About the Americas article
Hi, David. I see that you're trying to add some bit of information to the Americas article, and other editors have removed it as they find that it is too much detail for the article in the form it's written; it doesn't fit in any section. When this happens, the best approach is to stop re-adding the content and discuss the changes with the other editors at the article's talk page.

As others have pointed out in the edit comments, a better place for your addition may be the article Pre-Columbian trans-oceanic contact or at Theory of Phoenician discovery of the Americas, which are clearly about the same topic that you're writing about.

 * This is correct - those are the articles for this fringe material. Dougweller (talk) 17:57, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Americas shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Please note that this has nothing to do with whether you are wrong or right. Dougweller (talk) 17:53, 30 December 2013 (UTC)
