Rita Coolidge
Dreadfulwater, if you are going to insert controversial material into articles on living people like Rita Coolidge, you absolutely have to provide citations from a verifiable source. Thank you. Murderbike 02:40, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Once again, I ask that you please read these policies (in addition to this one), and remember that the material you are adding is a violation. PLEASE STOP. Murderbike 19:39, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Please stop and discuss the changes you want to make to the articles with other editors. An edit war just wastes everybody's time that could be used to improve the encyclopedia. If you continue in this manner, you may be blocked for disruption. Katr67 16:10, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
