 * Please discuss your reasoning for removal of the Controversy section of Richard F. Colburn on the articles talk page. There should be a consensus prior to removal. David (talk) 17:48, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

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 a version 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 you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.This pertains to the the continued removal of the Controversy section, when a discussion for consensus has been started on the talk page.David (talk) 16:18, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|left|alt=|link=]] You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Richard F. Colburn. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.
 * 1) Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.


 * Nuvola apps important.svg Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Richard F. Colburn, you may be blocked from editing. Please discuss this on the articles talk page.David (talk) 18:14, 28 March 2011 (UTC)


 * (Adding to the above, edit conflict) It is not acceptable to delete valid and sourced content from an article, against consensus and without giving a valid reason, as you did to this article on at least 10 occasions to the article Richard F. Colburn. ,,,,,,,,,.


 * Wikipedia mantains a neutral point of view and sections of articles which explain valid information about public figures which is not libellous or otherwise prohibited is legitimate content for a Wikipedia article.


 * Although practice here is to Assume Good Faith, if you carry on attempting to  censor this article without providing a reason, it is likely that you will be blocked from editing.

 * [[Image:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|alt=|link=]] This is your last warning; the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Richard_F._Colburn, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. David (talk) 17:44, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for edit warring, as you did at Richard F. Colburn. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 15:17, 20 May 2011 (UTC) During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.
