Edit Warring...
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Empress Matilda. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. 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.
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

Spelling
I'm unsure if you are managing to access all these messages concerning your edits on Empress Matilda but as and  have tried to explain, you are incorrectly altering the article. Please stop as we would not like to see you blocked. Thanks. SagaciousPhil - Chat 08:26, 3 May 2015 (UTC)


 * (edit conflict, and too late, but never too late to understand:) Her name is Mathilda in German, but Matilda is the common name in English, used in the majority of the sources. If English-speaking people see Mathilda they pronounce it wrong with a strange hissing sound. Worse things than a missing "h" happen to German names in translation, - I think Munchausen is just awful, but we can't help it, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:36, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
