Your recent edits could give Wikipedia contributors the impression that you may consider legal or other "off-wiki" action against them, or against Wikipedia itself. Please note that this is strictly prohibited under Wikipedia's policies on legal threats and civility. Users who make such threats may be blocked. If you have a dispute with the content of any page on Wikipedia, please follow the proper channels for dispute resolution. Specificallythis edit summary.

Carlin Romano
Just a friendly piece of advice to keep the Carlin Romano from being edit protected and to keep you from being blocked from editing.

First, check out Civility. Edit summaries such as you have been leaving have only one purpose, and that is to antagonize another editor. Try to take a minute and think of a civil, polite way to say in a neutral way what you have changed about the article.

Also, take a few minutes to carefully read Edit war, especially EDITWAR. This is essentially what you and User:Philebritite are engaged in. I don't know who is right (and please don't leave me long lists of why you think you're right), but I can tell you that endless reverting Philebritite's edits are not going to be productive, and since Philebritite's material is well referenced with inline citations and calm, rational edit summaries, the Wikipedia community is much more likely to take Philebritite's side in things.

After reading those guidelines, your next step should be forming a consensus on what should be in the page. Try discussing things with Philebritite. Try proposing changes on the talk page. If necessary, go to dispute resolution. But if you continue down this path, you will be heading for a block.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  17:01, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
