You've added information to the Kensington Runestone article twice but you haven't provided any citations for those claims. Wikipedia depends on reliable sources that other people can verify. Before adding information again, please cite your sources. Jonathunder (talk) 22:28, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Stop
You need to stop pushing unsubstantiated assertions into the Kensington Runestone article. If you continue, you can be blocked from editing. 22:51, 12 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Please go to Talk:Kensington Runestone and propose what you want to add to the article. Do not put it back into the article itself without discussion. Jonathunder (talk) 22:56, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Kensington Runestone. 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: 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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Jonathunder (talk) 22:58, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
 * 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.

Original research
Robert: your self-published website and power point presentation are not reliable sources that can be used here on Wikipedia. Please read No original research carefully. Wikipedia is not a place to promote your thoughts about the Kensington Runestone. Jonathunder (talk) 00:17, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

January 2016
Your recent editing history at Kensington runestone shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

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.

Holand vs Breda
Just FYI: Yes, Holand thought that Breda was a fool. Breda thought Holand was a fool. Neither of those opinions are relevant for the topic, and hence none of them need to be mentioned on Wikipedia, as in science peoples opinions of each other are irrelevant. And if the opinions for some reason ARE notable, then please note that almost all archaeologists and all Scandinavian linguists think that it's Holand who was the fool, hence if any of these opinions should be noted, then that one wins per WP:NPOV. --OpenFuture (talk) 22:16, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
