User talk:HarrisB

Welcome!
Hello, HarrisB, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Ryan Wiik, have removed content without an explanation. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles.

If you still have questions, there is a new contributors' help page, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia: I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia!

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that in this edit to Ryan Wiik, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 05:18, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Ryan Wiik, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at Ryan Wiik. Ammarpad (talk) 13:08, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Ryan Wiik 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 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.Your edits are not clear reverts of vandalism, so you do not qualify for that exemption from 3RR. —C.Fred (talk) 02:24, 8 October 2017 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. 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. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. —C.Fred (talk) 02:27, 8 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi C. Fred. Attempting to stop disruptive and biased edits of continued vandalism. This article has earlier been placed under semi-protection and is due for the same again. Kindly address. Thanks HarrisB


 * You should've taken the matter to the talk page. Several users cautioned you about your removal of sourced material from the article. I cautioned you that you'd reverted three times and that you did not qualify for the 3RR exemption for reverting vandalism. Your continued removal of that material led to your account being blocked to prevent further disruption. —C.Fred (talk) 02:41, 8 October 2017 (UTC)
