Edit summaries
I have noticed that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! – LATICS   talk  18:58, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Re:Barack Obama
My point is not about referencing or reliable sourcing, but rather about relevancy. The material you inserted is not relevant to Obama's BLP. Perhaps it is relevant at the Presidency of Barack Obama article, where we discuss the events of his presidency rather than biographical information about the individual. Let me know if you have questions of this and I am happy to discuss them with you. QueenofBattle (talk) 19:21, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

August 2009
Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to the page Barack Obama has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

 * I strongly disagree with the use of rollback on your last edit. While it's not appropriate for the Obama bio, I concur with QoB above that the information might well find a place in one of the sub-articles. Unit  Anode  19:51, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. --StuffOfInterest (talk) 19:54, 6 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Jesse, it's about a statement that President Obama's Vice President, Joe Biden, made about unemployment forecasts. A briefer version may be appropriate for an article about this current unemployment situation.  It may ultimately be too much detail for an article about the current recession.  It wouldn't belong in an article about Joe Biden or the Presidency, and it certainly doesn't belong in an article about Barack Obama.  Not just incidentally, would I be correct in presuming from your interest in the subject that you do know that the jobs report that came out today was pretty good?
