Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Some policies
Welcome aboard Lancashirehotpot74. I had to just revert a few changes of yours. It would help if you had a read of WP:RS and WP:BLP.

I also notice that you haven't had the official welcome yet, so I'll stick that below. HiLo48 (talk) 11:13, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

WP:EDITWAR

Don't. HiLo48 (talk) 11:24, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

Let's make it official:

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. 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.

WP:EDITSUMMARY

And maybe WP:COMPETENCEISREQUIRED. HiLo48 (talk) 11:31, 26 September 2014 (UTC)

September 2014
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for edit warring and not being here to help build the encyclopedia. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. —S MALL JIM   11:50, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
