Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 13:28, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Sending messages to users
Please note that it is not appropriate to send the same message to multiple users, in general (there are special exceptions). In the case of issues with an article, you should post on the article's talk page instead (in this case, Talk:Balhae). Furthermore, it does not appear that User:Echthelion83 as vandalizing--instead, it looks like another editor made very significant changes to the article. That is acceptable, but any editor is then free to revert those changes and ask that they be discussed on the talk page. This is also perfectly acceptable; the appropriate next step for the IP editor should have been to go and discuss the issue on the talk page, not just keep reverting. In any event, what is occurring on that page isn't vandalism from either editor--it's a content dispute. Wikipedia has a very specific definition of vandalism, which you can and should read at WP:VANDAL. In fact, all 3 of you have been using the term incorrectly. It doesn't look like the article should be locked, as the edit warring hasn't been that extreme (in fact, there were no edits from 13 March to 15 March). If the edit warring does restart, though, full protection could be requested.

One question: have you used any other accounts besides this one, or are you currently also editing as an IP editor? Please note that, in general, you should edit under only one identity; so, if this is your primary account, you should use this for edits, and not edit additionally as an IP editor. It seems a little odd to me that your "initial" edits were to suddenly message a diverse group of users on their talk pages about a Wikiproject--this clearly indicates you've edited before; I just want to be sure that you're following relevant policies regarding using only one account.

If you have any questions at all, feel free to ask here or on my talk page at any time. 23:49, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
