Sir, I beg you stopping edit war to hold your NPOVs. please read pagesUser_talk:SH9002. thank you. SH9002 (talk) 01:49, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I suggest you stop your reverting wars because this has had gone through enough discussions and honestly the discussions brought out far more points and evidences than your examples of discussions. and  READ FIRST and then edit. Mafia godfather (talk) 01:52, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
 * It was you　continuously to revert the text. Btw, every one had right to join any discussion any time & any where. Wikipedia is open, not your private property, sir. SH9002 (talk) 02:16, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Please read about wikipedia's editing principles(if you know what they are) before you go on talking about how it is for everyone. I reverted you because you were violating rules in the first place.Mafia godfather (talk) 02:19, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Government in exile. 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 several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. Ngchen (talk) 17:01, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Blocked for 24 hours
You have been temporarily blocked from editing for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make constructive contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal the block by adding the text  below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. EyeSerene talk 17:18, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

Although you didn't actually break WP:3RR you have to realise that three reverts is not an entitlement and the spirit as well as the letter of WP:3RR will be enforced. Next time you find yourself getting drawn into an edit war, please leave the article alone and move straight to discussion. The advice at WP:BRD may be helpful.

 * I believe if you would kindly check the discussion page you would find me to be among the most dilligent participants, if not most, in the discussion. It was not my intention to start an edit war as I was merely defending its integrity from poor formatting, and I want to give the editors benefit of doubt that they are not intentionally ganging on me. But I will take your advice and refrain from engaging in edit war.Mafia godfather (talk) 18:05, 2 June 2010 (UTC)


 * I've restored your unblock request as I assumed you removed it because of the formatting error. Beeblebrox (talk) 19:22, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
 * To respond to your concerns: Vandalism is generally defined as editing whose intent is clearly to damage a Wikipedia page. What you were engaged in was a content dispute. As EyeSerene noted, 3RR is not an entitlement, you were blocked for edit warring, 3RR is only one specific application of that policy. In the future a better approach (that won't get you blocked) is to request page protection and/or pursue dispute resolution through processes such as requesting a third opinion or requesting general comment from a larger group. As I've already declined one request I'll leave this one for another admin to review. Beeblebrox (talk) 19:28, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I understand. Given there is already a lengthy discussion on this, , and . and I really do not feel it was necessaary to request page protection for that would deprive other editors' rights to contribute since the issue in dispute is really just one portion of the whole article. Plus the user repeteadly ERASE the section, I simply felt requesting admin help in blocking him was more appropriate. But I thank you for your explanation and I will comply in the future.

Toddst, seriously? First of all, the fact you did not read the reason before you made the decision is pretty outrageous, considering I only provided the Too-Long statement after I realized my original reasons were not adequate without providing background details, and there you come and dictate it was too long to read? While wiki talks about not wasting admin's time, I honestly do not see how their time can be wasted if they are as "efficient" as you. And finally, this was not about "adding" dispute tag, this was about someone with history of deleting the entire portion on the article maliciously modifying the dispute tags to a place that is rather unappealing, awkward, and redundant for two dispute tags were already in place ORIGINALLY and the disputed section was properly shaded. You would have understood if you spent 2 minutes of your time to read the reason I spent 20 minutes to compile because I thought wiki admins care like Eyeserene and Beeblebrox. No offense, but this is pretty incredibly hard to accept. Mafia godfather (talk) 01:27, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

What's your point in calling me an "involved Admin"?
