I beg your pardon? I suggest that you read the basic guidelines on blocking. My amendments are reasonable.. Who on Earth do you think you are. Honestly! In fact I am merely trying to adjust two links which sit awkwardly on the same line. Markyc1

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 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. Toddst1 (talk) 12:42, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

You seem to be having problems adding a link
I see you keep adding a link to Myspace. I think you need to read up on  our policy on external links, specifically, what type of links not to add. It's clear you're trying to contribute constructively but you need to learn a little more rather than persisting in your desire to add that link. Toddst1 (talk) 12:47, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Nick Drake
You really need to stop adding that information. You have already been blocked for edit warring. You need to read and understand Wiki policy on neutrality and using sources. Several editors have reverted your changes: please take this to the article talk page.  freshacconci  talk talk  17:23, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did to Nick Drake, you will be blocked from editing.  freshacconci  talk talk  21:52, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

(The source of that connection is confidential information) I'm reposting here so I can notify some of the people you were in a revert war with, I see your frustration, but you're going the wrong way about it.

You need a reliable source for the information to be added to the article (that way, we know that what's being added is real, not just something someone's made up) - if you don't have a reliable source, regrettably - you can't add it to the article.

All your edit summaries seemed angry - and this attracted editors attention, along with no reliable sources, people kept reverting, if you have a look at the history of the article - you can see that you keep readding the information.

N.B..

There is nothing remotely like self promotion from me or the subject. HOWEVER their is plenty of it on the page from others!!!! Don't you see!? My sentence is all factual and can be substantiated by if needs be by the record company the autobiography to come out with i think their called Hodder and Staughton, next year, or indeed by John Rabbit Bundrick who plays on the song or by the artist herself. What other way IS there to substantiate this?? FURTHER there are existing entries on the same page with LESS reliable sources! Please get fair and even handed, or you guys are the losers. Markyc1
 * On the MySpace link you are adding, is it about the subject or about someone related, either directly or indirectly? Also, what specific entries are less reliable? Alexius08 (talk) 10:46, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia has a 3 revert rule, don't keep reverting this information, this is why you were blocked and threatened. You might consider discussing the information on people's talk pages, as well as the article's talk page. If you have reliable sources that should help too.  Random Time  12:17, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I apologize for my rude comments on the reverts, but I was getting frustrated with the way Markyc1 was inserting self-promoting information for an artist whose work in the area he was promoting had not previously been coroborrated by any other user; the random MySpace page link was just the icing on the cake. Stolengood (talk) 12:38, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
 * It seems as though you are continuing with these edits, please stop. Without discussion, these edits will continue to get reverted. A MySpace page does not count as a reliable source, you stated in your question. Do not give out my personal details outside of wiki or I will take serious action and I mean it.. respect my right to privacy. that you had reliable sources, if you can show them, then perhaps we can work out. External links states that links to social networking sites could be avoided. You are violating the 3 Revert rule for edit warring, if you continue, you will be blocked however, if you can argue your case rationally, and provide reliable sources, there is no reason why verifiable and notable information cannot be added to the article.  Random Time  16:06, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

YOU GUYS ARE SOMETHING ELSE. I never claimed the myspace was a source. How can I get anywhere with people who cannot retain and process information correctly. Ok then, you tell me what would be a reliable source that someone is making an album... what do I have to get a high court judge to go round to the studio. Fortunately I don't have as much time to spend on this as you do to wreck it. Well done I hope you feel really important and it makes up for the reality of day to day life.
