User talk:Mentious

It is very bad etiquette to edit previous conversations. If you have new thoughts they belong under a new comment. Consider the previous comments as a record for others to read through. Cuñado  -  Talk  23:22, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Greetings
Mentious, if you're going to be an active contributor you'll need to refer to these Wikipedia policies and guidelines:

General

 * The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
 * What Wikipedia is
 * What Wikipedia is not

Editing

 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * Manual of Style
 * Help desk
 * Source formats

Wikepedia policies and guidelines

 * Verifiable sources
 * No original research
 * Neutral point of view
 * Cite your sources
 * Reliable sources

It'll also help if you can focus your discussions to the particular pages where they apply. Please note, Wikipedia isn't a blog or discussion group. If you have something to say — and can back it up with a source — then it goes in. If you need to vent, this isn't the place. MARussellPESE 18:54, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:JLSuitSmileGlasses1small.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:JLSuitSmileGlasses1small.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. 09:05, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

3RR
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you 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. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. -- Jeff3000 (talk) 12:55, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
 * You have reverted more than three times, I'll be reporting you to the administors. -- 13:05, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

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 or  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 they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 00:23, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

Secondary sourcing
Please refrain from personal attacks on other editors who ask you for secondary sourcing (which is Wikipedia policy) for your edits. Citing primary religious texts as authority is problematic, as interpretation of text varies between doctrines in every religion. Please also remember to assume good faith of other contributors.
