Your recent editing history at George Galloway 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. 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. RolandR (talk) 21:17, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Personal attacks
I'm sure you know about WP:AGF, WP:CIVIL, etc, yet you just used an edit summary for what is clearly a personal attack. And one which suggests you can somehow read by mind. I don't like Galloway but I also don't like using tabloids in this way. The comment is also pretty ironic considering the pretty clear pov that comes through all the editing I've seen from you.

 * Odd that you find all my edits POVed. In fact most of them are minor adjustments opposed by noone. The dispute between two of us only concerns topics related to Islam. Take care. Miacek and his crime-fighting dog (woof!) 17:29, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
