August 2012
Hello, I'm MelbourneStar. I wanted to let you know that I undid one of your recent contributions, such as the one you made to James Jannard, because it didn't appear constructive. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. -- MST  ☆  R   (Chat Me!) 11:07, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

OK... you want a war? No problem. You are posting inaccurate info and deleting accurate info. Let's do this.

Now... who are you? Come out of the shadows. Or shut the fuck up. Jim Jannard

I have now engaged my attorneys to solve this problem. You will need to step forward an identify yourself. No more hiding behind your mouse.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at James Jannard, you may be blocked from editing. Bbb23 (talk) 01:29, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you remove or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did at James Jannard, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. — Mel bourne Star ☆ talk 02:55, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi Spieden. I see you have only edited one page on Wikipedia so perhaps you have a personal connection to the subject. that said, all the information that you remove has been properly sourced by the LA times and the Wall Street Journal so if it is not true the proper and polite protocol is to take the discussion to the talk page and explain why it should be removed. You also need to provide legitimate sources. Alas, if you keep reverting, you will be blocked by the administrators.Patapsco913 (talk)

This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on other people again, as you did at User talk:MelbourneStar, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. — Mel bourne Star ☆ talk 03:11, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either: This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
 * 1) Add four tildes  ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment; or
 * 2) With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (Insert-signature.png or Signature icon.png) located above the edit window.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 03:29, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at James Jannard 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. Bbb23 (talk) 03:30, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion
Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring. Thank you. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 06:11, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

If you are the subject of the James Jannard biography, you need to cease editing and discuss your issues with the article on the talk page. Repeatedly reverting without discussing your concerns will simply lead to you being blocked. If you believe any particular part of the biography is incorrect, poorly-sourced or non-compliant with our rules for biographies (see WP:BLP and WP:BIO), please explain specifically which sections you have concerns with. Also, do not threaten legal action - this is also frowned upon, and may lead you to be blocked under the no legal threats policy. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 06:16, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Legal action is not a threat... it is a reality. If you continue to revert to inaccurate posts, I have legal remedies. Try me... Jim Jannard

Now... I demand to know who you are. Anyone who apparently has authority to neuter my posts needs to be real. So... what is your real name? Where are you? What is your official affiliation with Wikimedia? Jim Jannard

I assume that you will not step forward (as a real person would) and tell us who you are. No problem. We will investigate from our end. Jim
 * Seriously, you need to step back for a moment, take a deep breath and understand what Wikipedia is and is not. I strongly suggest you read this essay: Advice to biography subjects.
 * This is a collaborative community of editors working to build an encyclopedia. Tossing legal threats around will sooner or later (most likely sooner) result in you being blocked from editing the encyclopedia because you will have opted to make it a legal issue. I strongly suggest you retract those threats and discuss the issues that you have with the content. It appears that the content in question is well-sourced to appropriate reliable sources. So please, help us understand, what is your objection based upon? We're not unsympathetic to issues with biographies, but you need to discuss those issues rather than bluster and threaten. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 06:58, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for making legal threats or taking legal action. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the following text below this notice:. However, you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. You are not allowed to edit Wikipedia while the threats stand or the legal action is unresolved. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 10:53, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Jim, because people who have made an active legal threat are not welcome to edit the enyclopedia, I have blocked you. If you retract your legal threat, you will be welcome to edit again. If you think that there are problems with your entry on Wikipedia, we really want to help you. However, you make it impossible for us to help if you just keep removing content without any explanation. If there is misinformation on the article, talk to us about it and we'll do what we can to fix it. Wikipedia is collaborative and is built around discussion - we are willing to talk to you if you have a problem. However, until you do not discuss your concerns with us, there is nothing we can do to resolve the problem. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 10:57, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
