3RR Warning
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Cindy Guyer. 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. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 19:19, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

This is the only warning you will receive regarding your disruptive edits. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. - F ASTILY  (T ALK ) 20:08, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of three days to prevent further disruption caused by your engagement in an edit war&#32;at Cindy Guyer. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text. JohnCD (talk) 20:46, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
 * However certain you are that you have The Truth, you cannot force it into Wikipedia by edit-warring and abusing other editors. You must reach WP:Consensus with other editors on the article talk page; if you cannot do that, you must use the WP:Dispute resolution procedure. For a controversial change to the biography of a living person, you will need a better source than IMDb, which is not considered a reliable source. JohnCD (talk) 21:14, 11 August 2010 (UTC)


 * On a somewhat more tangential note, a scrap of an IMDB page and an unsubstantiated claim are not reliable sources. If you want to back up a claim to a fact, those are kinda crucial. See also, WP:Verifiability. - Vianello (Talk) 02:20, 12 August 2010 (UTC)


 * Truthiness is only acceptable with a PROPER reliable source. Most of what you're stating does not meet that (and indeed one would ask how/why you have copies of state-issued documents).  IMDB for example is user-editable, and therefor not reliable.  We have something called the bold, revert, discuss cycle - learn it.  This typically means that status quo holds if the desired edit is not properly referenced, especially in regards to biographies of living people.

I have removed an unblock request placed here by TruthWik, because it contained accusations of wrongdoing against Guyers which I feel violate our policy on material on living people. Additionally it wasn't a request for unblock but a reply to a question, so it would have been declined anyway. TruthWik, if you have things to say to the admins who've been processing your unblock requests you can write them here without adding another unblock template. I suggest you try to keep your own business dealings out of Wikipedia though, and especially avoid making unsourced negative accusations about people, or else you will likely end up blocked for much longer. Olaf Davis (talk) 12:36, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Additionally TruthWik you should read WP:AGF and WP:COI. You admit that you have a relationship with Guyers which is at least somewhat antagonistic: that means you are not the right person to be editing her page, regardless of whether you are right or not. Since you say above that you have no desire to edit elsewhere on Wikipedia I suggest you let the whole thing drop. Certainly if you make any more unfounded accusations against Guyers or against other editors I will be inclined to block you indefinitely, since you have no desire to edit productively outside this area.
