This is your warning about WP:3RR William M. Connolley 08:40, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

The link at Global warming controversy
Hi Winknudge. That link is a) irrelevant to the current discussion about global warming, and b) misplaced in the introduction. I also notice that you change "the scientific opinion" to "a scientific opinion". This is wrong - it's not just an arbitrary opinion, it's the opinion held by the overwhelming majority of qualified scientists. Outside the popular press in the US, there is no discussion about the basic facts of global warming anymore. --Stephan Schulz 23:48, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

Assuming you get this message, Stephan, the link should be placd in the instruction because it provides direct evidence of the ongoing nature of the dispute. Remember, the article is about the global warming CONTROVERSY, not global warming.

Also, as demonstrated by the my link, there are many prominent scientists who have held contrary views at different times.

Finally, many "qualified scientists" have a vested interested in promoting their view so that they can more grant money and clout. In effect, using the term "the" to refer to "scientific opinion," turns this section into spam.

3rr warning again
I'm about to report you for WP:3RR. I suggest you self-revert, before you get blocked, as you've been warned before William M. Connolley 19:22, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Go ahead, if you think that your continued spam and vandalism will help your case. It should make a nice story about the workings of Wikipedia politics and how certain Wikipedia members try to censure others in order to promote their cause instead of maintaining neutrality.
