From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing. However, unconstructive edits are considered vandalism, and if you continue in this manner you may be blocked from editing without further warning. Please stop, and consider improving rather than damaging the work of others. Thank you.
Also, removing warnings from your talk page is considered vandalism too. Please don't do it; they are still visible in the history anyway. Thanks. Guinnog 16:56, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
You wrote: "OK so I take the liberty of removing Belgium from the list of Axis powers during WW2 and you revert it stating that "Belgium did exist". Of course it did but all I did was pointing out the bleeding obvious fact that Begium was not an Axis power. But hey... if that is how Wikipedia works then it seems more obvious than ever to me that it will never be a reliable source of information. Sorry I didn't realize that before I decided to edit the article. It jusmakes me wonder how often thi happens and how much incorrect infomation here on Wikipedia is never removed because people like you simply revert the edits and give people warnings"
I was taking edits like [1], [2], and [3] into account when I issued the warning. All three of them are blatant vandalism and must not be repeated or you will seriously risk a block. If these edits were not made by you, please accept my apologies. I didn't revert your edit to Axis Powers either, that was User:Galactor213. Edits like this one should definitely be discussed on the article's talk page first though, as they are certain to be controversial. Hope that makes things clearer for you. --Guinnog 17:29, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
My apologies. I'm a bit new at reverting, and I was trying to do things quickly. Your case looked pretty cut and dry. You had warnings issued too you due to vandalism, and the Axis Powers seemed to be a case of Blanking Vandalism. I thought it a bit odd to have Belgium in the Axis Powers too, but I also agree with Guinnog, such drastic edits as removing an entire section should be put to a consensus before doing it. As of now, it's out, and no one is complaining so I think it's alright. Again, my apologies, you were doing the right thing. Galactor213 19:04, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
- As to your being on a shared connection, why not just set up an account? It's free and avoids the whole problem. The three problem edits I issued the warning for were clearcut vandalism and there is no way from my end to know if it was or wasn;t you who made them; unless you set up an account. Think about it. --Guinnog 19:10, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

- My apologies for not setting up an account which as you said would solve my problem. I will avoid making bold edits without discussing it first. 83.72.128.13 19:46, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

- Thank you for that. You seem to be an okay sort, and I really do feel bad for my poor judgement. Regardless, welcome to Wikipedia. Please, if you would give me your username once you've gotten yourself settled. Cheers. Galactor213 04:13, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
