[edit] Friendly 3RR warning

• Not sure if you are aware of it, but there is a policy on Wikipedia called Wikipedia:Three-revert rule. You can be blocked by an administrator for a set amount of time, for "reverting" someone else's edits more than three times within a 24-hour period. Something you might want to keep in mind. This generally helps to increase discussion on the talk page, though not always, and not always in a civil manner. Best of luck... Yours, Smee 21:43, 23 February 2007 (UTC).

I appreciate the warning. Please note that I have never violated it. Gatorgalen 00:28, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, I haven't actually taken the time to scrutinize the DIFFs, but again, I won't be the one to report you if someone actually does, considering you're a new user and all. WP:AGF and WP:DBTN, after all... Smee 11:31, 24 February 2007 (UTC).
