Fiji

Your 'correcting' the names at Fiji only halfway improved things, in that readers were then unable to click the name Josaia Voreqe Bainimarama and go to to the wikipedia entry, where variants about his name can be explained. No biggie, though...I adjusted the first instance in the first paragraph.

Me again (70.244.247.160, but you can call me "Frank" (c:) You are much more Wiki-proficient than I, but I'm keen on what is best or most convenient for readers. It is not ideal for mention of the coup leader to not be linked in the first paragraph (or any other paragraph!) because you feel its inclusion in the infobox is sufficient. And reverting to the name Frank Bainimarama instead of the more proper Josaia Voreqe "Frank" Bainimarama or Josaia Voreqe Bainimarama, raises questions as to your motive. I say we do what's best for the the casual reader as well as the ones who study Fiji in its entirety.


30 December

I wasn't questioning the veracity of your entry, I was questioning why anyone, anywhere, would care about the THIRD of some milestone. First, yes; second, stretching things somewhat; third, a complete non-starter. --CalendarWatcher 11:19, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Your edit summary ('Re-Reverted CalendarWatcher Reversion. Please stop. You have been previously warned by admins in your talk page to stop unnecessarily removing info. If you continue you will be edit blocked.') is a fact-free nonsensical threat. Do not attempt to throw around weight which you do not possess nor have any factual backing for. --CalendarWatcher 22:08, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

Please have a look at Help:Minor edit: A minor edit is a version that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. --Austrian 22:13, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
Please try to understand and follow the rules of Wikipedia. First: do not label your edits as "minor", when you know they are controversial.
Second, and more important: In your edit you wrote You know I can keep doing this reverts all night. I am right and you are WRONG. -- Before you start "reverting all night", please have a look at Wikipedia:Three-revert rule. --Austrian 01:09, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
To repeat, with the official wording: Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing in 30 December. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions to a single page within a 24 hour period, unless reverting under the circumstances described in Wikipedia:Three-revert_rule#Exceptions. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. --CalendarWatcher 03:46, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
