Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Jay Brannan.

If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history.

it was completely on purpose, see the article's discussion page.

although i'm sure you don't care at all about what it says.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Jay Brannan. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. 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. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. —slakrtalk / 10:11, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Jay Brannan, you will be blocked from editing. - ALLSTAR echo 10:12, 2 February 2008 (UTC)


Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Jay Brannan, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. —slakrtalk / 10:12, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a short time in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule . Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below.

If you have an issue with your article, please see Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. Continued blanking of the page will not result in getting the article deleted. It will only result in you getting blocked from Wikipedia. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 10:16, 2 February 2008 (UTC)


i already read that page and it offers nothing. i don't have months of my life to discuss and debate with all the crazy people on here. i like how you even call it "my" article, yet i have absolutely no say in anything. ironic.

how does it feel to be obsessively guarding a wikepedia article about someone who hates you? :)


[edit] Open Ticket Request System

The OTRS system is how you address issues relating to objectionable content in an article about you. If you are indeed the subject of the article, you can make a request through the OTRS system to have the article modified, protected or deleted. Your request will be reviewed and action may or may not be taken based on your complaint. See WP:OTRS for more information. Avruchtalk 16:21, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] How to deal with an article about yourself (some plain direction)

This information comes from another page, the biographies of living persons policy. A direct way to establish your identity would be for you to email Wikipedia so that we can verify your information. It's unfortunate, but there have been people impersonating others on Wikipedia before, so this is a necessary precaution.

Alternatively, you could discuss your concerns at Talk:Jay Brannan, the article's "talk page." That way, a consensus among all the editors working on the article can be achieved as to how the article will appear. We want every article here to be accurate, neutral, and reliably sourced.

I'm really sorry that you've had a sucky experience here so far and I'm happy to help you in any way I can. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. (As an aside, I quite enjoyed Shortbus. It was amazing.)

[edit] Your article

Hi there, saw you complained about the photo of the article about you. Why do you think you own it? It seems someone else took it at one of your concerts, and if you appear in public people are allowed to take photos of you and publish them as well as they are allowed to write about you on the internet. It's the downside of fame. If there is anything wrong with your article just let us know on the discussion page, hopefully people will correct the article. If not, at least your fans will see what you write and believe you. It tends to be more convincing if you write politely, even if it might be hard.
