[edit] Regarding reversions[1] made on April 17, 2007 to Virginia Tech shootings

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. 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 which gains a consensus among editors. Thank you.

This copy edit you did was very well done. I was thinking how to re-write it myself, well done. the previous edit that read, identified by authorities as Cho Seung-hui,[3][4] on April 16, 2007. sounds like he was identified on that date rather then the shooting was on that date even if both maybe true. I see you have been warned about a couple of issues by other users in the past but I believe a persons good works should be noted as well, so I also added a welcome ▪◦▪≡ЅiREX≡Talk 14:58, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule. Please feel free to return after the block expires, but also please make an effort to discuss your changes further in the future.

The duration of the block is 24 hours. Here are the reverts in question. Nishkid64 21:47, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hollaback Girl

Your recent contribution(s) to the Wikipedia article Hollaback Girl are very much appreciated. However, you did not provide references or sources for your information. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a drive to improve the quality of Wikipedia by encouraging editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. If sources are left unreferenced, it may count as original research, which is not allowed. Can you provide in the article specific references to any books, articles, websites or other reliable sources that will allow people to verify the content in the article? You can use a citation method listed at How to cite sources. Thanks! ShadowHalo 07:48, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Talk: Westisle Composite High School

Please meet me, at that page. Thanks. GoodDay 18:14, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Moloko Temo

Why did you remove category: living people from Moloko Temo's article? The dispute is how old she is, not whether she is living or not.R Young {yakłtalk} 00:21, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reverting dated {{fact}} tag?

I'm not sure if you meant to, but you reverted a dated tag ({{Fact|date=May 2007}}) to the undated form ({{fact}}). The dated form is the correct syntax, and is added by a bot if it was not originally used by the editor who placed the tag. It is useful for maintenance/cleanup categories; please don't remove the dates from cleanup tags. --MCB 20:40, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

I was moving the template into the brackets, i.e. (born 25 December 1999[citation needed]) instead of (born 25 December 1999)[citation needed], and just accidently did not keep the dating addition. — John Stattic (talk) 20:43, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tignish-Palmer Road

This district is not an exact copy of Tignish-DeBlois (and that's not redicules). There's communities in this district, that weren't in Tignish-DeBlois. Therefore Morrisey & Shea don't belong. GoodDay 21:36, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Allright, decided to merge (all 27 districts, old names-new names). A few square kilometers differences isn't worth the hassle. PS-My edits were in good faith. GoodDay 22:15, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] July 2007

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Teesion, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. KJS77 04:16, 8 July 2007 (UTC)


Damn, 2 seconds ago we could have got him teesion

A tag has been placed on Damn, 2 seconds ago we could have got him teesion, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please stop making non-constructive contributions to Wikipedia. Thank you. Iknowyourider (t c) 04:21, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for disruptive editing, creating nonsense articles, a disruptive page move, and vandalism of a template.

[edit] License tagging for Image:Lowes holiday.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Lowes holiday.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 09:06, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Lowes_holiday.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Lowes_holiday.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 12:56, 31 July 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. bluemask (talk) 12:56, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tignish, Prince Edward Island article revert

Hi - I see you reverted the edits that I made on August 20 to the Tignish, Prince Edward Island article. We are trying to standardize the introduction for articles to keep them as simple and informative as possible. If you have an issue with the edits, please use the article's discussion section. Thanks!Plasma east 16:04, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Please refrain from reverting edits that are made constructively and discuss the issues beforehand on the article discussion pages. Your willingness to do two reverts so quickly puts you close to violating the WP:3RR policy. The reasons for my edits to the Tignish page appear on that article's talk page.Plasma east 18:01, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Speedy deletion of Teesion

A tag has been placed on Teesion, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia per CSD g1.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as an appropriate article, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is appropriate, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the article and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. Crabula 01:15, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jiggs

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Jiggs, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. María (críticame) 14:21, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Easter Eggs in Media

Please don't rename everything to Spring Eggs, with out disscussing it on the talk pages! This in not the term that is used and has been used for many years, The term "Easter Eggs" has nothing to do with religion!  Doktor  Wilhelm  23:05, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
