[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS Galizien (1st Ukrainian), which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] Poles

You changed this article to the version of the vandalism. Please don't do this again without discussion.--Plk 14:27, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Sparspost. I'd like to expand on what Plk said above. There has been a rather intense edit war on the Poles article about what the definition of Pole should be. As a result the article is temporarily protected from IP editing and I have asked all participants to please discuss this issue on the article talk page before making further changes. An edit war does no-one any good and certainly does not improve the article. I am confident that a consensus can be reached on the wording of the opening paragraph. Could I ask you to take part in this process before reverting the article again?
I also need to remind you that under the three revert rule, continued edit warring can result in blocks for all parties involved and I am prepared to enforce that if necessary. Many thanks, Gwernol 20:07, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Please stop reverting the Poles article. I will ask you again to please discuss this on the article's talk page. If you continue this edit war you will be blocked from editing. Thanks, Gwernol 18:35, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Please stop reverting the Poles article

ps. and you too

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.

[edit] Recent edit war at article Poles

You have participated in the recent edit war over the opening paragraph of the article Poles. The article has now been fully protected to prevent further edit warring. The only way to resolve this matter is for interested editors to discuss this matter. Please go to Talk:Poles#Continued_edit_war_over_opening_paragraph and express your opinion there. Please work with your fellow editors to reach a consensus wording that is properly cited and neutral. Thank you, Gwernol 12:10, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
