[edit] Spam/revert war
You and David Justin (talk · contribs) need to cut out your link war.
Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 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. 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. -- Scientizzle 18:12, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- FYI, this is information I gave to David Justin (talk · contribs)

From the outside, it was one of the most impressive displays of edit warring I've ever seen (that's not a good thing). You both violated WP:3RR today, so don't go changing anything right now...The proper procedure would be to head to WP:AN/I to involve some admins; if you can show that your additions are in good-faith and are not spamming, then you might have a strong case against this other user for wikistalking and disruption. If you are spamming (read WP:SPAM to find out what this contitutes), then your edits may not be taken too kindly. -- Scientizzle 18:40, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

- If you've got legit concerns about spamming, there are more appropriate ways to go about combating it than just reverting everything in site. If you feel that David Justin (talk · contribs) has edited inappropriately (per WP:SPAM), you should warn properly and report at WP:AIV, perhaps file a report at WP:AN/I, or find an outlet at Wikipedia:Resolving disputes. -- Scientizzle 18:47, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
