[edit] Whisper number
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Whisper number. 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. shoy 03:53, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello Shoy, didn't intend to get into an 'edit war' but this person continues to violate wiki edit rules, then appears to have created a user name similar to mine to create more confusion. Not sure the warning you've issued is to the right person. The other problem is now 'hit and run' editors are coming in, undoing my changes but not undoing any of the violation changes made back since November. The article sat undisturbed and accepted for two years, then some one comes in and makes edits that CLEARLY violate wiki edit policys, but no editors stays around long enough to investigate.

- No, I've warned the correct person here. (User:Whisper12345 got indef-blocked due to impersonation.) Even if you are "right" and they are "wrong", flat-out reverting other editors without discussion doesn't solve anything. shoy 04:40, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
Understood Shoy. The main point is that the changes made as of Nov 2007 are not valid per Wiki policy yet no editor has taken the time to review, or is willing to commit the time to review. An anonymous editor came in on Nov '07, made changes that included opinion and non sourced edits, and they were allowed. When these edits were reverted the 'war' started. This article is a mess and should be re-written. I would like to take on that task if allowed, but would like to have the oversite of an admin or editor willing to to do so that this 'unknown' and 'impersonator' do not disrupt an attempt to rectify this issue and article. I've asked three other editors fro help but have been ignored (including an original editor UncleG - look at his talk page for help.) Would be more than happy to have your help.

And, to address a potential issue, I am not 'impersonating' whisper 123, I am whisper123. I forgot my password, was unable to remember what email address I used when I registered a few years back, and just created this new account with the similar name.
