April 2009 edit

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Smiley face murders. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page 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. Acroterion (talk) 16:50, 13 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

  This is the only warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. You will be blocked from editing the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Smiley face murders. Leuqarte (talk) 16:51, 13 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Edit warring and threats edit

Hi,

This note is to help, in your editing dispute at Smiley face murders. As a few users have pointed out, there are strong expectations of editor conduct, and I'd like to recap those, and suggest ways you can edit without breaching them.

  • No edit warring - we have a policy on edit warring. Don't. if you have a disagreement what should be in an article, discuss it (and yes this can be tedious and frustrating), but do not just try to "force" your version. If there is a problem, seek wider help.
  • No attacks - Respect other users anonymity, do not name them or provide details about them unless they have chosen to do so (this is an instant blocking offence), do not attack them. Concentrate on their edits and what's good or bad about those, not on "personalities".
  • Respect sanctions - If you are blocked, under any account or IP, do not try to edit until it is ended. You can appeal easily, and request to be unblocked; this will usually need a simple commitment not to repeat.

I hope these help; but please, if you repeat either of these under any IP or account, you are likely to be blocked from editing.
