California Musical Theatre edit war
Two editors on California Musical Theatre refuse to edit in good faith and one is becoming harassing.
The consensus (so far the only other two are myself and DionysosProteus)is that the spelling for theatre on the article should be theatRE. However User:Bhuck refuse to stop making reverts to his decided spelling. On the article Proposition 8 the member left a hidden message next to the text for California Musical Theatre; !--sic -- in California they are using the non-US spelling for the proper noun--.
Also User:DionysosProteus refuses to stop adding information in the lead that goes against consensus and editing in good faith. Even after I added the exact wording to the "History" section as a compromise. He continues to accuse me falsely of vandalism.
It is clearly an edit war. I know placing "Protection" on an article is a last ditch effort and is not something you do lightly.....but this may just need it now.--
This is clearly attempts by both members to push an agenda and their own POV. Amadscientist (talk) 00:53, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
Crap! If you get a sec could you also take a look at the Roman forum article. It appears to be under attack be random vandals.....I mean REAL vandals. Constant reverts seem to be going on now for just over a month.--Amadscientist (talk) 01:39, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
I have made formal requests
Sorry for taking up space on your talk page for these situations. I discovered the proper page to request protection. I've never had to actualy request a page be protected so I didn't know thare was a place for that, but thanks!--Amadscientist (talk) 03:34, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
I need a favor
If you have time and could look into this situation with the California Musical Theatre article and then get back to me with what you percieve was the actual problem. I have been spoken to in ways that would blow your hair back in other discussion previuose to this, and yet when I simply ask someone not to be an ass that is held against me as incivil when I am being accused of being a vandal.
I have not been blocked but have been told i did make 4 reverts. 3 on the 11th of January and one that they say is the fourth revert on the 9th of January. No explanation has been made other than to say that was the fourth revert. I do not undertand this at all. I am not asking for you to step in just view the discussion page, the edits and reverts and the 3rr violation complaint and if you undertand what is going on......could you explain it to me?
There was no discussion at all about my being accused of vandalism, there was an actual accusation that there was no consensus for me to revert to begin with when the Wikipedia policy states silence is consensus and I was not silent. So there was no consensus for Dionysis to make his change. Wiki policy also states that continuing to place information back over and over again without consensus is vandalism which is what Dionysis was doing along with calling me a vandal over and over.
Even if you agree with the others I am hoping you will at least take the time to leave me a message on my talk page....which I have blanked along with my User page. My not understanding doesn't make me right, but it does cause me a great deal of stress and makes me percieve a manipulation of the system against the wikipedia policy.--Amadscientist (talk) 07:18, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Battle of Camp Hill
Battle of Camp Hill. I think you need to be a little more careful when using AWB (I know when I use it there and I am fixing many pages I make similar errors). Which makes more sense? "All physical traces of Camp Hill fight have passed away. The ground has been all built over, and the site of the Birmingham earthworks is covered by streets." or "All physical traces of Camp Hill fight have died. The ground has been all built over, and the site of the Birmingham earthworks is covered by streets."[1] --PBS (talk) 14:43, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the revert
Thanks for the quick revert on my talk page :) I always appreciate it. Jamesofur (talk) 20:54, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Thankyou and apologies
Thank you for reverting my edit on the article Computer-generated imagery; It was an embarrassing mishap of me editing what I thought was my own User copy of the page, but was in fact the actual page; Rpgsimmaster (talk) 22:11, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
My talk page
Hi, I saw you reverted some stuff on my talk page. I have no idea why this person is removing everything and why I'm the only page they're even doing it to. Very odd indeed. Thanks though. DX927 (talk) 02:48, 2 November 2009 (UTC)
