editPlease do not add or change content, as you did to Biofuel, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Possible edit-warring using sock puppets. E8 (talk) 16:07, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Biofuel shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 12:17, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
AesopSmart, I'm very sorry you've taken this action and had to be warned about it. I replied on my talk page (link below) as soon as I saw your message; there are good and proper ways to go about achieving what you want, and I'd encourage you to do that before you get blocked for good.

editPlease do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. You removed others' talk page comments this about amonth ago on Talk:Tree and Talk:Forest: Please do not remove or change the meaning of others comments. —EncMstr (talk) 16:39, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
