Lapu-Lapu

Edits

Can you please explain why you reverted my edits? Sander.v.Ginkel ^(Talk) 06:07, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Your nonsense how no WP:VERIFIABILITY or WP:INTEGRITY. Blogs cannot be anything but WP:BLOGS. And you tried seem like hijacking, changing the name of the subject. Mary McAllen (talk) 07:27, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Stop reverting referenced content

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Lazaro Mangubat. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Sander.v.Ginkel ^(Talk) 12:47, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Request reason:

I am not Unbuttered Parsnip. I do share similar things with my brother, and often talk of the same things. But also talk of differing things too. Mary McAllen (talk) 16:11, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

Decline reason:

WP:DUCK. You are either the same person or are editing on his behalf. Yamla (talk) 16:33, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
