  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to WCDE, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you. According to the main Way FM website, they do not have any affiliates in the state of West Virginia. Please stop vandalizing this page.

Perhaps you shoud visit a current site. We have been an affiliate since December,2011. BTW, who died and left you God of radio? RMcGraw, Manager, WCDE. Davis and Elkins College.
Well, then perhaps you should call Way FM and let them know. Also, perhaps you should update your Facebook page and your website. Vandalize again, you will be blocked. - NeutralhomerTalk02:27, 25 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

  This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at WCDE, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. NeutralhomerTalk02:27, 25 January 2012 (UTC) 02:27, 25 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

 

Your recent editing history at WCDE‎ shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. 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. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block.

If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly.

Lets start again

Let's try this over. I don't think you are vandalising, but we do have a problem here. Information on Wikipedia is normally sourced to an external reference - probably in this case the station's own website or Facebook page. If that's out of date, the article will be too, but - assuming you are who you say you are - the way to fix it is to correct one of your sources, and the Wikipedia article will be automatically updated to match. Try to fix Wikipedia first will just cause problems.

Please don't edit the article again at the moment - we have rules to stop people just reverting each other, and you've probably already broken them. If the anonymous editor with the same edits is you (it's easy to edit logged out when you start), then you definitely have gone over the limit.

Go to the talk page for the article, and discuss what information is wrong, and where the right information can be sourced to. It must be a source that can be looked up - can't just be you saying it.

Is that OK. Elen of the Roads (talk) 02:39, 25 January 2012 (UTC) (one of the admins) Hi, Elen. I am the manager of the station. This can be verified by going to the website of Davis and Elkins College, specifically looking under the one line campus phone book for Dick McGraw...or doing a search on the site for WCDE. The person who for some unknown reason keeps changing back to a 4 year old info pack is quoting the website of the network that we use. I can not, nor can I update their site about an affiliate in WestVirginia. By the way, according to your site, the person who keeps changing the information back has numerous complaints logged against him. And why doesn't he get gigged for going over the limit in re-posting the false information over and over again.Reply

I've spoken to him elsewhere - yes it was a bit of an overreaction, but I gather the article had been suffering from your tedious vandal (the kids who replace the text with the word 'penis'....), and he just had you tagged as another one. D&E's website sucks, I can't find anything about the radio station, but I can see the station manager in the phonebook. At the moment the article asks for a citation that it's a Christian station, and one for the WAY affiliation. It's not a massive problem if you can't point to that info on the D&E site, but it would help if you could have done. Elen of the Roads (talk) 03:21, 25 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Thanks so much for you patience. I followed the suggestion and stuck something in on the "talk" part of the WCDE site. I understand the issue with the College site. www.dewv.edu. If you search "WCDE" you will see the news article about the station coming back on the air after being off for an extended period of time. (and my pix, too). Anyway, I cant do anything about the WAY Network website, but I did include the network's general manager's name and phone number if anybody wants to check. WCDE does not yet have a website and does not have an authorized Facebook page. We just cranked up about three weeks ago and those are all in the works. Thanks for your help.
