Paul Kurtz

Thank you for helping us improved the page for Paul Kurtz but please refrain from making major changes to the page without first discussing it on the page Talk:Paul Kurtz with other editors. Since he passed away so recently it is particularly important that the page has reliable citations and avoids presenting undue weight to any of the many projects that Kurtz worked on.

December 2012

Your recent editing history at Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting 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. 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. - Mr X 00:31, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What 'see also' link are you trying to add?

You seem to be having difficulty adding a wikilink to Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. Do you need help? What article are you trying to link? - Mr X 00:30, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The IP is trying to link Mental health in the United States but is just present as a category. I dont know how to go about this I thought about adding Mental health but dont know if it is WP:POV - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 01:05, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You will probably get a lot of push back from other editors if you try to add any links to mental health related topics at this point. Details are still emerging about the shooter's motives, so everyone is cautious about making inferences that are not well established in reliable sources. You may want to start a discussion about it on the article talk page. Good luck!

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Toddst1 (talk) 05:45, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

Your reason here I stopped editing the moment I saw the warning and I was trying to find a middle ground when todd blocked

Decline reason:

You were warned about edit warring four days before you were blocked. The fact that it was a different edit war on the same article is irrelevant: you knew full well that edit warring was unacceptable, and you didn't need to be informed of that fact again. JamesBWatson (talk) 09:08, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

LOL pointing out that the shooter had mental health problems isn't ok but reminding people he used guns is because that's what more than one person thinks? no wonder wikipedia is viewed poorly. --Agnostihuck (talk) 17:21, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
