[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia. However, please know that editors do not own articles and should respect the work of their fellow contributors on Block O. If you create or edit an article, know that others are free to change its content. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

- I agree with what NeilN has said above. Yes, Wikipedia is the encyclopedia that anybody can edit; however, all editors must comply with all the established community guidelines for articles—including, among others, the guidelines for editing when you have a conflict of interest, which you appear to with the Block O article. —C.Fred (talk) 05:37, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Block O. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.
In particular, the three-revert rule states that:
- Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
- 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 continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. NeilN talk to me 11:39, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a social network. Wikipedia is not a place to socialize or do things that are not directly related to improving the encyclopedia, as you did at Block O. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. This message is not meant to discourage you from editing Wikipedia but rather to remind you that the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia. Thank you.

This is your last warning; the next time you insert a spam link, as you did at Block O, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines.
Please note that removing this warning is deemed to be acknowledgment of it. If you add the Facebook links again you will be blocked, whether this notice is present on your user talk page at the time or not. —C.Fred (talk) 15:40, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
