[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Pop icon. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you.

Michael Jackson
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, some changes are controversial and should be discussed with other editors before being made. At least one of your edits, such as the one you made to Michael Jackson, appears to have gone against established consensus and has been reverted. Please check the article's talk page for discussion about this topic with other editors. If you wish, you can open or continue the discussion there to help establish consensus for your edits. Be sure to check the welcome page to learn more about how Wikipedia operates, and feel free to ask any questions. Thank you. Mlpearc (open channel) 05:22, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
