August 2012

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors. 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 try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. 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. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. DMacks (talk) 16:19, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

Russian study on GM food

Hi BigMatow

I see that you really want to include discussion of the new Russian study. That would be great, but the website you keep posting is not a good source. It is far too sensational and makes a very broad claim "Scientists have proved that Genetically Modified Organisms are harmful for mammals." If you are going to make a statement like that in a hotly argued field like GM food, you better have DATA. Just saying that is not credible. Have these scientists published their work in a scientific journal? Have other scientists reacted? This is what we need. Please don't post the Voice of Russia article again (http://english.ruvr.ru/2010/04/16/6524765.html), nor any other "light" source. Again, a claim this big really must be supported by data and must be put in context. Thanks.Jytdog (talk) 21:26, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
