Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Information icon Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to History of England. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 09:02, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You say that wasn't vandalism. Ok, maybe you simply don't know anything about the subject, in which case it would be better if you avoided it. No one claimed people were living there for over 800,000 years, the evidence points to habitation at that time. You changed the dates for the end of the last ice age by 5000 years, the date of the bow in Europe by 4000 and the date of the channel opening by 1500. You changed numerous to few. You were not "correcting unsubstantiated claims", you were changing sourced statements and even deleting the sourced material about the Devon jawbone.

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at History of England 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.

[edit]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 00:04, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not delete or edit legitimate talk page comments, as you did at Talk:History of England. Such edits are disruptive and appear to be vandalism. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 14:49, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Kindly do not call me a troll, and please stop this war on my person. I have requested many times to be left alone, yet you all persist in your passive-aggression. Stop means stop. Otherwise I will delete that which is used to attack me. So - STOP.

Your repeated blanking of the talk page thread is both disruptive and edit warring, for which please read WP:3RR for the consequences which include being blocked.

You've made a fool of yourself at History of England. However, edit warring a blanking of the thread to cover it up is not the answer. Either face up to it, stay with Wikipedia and work within policies, or leave. Either way, drop the stick. DeCausa (talk) 22:48, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I will "drop it" when it is no longer being used to beat me with. We have a difference of opinion on the edits - fine, the truth is plain to see.. But when people then use it as a forum to "have a go" at that person, it becomes a "virtual assault" and is completely unwarranted. The first person who conversed with me was nice and respectul. The rest of you - shame on you all. It is not I who has made a fool out of myself. My request was, and still is, legitimate. Therefore, (hopefully) for the last time, kindly stop this assault. You've made your point on the edits, I disagree with it - that's another subject. But stop this abuse for the sake of making a moot point when it becomes an attack on someone. There's no need for it, so STOP. Thank you.
