Peter Osgood

Thanks for the note - I have corrected Osgood's dates on the List of Southampton F.C. players. When I created the list originally, I went by "The Alphabet of the Saints", by Holly & Chalk, which lists players by reference to seasons rather than precise dates. Later additions were made by reference to actual dates, so I should go back and edit the list to put this right. For the time being, I have amended Osgood's dates. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 04:59, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

DRN

Hi Butdavid, Did you want me to close the DRN and start an RFC ?, With DRN I don't even know myself what it really consists of but looking at the main page it looks like we're gonna have to waste our time repeating what we've already said on the talkpage - We've already wasted 4 days just by waiting for some kind of answer .... Not to sound impatient but I'd rather we got this issue wrapped up asap and I think RFC would probably be the quickest way of doing it, I shan't touch the DRN until you've replied, Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 12:25, 14 November 2017 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Hallam FM shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you 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.

Why are you continuing to add non notable presenters to the Hallam FM article, despite being informed of your error many times? Adding your silly commentary is also against policy. Continue doing this and I shall ask for sanctions against you. Please stop. Consider this a final warning. Thanks. -Roxy, the dog. wooF 10:58, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

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.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

You have been adding and re-adding material to the article Hallam FM. It has been removed by two other people so it is controversial. You were warned that if you do it again you are likely to be blocked for edit warring. You did it again, so I am blocking you for 24 hours. When the block expires, obtain consensus on the talk page before re-adding, or face additional longer blocks. -- MelanieN (talk) 16:38, 22 May 2019 (UTC)
