Richard O'Dwyer

[edit]

Hello my new friend, and welcome to Wikipedia! It seems we've been having a little healthy back-and-forth in the Richard O'Dwyer article. I would like to thank you for your contributions, and the dictionary definitions you have posted. They are very helpful. Now, I would like to discuss your edits on either the talk page of the article, or here if that's more comfortable. The issue I'm seeing is that the dictionary definitions you provided do not match the TVShack website, because the definition you provided is for programs. As you are aware, TVShack is a website, not a program. Certainly, both TVShack employed a search engine in its code for users to find content, but this is a feature of many websites, including Wikipedia. Simply having a search feature does not make a website a "search engine." On the article talk page I have located 16 reliable sources that refer to TVShack as a "website." I believe that is the most neutral definition for the TVShack website. Now, if you are not interested in discussion and just want to continue reverting my edits, then we can move the discussion to a more moderated forum, such as one of the noticeboards. Would you be okay with that? ColorOfSuffering (talk) 17:28, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Don't want to talk about it? That's unfortunate. I'm not interested in an edit war, and we're entering into three revert rule territory. You're refusing to discuss this issue so I suppose I'll just have to bring this to the Administrators' noticeboard. ColorOfSuffering (talk) 19:30, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
FYI -- I've submitted to the noticeboard. Here's a link if you would like to leave a comment there. [1] Cheers! ColorOfSuffering (talk) 19:48, 11 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Richard O'Dwyer. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. 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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Specifically, if you revert even once more on the above mentioned article, without first discussing on the talk page, you will be blocked. Do not take this warning lightly please.
