I assume you are the same editor as User:72.148.154.183? Please stop adding the phrase "in the United States" before the Americas article, it adds unneeded confusion and is demonstrably wrong. And please do not engage in edit wars; use the talk page to discuss changes. Thank you.--Cúchullain ^t/c 05:23, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Americas

Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to Americas. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed. WilyD 17:02, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, HPazChow, and thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. There may be some value in the changes you have made to Americas, but you're going about it in the wrong way. Since you're new, I'll try to explain rather than blocking this account temporarily. First, we have a policy against reverting more than 3 times, which you have done using this account and your IP address to restore your changes. Whether you think you are or not, you are engaging in an edit war, which are seriously not cool. The proper way to get your changes in there is to discuss your issues on talk page at Talk:Americas; you addressed some on my talk page. You also need to realize that Wikipedia works by consensus, meaning there is a lot of collaboration, and people will not agree with everying you want to do. Also, any changes that do not attribute the claims to reliable sources are unlikely to be allowed to stay. If you have further questions, feel free to drop me a line, but do not re-add your material back in without discussion or sourcing, or I or another admin will be obliged to block you.--Cúchullain ^t/c 21:20, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
