Your recent editing history at Pi Day shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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.

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.

To include the text you want to add, it should be accompanied by independent sources (not the school newspaper) to show its notability. --NeilN talk to me 18:04, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The source is no longer affiliated with the University of Florida and is now called The Independent Florida Alligator http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Independent_Florida_Alligator The source has been independent since 1971. --Jveingrad (talk) 18:21, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If this source still does not suffice, I have found another source. http://www.gainesville.com/article/20120314/ARTICLES/120319769 Please let me know if I can reapply my edit. I am new to the Wiki editing process. Thank you! --Jveingrad (talk) 18:26, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"The Independent Florida Alligator is the daily student newspaper of the University of Florida" - it's still not an independent source for our purposes as it's run by students, reporting on students. The second source did not have any mention of Pi Day that I could see. --NeilN talk to me 19:02, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
