Hello, I'm Serols. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —the one you made with this edit to Siege of Fort William Henry— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to John Campbell, 4th Earl of Loudoun. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Serols (talk) 10:42, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to John Ligonier, 1st Earl Ligonier, you may be blocked from editing. Serols (talk) 10:42, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Louis-Joseph de Montcalm. Serols (talk) 10:43, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 3 days for adding spam links. Persistent spammers will have their websites blacklisted from Wikipedia and potentially penalized by search engines. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

I see you just undid all my edits a second time to various articles with the note "no blogs". Is this a Wikipedia rule about which I am unaware? If so, please let me know where I can find this rule. The each blog article contains a link to a podcast which is closely related to each Wikipedia article in question. The blog articles are carefully researched and contain references to legitimate sources. This is not just some chat blog. The blog format is being used to provide a series of informative and serious articles.

If there is a hard and fast rule against blogs would it be more appropriate for me to include links directly to the podcast episode on Podbean?

Please let me know so that we do not continue to go back and forth on this.
