Hello, I'm Meters. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Greendale High School, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Meters (talk) 21:59, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

April 2019

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Greendale High School. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Meters (talk) 02:50, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:BRD, and discuss this material on the talk page. Meters (talk) 02:50, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

New content on Greendale

I removed your reference to a living person in Greendale, consistent with what I understand to be Wikipedia Guidelines.

Also, I edited one of your earlier sentences about racially restrictive covenants.

Most suburban communities in Milwaukee (and in the midwest) had restrictive covenants. I am not arguing that this was a good thing, but only that it seems out of place to call out Greendale in this regard.

Finally, I don't know if a student publication from UWM is necessarily a reliable source -- especially regarding comments suggesting that Greendale did not achieve its original purpose.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Greendale High School, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Meters (talk) 03:55, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Your recent edit to Greendale, Wisconsin appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. Meters (talk) 04:03, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest that you read WP:POV and WP:RIGHTINGGREATWRONGS Meters (talk) 04:04, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Greendale High School. John from Idegon (talk) 15:25, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Greendale High School; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
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 and 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.
You've added this material 5 or 6 times now. It has been removed by at least 3 different editors. Discuss it on the article's talk page or leave it alone. Meters (talk) 23:19, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Partycity reported by User:John from Idegon (Result: ). Thank you. John from Idegon (talk) 03:07, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article talk page

Why are you not using the article talk page to explain your edits? You need to start to do this. Continuing to edit war is almost certain to bring about sanctions. El_C 03:20, 17 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Waiting 2 days and restoring the material yet again[1] ~~[2]~~ without discussing it does not help. You have made this edit at least 8 times now, and ~~at least 3 times~~ twice in this article and twice in the town article since the above comment by User:El_C. It is a district issue and does not belong in the school article. Discuss this on the talk page or leave it alone. Meters (talk) 04:35, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've messaged El_C also. Otherwise this will be going back to WP:ANEW and the results will be different. John from Idegon (talk) 04:41, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

My second diff was actually to the town article, not the school article. Possibly if could go there with better sourcing, but user has attempted to add it there more than once with the same weak sources as in the school article. Meters (talk) 04:45, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Block

You've been blocked from editing for 48 hours due to edit warring. When the block expires, please make use of article talk page/s. El_C 05:57, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Going forward

As you can see, the warnings you got from other editors are not a joke. Talking to other editors is sometimes required. I'll leave you some info below on how Wikipedia really works, and a link to a place newcomers can ask questions. Please pay close attention to WP:BRD, WP:CONSENSUS, WP:V and WP:NOT. Thanks.
