A Barnstar for you!

		The E=mc² Barnstar
		I award this E=MC² barnstar to you for your clear technical expertise demonstrated on RF resonant cavity thruster. It is clear that you really know your stuff, and put a lot of effort into your edits. Keep up the good work and try not to get discouraged. I look forward to editing with you in the future.

Thanks for this Insert CleverPhrase Here very unwarranted given the current turf battles going on by multiple editors (myself included) in the article! Will no doubt try to contribute something constructive again very soon - see you over there. --Sparkyscience (talk) 08:49, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

December 2016

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions. 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 lose editing privileges. 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 loss of editing privileges. Thank you..

In particular, there is not yet WP:CONSENSUS for this addition to the article: [1]. Regards, Rolf H Nelson (talk) 05:27, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

Thanks Rolf. The irony is not lost on me that it appears to be you who is deleting other peoples contributions and that most other editors do not agree with your preferred version of the page. Any particular reason why you copy and pasted this warning on my and Musashi miyamoto but not Insert CleverPhrase talk page seeing as we have all done the same thing? I agree this needs to go to DR.--Sparkyscience (talk) 10:45, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
