Friendly request

Please try to be less personalising and less condescending than here, especially when you are addressing the wrong person (an understandable error, but an error still). --Stephan Schulz (talk) 19:12, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

There was no error. I fully meant to address YOUR inappropriate comments on the GW talk page. I copied and pasted the name directly from the comment. You need to restrict your comments to the topic at hand, and not soapbox about unrelated matters that divert attention from the discussion. Thoams Yen (talk) 23:12, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there was an error. It was not my comment you replied to. See the page history and my note there. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 23:18, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Be Careful

Or you will end up like the other tattered remains of others like yourself. These articles are very closely monitored by a core group of editors. Those that try to add some balance or research which would show different are either blocked as socks, banned for various other issues, or simply give up (like me) rather than deal with the headache. The requirements in getting anything past these editors is almost impossible to obtain. Meet one requirement and a new one pops up. A common one already applied here is citation count. Whatever that number is, no one knows, but you can be sure that this paper will never reach it. Arzel (talk) 03:14, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

February 2011

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Global warming. Users who edit disruptively or refuse to collaborate with others may be blocked if they continue.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
Editors violating the rule will usually be blocked for 24 hours for a first incident.
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. Work towards wording, and content 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 edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. This is just a notice for you benefit. [reply]

Who put this in, I wonder? Looking at the Global warming history shows that Thoams has made precisely two edits to the page! This is the kind of welcome that is given to new editors who dare to attempt to add anything to the global warming pages. Poujeaux (talk) 12:06, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Correction: the problem is not that this user attempted to add something. The problem is that he was adding material unilaterally, contrary to consensus, blithely ignoring the other editors and various Wikipedia policies. And hardly a new user, having been identified as a sockpuppet of a banned user. - J. Johnson (JJ) (talk) 22:50, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
