Epoch Times
[edit]Hi. I notice that you've been removing the Epoch Times from a range of articles as a source. I don't think that this is helpful or necessary. If you feel that the Epoch Times is simply wrong factually on something, I would suggest you use the article's "talk page" to discuss in what way the source is wrong. Wikipedia in theory is happy to use Epoch Times as a source, and if anything it could be argued that removing it as a source from any article is against policy.
I suggest you read the welcome to Wikipedia article. John Smith's (talk) 13:27, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
- I see what you've been doing. Although I have some sympathy, what you did is banned as WP:POINT, and you'd have done better just to raise the matter on Ruhrfisch's talk page. SamuelTheGhost (talk) 15:16, 24 October 2011 (UTC)
- Interesting rule. I wasn't really trying to prove a point; rather, I was conducting a test. For all I knew, The Epoch Times really was disallowed as a source, and those references had just slipped through the cracks. TryingToSee (talk) 00:16, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

WP:3RR
[edit]
Your recent editing history shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. 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. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block. If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. 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. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly.

- My apologies - I was in a hurry and mis-read the date of your previous revert. Feel free to remove this if you want. Ruhrfisch ><>°° 04:34, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
