Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when.

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to the page History of cricket to 1725 has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

Donald Bradman

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Donald Bradman. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Bidgee (talk) 13:49, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Yes you're edit warring! You're reverting (even though you're not using the undo) since you're changing the same section and text to suit you rather then the community. Take it to the article's talk page and address the issue there. As for the "other editors" they did give there reason which was to stick with the FA rated content. If I see you revert/re-add/change the same section and text you will be reported for edit warring. Bidgee (talk) 14:07, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

How much emphasis do you want on the bloke's average? It's in the opening lines of the Lead and discussed at great length in the stats section. Wikipedia works on consensus - you seem to be a lone voice advocating these changes. If you want to change consensus, take it to the talk page before someone trigger-happy blocks you for edit warring. --Dweller (talk) 13:57, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Did you read what I put on your talk page before reverting me? The paragraph as I edited it was actually shorter than before I started on it - AG. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.53.69.150 (talk • contribs) 14:04, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I did, which is why I posted here, rather than reverting you. Check the article history. Now, with that cleared up, please read what I wrote above, which you've not responded to. --Dweller (talk) 14:33, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments and edits at The Story of Civilization. :) -- Quiddity (talk) 19:33, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Talk:The Story of Civilization#Criticism (continue sections 4–9)

Three years later I agree. Just now I mentioned you there (AG, UK) and signed a few more of your comments (86.53.69.150), in simple ways that neither generate a notice nor link here. That article needs genuine coverage of second-party criticism (not our own). --P64 (talk) 17:20, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
