Welcome to Wikipedia

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed your edits at Discrimination against atheists. Please feel free to get in touch with me any time if you have any questions at all about editing here. --Tryptofish (talk) 19:47, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. I noticed under "Discrimination Against Atheists" you had remarked that wikipedia is not a source for itself. I changed it, and linked it to an Army.mil site; however, I also noticed that much of the wiki article has words and phrases that are linked to wikipedia internally. I'm fine either way. I was just wondering why you didn't like the internal link. The Army.mil site isn't as informative as the [comprehensive soldier fitness] site, and it doesn't have the relevant criticism of the program.

As you become more familiar with Wikipedia, you'll want to get familiar with WP:V and WP:RS. We never cite Wikipedia articles as references (see WP:CIRCULAR), but we routinely make internal (blue) links to them. It's the difference between a link and a source. I'm not going to change the new sources that you have added (thanks!), but you should note that, as things like blogs and YouTube, they are likely to be challenged by other editors as failing RS. --Tryptofish (talk) 22:41, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Edit Warring at Atheism and religion

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Atheism and religion. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
2. 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 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 continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. - SudoGhost 17:30, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Also, please see WP:POINT. This sort of edit is not acceptable.   — Jess· Δ♥ 19:13, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Please note that you've been reported here for violating 3RR. - SudoGhost 20:14, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

You should be throwing him under the bus. I've been willing to compromise. He has not. I'm advocating for not adding articles that are in violation of neutrality and reliability rules on wiki. He's also promoting certain organizations over others because he deleted all the churches except for the ones in Texas. This is bs. I've talked. You've steamrolled.

Blocked

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 Hours for Edit Warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
