Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia, as you did to Coordination, makes it harder to read. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Please also read the history of the page that addresses why changes were made to the article. – sgeureka t•c 08:57, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
Please do not use styles that are unusual or difficult to understand in articles, as you did to Coordination. There is a Manual of Style that should be followed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. – sgeureka t•c 10:21, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thank you. Your good-faith edits may be mistaken for vandalism otherwise. – sgeureka t•c 10:21, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Coordination, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
- editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with,
- participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors,
- linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
- and you must always:
- avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially neutral point of view, verifiability, and autobiography.
Accounts used solely for blatant self-promotion may be blocked indefinitely without further warning.
For more details, please read the Conflict of Interest guideline. Thank you. – sgeureka t•c 11:52, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Coordination. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute 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 which gains a consensus among editors. Thank you. – sgeureka t•c 11:52, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
Hello, it was right to reply on my talk page. Welcome to wikipedia.
I've had a look at Communication, which is a fully fleshed out article. And Coordination is... not. Wikipedia encourages you to write such an article about "Coordination" also, but so far you haven't. Until then, it's best to stick to consensus and what's tried-and-true, and your current approach departs from that. As it seems, your editing yesterday was an unintended newbie mistake and not vandalism, so I'll try to explain what went wrong. :-)
Wikipedians try to make the experience of wiki-newbies pleasant. I have left several notes on your talk page and Coordination's talk page yesterday to give you hints what is expected of wikipedians. You are not expected to know everything immediately; I've been here for months and still discover new guidelines and policies. ;-)
And yes, wikipedia is a free encyclopedia, but there are thousands of contributors, and we have to collaborate whenever there is disagreement on what a page should include or how it should look. And yesterday, there was obvious disagreement about Coordination, which you reverted again and again without ever leaving comments why you changed it back. (That's what all of my notes on your talk page addressed. If you don't know what these topics refer to -- click them and read them.)
- Per consensus from the edit summary history on Coordination, the perfect style of that page is a disambiguation page. WP:MOSDAB (Manual of Style: Disambiguation pages) is the accepted wikipedia guideline of how a disambiguation page should look like. My cleanup version and whenever someone reverted to a/the cleaned-up version was an obvious attempt to make Coordination follow that guideline.
- Whenever you make an edit to a page, it is considered etiquette to leave an edit summary. You have never done so, so it was hard to determine what your reasons for editing were (for better or for worse). Repeatedly ignoring edit summaries despite having received advice is generally considered vandalism and may be reverted instantly. As you still haven't left any edit summaries, I ask you again to please include them.
- You seem to be one of the authors who have published a book about "Coordination". Per Wikipedia:Conflict of interest, you should be very careful to edit any topics too close to you, or you may be accused of mistaking wikipedia for a soapbox (WP:NOT#SOAPBOX). Because you have included the reference to your book by yourself, that reference should be (and was) deleted. If other people consider it useful, they will include it anyway sooner or later. If not, then not.
- Although it may not have been your intention, you have in fact engaged in an edit war by reverting Coordination at least five times in the past two days, even though your attempts have been reverted by three different people, among them an admin. Which would mean your revision was not accepted, and you should not try to change this by simply reverting. By the way, you are only supposed to revert a page with a maximum of three times per day (WP:3RR) or you may be blocked from editing.
- If you want to write a special subtopic of "Coordination", enter the topics name (not "Coordination", but for instance "Coordination (petri net)", i.e. "Coordination (petri net)"), and a new page will pop up where you can write in detail how coordination works there.
That's all you should know for now. I'll leave another welcome info batch with important links below, so that you can read up what wikipedia is for. Do not revert to your version of Coordination again. I'll leave this note on your talk page and make a link on the talk page, and I'll revert back to my version after some time has passed (if someone else hasn't by then.) – sgeureka t•c 13:45, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

What is the motivation for repeatedly deleting all of the discussions on this talk page? This is not normally an appropriate thing to do, and can be considered to be vandalism. CapnPrep 19:43, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
Welcome mr. CapnPrep. I'm agree with you!!! Ciao
