  Please stop your disruptive editing.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Book of Genesis, you may be blocked from editing. Do not change dating systems on articles without clear consensus.Lionel(talk) 22:57, 9 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

You can be unblocked if you agree to stop making era changes. Doug Weller talk 10:58, 29 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Dear Doug, Thank you for for the notification. I agree to stop making era changes without first seeking consensus on the article's "Talk" page first. Thank you for bringing this to my attention and my deepest apologies if I have offended you or anyone else. With best wishes ~~~~ BibleScholar (talk) 17:35, 29 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
To tired to do this now, sorry. I will tomorrow. And I’d have to do it in my PC, not this iPad and between chemotherapy and Parkinson’s and overdoing things today I’m not up to stairs again! Many apologies. Doug Weller talk 20:10, 29 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Please don't worry - unblocking is certainly not worth a detriment to your health. With all my very best to you and thank you for getting back to me so quickly even with everything going on. BibleScholar (talk) 08:25, 30 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for your forbearance. I'm unblocking you now. It's probably best to avoid era changes anyway, but if you do use a talk page you need to get WP:CONSENSUS. I love finding sources - see WP:V and WP:RS and Help:Referencing for beginners, which is a great tutorial. Doug Weller talk 14:49, 30 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thank you so very much for your kind assistance. With my very best wishes to you. BibleScholar (talk) 08:40, 31 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
