Magnetic properties

edit

I've done a quick check with the CRC Handbook, it disagrees with your changes to the magnetic properties of Calcium, Copper, Magnesium, so I reverted. If you have better sources you need to cite them. Femto 12:31, 9 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

I'm out of town on a conference right now, so I'd like to check on this after I get back when I have a chance. However, I do know that paramagnetism stems from unpaired electrons, something that Copper (but neither Calcium nor Magnesium) has, so that's where my editing came from. There were so many widespread errors in the magnetic properties of various elements on Wikipedia that I felt that such sweeping changes, based on basic principles, were appropriate.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on The Scientific Activist. 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. Will (aka Wimt) 17:46, 16 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

I have no opinion on the debate in question myself, but two users continuously reverting each other is never beneficial. I strongly urge you to wait for a third opinion and not continue with the edit war as it really isn't gaining anything and will lead to you getting blocked again. I warned the other user as well.

Thank you for making a report on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. Reporting and removing vandalism is vital to the functioning of Wikipedia and all users are encouraged to revert, warn, and report vandalism. However, administrators are generally only able to block users if they have received a recent final warning (one that mentions that the user may be blocked) and they have recently vandalized after that warning was given. The reported user has not yet been blocked because it appears this has not occurred yet. If this user continues to vandalize even after their final warning, please report them to the AIV noticeboard again. Thank you! SWATJester On Belay! 21:01, 16 March 2007 (UTC) Reply

Further, AIV is for vandalism, not content disputes and not for gaining an upper hand in an edit war. SWATJester On Belay! 21:02, 16 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
I found this quite unhelpful. Repeatedly removing sources and text from the same page without explanation is not what one does in a "content dispute" it is vandalism. Perhaps I should have been more patient and given the prescribed warnings, but considering the history... and the eventual outcome...
The real question is why are you leaving this note on this page when I'm the one who posted to AIV? Oh well, at least some other editors stepped up and took care of this. -MrFizyx 22:23, 16 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
My mistake, for some reason I thought you were the one who posted to AIV. SWATJester On Belay! 22:33, 16 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hello Biochemnick. Your abilities could be an asset to Wikipedia over the long term. You have apparently not picked up the culture yet and you're at risk of getting into a downward spiral with the administrators. Since you're obviously very capable in the scientific areas, please consider reducing the level of hostilities for a little while. The fact that some of your opponents haven't behaved well either isn't much of a consolation. See the latest update for my own analysis. EdJohnston 17:20, 17 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
