William Lane Craig

edit

  Your addition to William Lane Craig has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other websites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Johnuniq (talk) 11:26, 4 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

August 2010

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on William Lane Craig. 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 several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:08, 5 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

On Wikipedia, when it's clear that we disagree, we stop and discuss our disagreement, form a consensus on what the best version of the article should say, and then add the changes we've agreed on together. Repeatedly reverting others' edits is disruptive because it makes everyone angry and doesn't lead to a useful consensus on what the article should say. When your block expires, instead of returning to the article, go to the article talk page and discuss your disagreement with other users. I'm sure that you can all work out a version of the article that's consistent with Wikipedia's rules and informative about the subject.-FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 21:23, 5 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from William Lane Craig. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Continuing to remove content like you did will result in your editing abilities being suspended again. Mithrandir (Talk!) (Opus Operis) 01:59, 7 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Why did you change my edit on William Lane Craig? The other people obviously have biased and untrue stuff to say about Craig. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ChaseMcAllister247 (talkcontribs) 02:04, 7 August 2010 (UTC) Reply

Your edit contained mostly original research and removal of a large amount of content that was referenced, unlike your edit. Please read this and this for more information. Thank you! --Mithrandir (Talk!) (Opus Operis) 02:13, 7 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

And for what it's worth, if you would discuss your edits on the discussion page, I'm sure you could make some valuable contributions... Theowarner (talk) 03:29, 7 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

To spell Theowarner's comment out, please visit Talk:William Lane Craig to discuss what changes you propose for the article. See WP:TP for a how-to, and WP:TPG for the principle. Johnuniq (talk) 03:39, 7 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

I have reset your block to expire one week from today since you have evaded your block. While your account is blocked you are not to edit Wikipedia at all, under any account or IP address. --Chris (talk) 08:53, 12 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
