Edit warring

edit

I noticed you have been in a prolonged edit war with another user on the article Employee assistance programs. Please note that edit warring is not an appropriate way to resolve a content dispute. Please see dispute resolution for some appropriate venues to resolve this dispute. I recommend starting with seeking a third opinion or the neutral point of view noticeboard. In the meantime, I have requested full protection of the article in question, so that some consensus can be gained before any edits can be made. If an administrator agrees with my rationale for protection, only administrators will be able to edit the article, though anyone may request an edit on the talk page.

Please note that I am not taking any side in this dispute, and I have already left this same message on the other involved user's talk page. —KuyaBriBriTalk 17:22, 25 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hello KuyaBriBri,

I appreciate your feedback and am interested to see how this dispute can be resolved. As a relatively new user I don't generally have a good understanding of how some of the dispute resolution processes work. I would like to see a third party get involved in the discussion re: this article (although a few notable recent edits - which I found to be perfectly acceptable but were reverted by the other editor - have come from a third user), but am unclear about how I would go about soliciting such an opinion. Given my experience with the other editor, I'm concerned that asking that a third party get involved would tempt him to accuse me of sockpuppeting, vandalizing, or violating another Wiki rule - although I don't know what provisions are in place to mediate such disputes or accusations.

Thanks again for your attention

I've made a report at Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard#Coatracking, editorializing, and edit warring on Employee assistance programs. —KuyaBriBriTalk 18:12, 25 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Dear Author/Cknoepke

My name is Nuša Farič and I am a Health Psychology MSc student at the University College London (UCL). I am currently running a quantitative study entitled Who edits health-related Wikipedia pages and why? I am interested in the editorial experience of people who edit health-related Wikipedia pages. I am interested to learn more about the authors of health-related pages on Wikipedia and what motivations they have for doing so. I am currently contacting the authors of randomly selected articles and I noticed that someone at this address edited an article on implantable cardioverter-defibrillator . I would like to ask you a few questions about you and your experience of editing the above mentioned article and or other health-related articles. If you would like more information about the project, please visit my user page (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Hydra_Rain) and if interested, please reply via my talk page or e-mail me on nusa.faric.11@ucl.ac.uk. Also, others interested in the study may contact me! If I do not hear back from you I will not contact this account again. Thank you very much in advance.
