Block
editHello, I have blocked you from editing for 24 hours since you violated Wikipedia's Three-Revert Rule. Specifically, this was your fourth revert in less than 24 hours. While I appreciate the fact that you explained your edits on the talk page, you should reach a consensus with other editors before reverting. Please read Wikipedia:Resolving disputes for more information. Mushroom (Talk) 06:37, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
I reverted three times the vandalism of WhiteGuard. Then a sock puppet named MartinDK vandalized the article a fourth time and reported me for violating the rule! Neither WhiteGuard nor MartinDK have pointed to a single factual errort in my addition. They simply vandalized by deletion.
- I did not vandalize the article, nor did I report you (White Guard did). Also, I am not a sockpuppet.
- You boasted of having "reported" me and accused me of being a sock pocket.
- The article is not an endless list of countries that everyone who decides to edit the article can just expand. You yourself agreed that Denmark was not an Axis Power so why keep adding it to the article? I suggest that you move your arguments over to the Allied Powers page as the discussion would be much more beneficial there. I agree with you that before 1943 Denmark was not a member of the Allies but that does not make Denmark an Axis Power. Denmark tried as hard as she could to stay neutral to protect herself against the war. And for good reason.... Denmark had its share of misfortune and destruction in the past and certainly wan't interested in getting into a new and costly war. The Germans did not respect this, however, which eventually led to the end of "samarbejdspolitiken" in 1943. You make certain valid points but as long as those points do not imply that Denmark was an Axis Power they don't belong in the Axis Powers article. That is why your edits were reverted. Once again I encourage you to redirect your efforts to the appropriate articles here in Wikipedia rather than continue to launch personal attacks just because the majority overruled your views. Thank you in advance, I hope we can work together in a much more constructive way. MartinDK 09:09, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
- The Axis Powers article includes a section on Axis collaborators. I added a factual, six sentence article on Denmark. Please refer to the Royal Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs website at:
- Your own country's government concedes that Denmark was an Axis collaborator.
Personal attacks
editHello, Wikipedia has a policy called No Personal Attacks. Calling a user "sockpuppet" and referring to his/her edits as "vandalism" can be considered personal attacks. Please stop doing so, or you may be blocked again. If you have any specific evidence of sock-puppetry, report it to WP:SUSPSOCK. Thanks. Mushroom (Talk) 08:58, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
- If I violated the rules, it was not intentional and I apologize. I thought the deletion of material was "vandalism." Also, I trust you have similarly warned MartinDK who called me a "sock puppet" and accused me of "vandalism," among other outrageous behavior.
