  Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Sid Dinsdale. Thank you. freshacconci talk to me 21:10, 5 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

 

Your recent editing history at Sid Dinsdale shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. freshacconci talk to me 21:17, 5 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

BLP

edit

I have declined both 3RR reports. However, it looks like you've been using inappropriate sources for your edits. Please remember that BLP is one of the few exemptions to 3RR, and that freshaconcci appears to have legitimate concerns about the appropriateness of the sources and your application of them. Misusing questionable sources in a BLP could lead to sanctions if you continue. You have made a start on the talkpage and appear to be responding to comments there: please continue to seek consensus first before reverting. Acroterion (talk) 22:19, 5 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for your help with this issue. From what I can tell, just the Redstate source is problematic, so I will avoid that. Did you have any other concerns about sources? I believe all other changes were appropriate, but would like to make sure I'm in line with your guidance.
