Edit war on James P. O'Shaughnessy (disambiguation)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on James P. O'Shaughnessy (disambiguation). 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. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. Please see the article's talk page for a discussion regarding the changes you are attempting to revert, and to negotiate a resolution. Thanks! Davnor (talk) 21:40, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

Edit War averted, un-Piping as well

Davnor, my apologies re your note for James P. O'Shaughnessy (disambiguation) The edit war was with myself, more like "friendly fire" I suppose. I was unaware of the 3-revert rule and failed horribly to make clean article postings on my first attempts. Also I failed to observe the piping rule on this disambiguation page. The former and latter also hold true for James P. O'shaughnessy (disambiguation). Though I'll have to wait to edit the piping there because I have exceeded the 3-rev/24hr on that page as well. Thank you for your help in this matter. All the best, Emerson2009 (talk) 14:36, 23 March 2010 (UTC)

No apology needed. :-) Wikipedia has many policies and guidelines, so it's easy to accidentally violate one from time to time. I know I certainly have! That's where the collaborative nature of Wikipedia comes in, so we can all help guide each other. Regarding these particular articles, I've replaced the second one, James P. O'shaughnessy (disambiguation), with a redirect to the first. Generally, it's a good idea to avoid duplicating content whenever possible, whether it's a regular article or a disambiguation page. Judicious use of redirects is extraordinarily helpful in this regard. Happy editing! Davnor (talk) 15:35, 24 March 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.129.160.5 (talk)
