May 2016[edit]

Hello, I'm Bkarcher. I noticed that you recently removed some content from University Bible Fellowship without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

This is your only warning; if you remove or blank page contents or templates from Wikipedia again, as you did at University Bible Fellowship, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Credibility is not obtained by erasing what others say about your group Bkarcher (talk) 19:07, 24 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at University Bible Fellowship shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

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.

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Widr (talk) 19:45, 24 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You need to discuss your deletion on the talk page rather than just continuing to delete it. The material may or may not stay in the article after discussion, but I don't see anything there that justifies edit warring to keep it out. Meters (talk) 19:51, 24 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
