You have been temporarily blocked for violation of the three-revert rule.

I'm sorry about the 3RR violation. I didn't know about it, but I know that's no excuse. At any rate, I knew something would eventually have to give. There has been an edit war going on between several users and 24.57.68.108. This user has been aggressively editing the Maddox parodies section of External links in order to include his website (www.thethirdbestpageintheuniverse) and exclude others. I didn't really know what to do about it, and I hoped eventually an editor would have noticed this user was partaking in malicious practices and ban him. To date, this has not happened. Not only is this user's behavior exceedingly self-aggrandizing, but his site is also largely plagiarized. If you are not offended by harsh language, you can see proof of his plagiarism here:
Since you have indicated you will abide by 3RR in future, I've unblocked you. Its somewhat symbolic, I know, since you're near the end anyway. How to try to solve this sort of problem without just reverting? Use the talk page, or if that fails there is WP:RFC where you can post a message about article disputes. William M.

3RR is a limit, not an entitlement. As you are perfectly well aware by now, those links are not welcome in that article. Add them again and you may be blocked for disruption. Just zis Guy you know? 21:06, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
