July 2015[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at the welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

my edit[edit]

It was very constructive. It is true facts about the baby. Cthornley85 (talk) 20:37, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cthornley85 - While factual, the earlier version was better from a grammatical standpoint, as well as being more accurate. On Wiki, more accurate and better grammar will always be preferred. Also, as General Ization as already pointed out, you are in violation of a pretty big principle on Wikipedia: the 3RR rule. If you revert something twice, and still can't reach an understanding through the edit summaries, you should open a discussion on the talk page of the article in question. Not on your talk page, and not on the other editor's talk page (although you can open it on the other editor's talk page, it's better on the article's talk page). If you violate the 3RR rule, you chance being blocked from editing for a period. Just a friendly heads up. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 03:13, 18 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

July 2015[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at 19 Kids and Counting. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges. Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 01:49, 18 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that you have already far exceeded the three-revert rule (3RR), so would be well-advised not to continue. Your edit is being reverted because it ("and baby #4 real soon") uses a non-encyclopedic, informal tone which is inappropriate here. When five different editors have reverted your edit, you should begin to think about asking why (on the article's Talk page), rather than persistently repeating your edit.

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion[edit]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. The thread is Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:Cthornley85 reported by User:General Ization (Result: ). Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 02:47, 18 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Banned[edit]

I really dont want to be banned. So just because my grammatical use is not the best, I might get banned. I have seen many errors grammatically written. How is mine not correct? These are acurate facts just saying. Cthornley85 (talk) 04:35, 18 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

People are not blocked from editing (the correct term, to be banned means something else here) on Wikipedia for making grammatical errors. They are blocked for violating policies, and for not editing collaboratively with other editors. This includes not following consensus, which, in a nutshell, means that if 5 different editors disagreed with your edit, even if it had been grammatically correct, you should stop asserting it and possibly bring it up for discussion on the article's Talk page (not your Talk page). Most specifically, you should not edit war over it, which you have done (consequently the report here, to which you have not yet responded). Please take the time to read the articles at the links in this message carefully for more information on these policies. General Ization ^Talk 04:47, 18 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Annoyed[edit]

I did respond. Well if people cant add there edits and people who advert them, then whats the point of being a part. Im done. Im not going to be a part anymore and I will not recommend this to anyone. You people are not very good editors or people in general. You are rude and worthless. My editing is better and grammatically correct. This site is stupid and dumb. Goodbye! Cthornley85 (talk) 04:55, 18 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

July 2015[edit]

Hello, I'm General Ization. I noticed that you made a change to an article, 19 Kids and Counting, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
