June 2010[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from John Prescott. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Probably a good idea to review the Talk page discussions before removing a consensus position. Rodhull andemu 23:53, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:BRD, the large part of your edits are being reverted by other editors over a range of articles. Best to discuss things first if you think something is controversial. If any experienced editor reverts then you should discuss not edit war. --Snowded ^TALK 18:34, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I see you didn't read the above note. Please respect Wikipedia conventions and observe WP:BRD. If this pattern of editing continues you will be reported for edit warring (its not restricted to 3RR) --Snowded ^TALK 21:02, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --John (talk) 21:22, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Community restrictions[edit]

The article Ulster, along with other articles relating to The Troubles, is currently subject to active arbitration remedies, as laid out during a previous Arbitration Enforcement case that closed in October 2007, and was amended by community consensus in October 2008. The current restrictions are:

All editors on Troubles-related articles are directed to get the advice of neutral parties via means such as outside opinions.
All articles related to The Troubles, defined as: any article that could be reasonably construed as being related to The Troubles, Irish nationalism, and British nationalism in relation to Ireland falls under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per day). When in doubt, assume it is related.
- Clear vandalism, or edits by anonymous IP editors, may be reverted without penalty
Editors who violate this 1RR restriction may be blocked without warning by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.

If you are a new editor, or an editor unfamiliar with the situation, please follow the guidelines laid out in the above link. If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it on this talk page first.

Hi Irvine[edit]

You really shouldn't be evading your block like this. This was the clincher though it would have been obvious anyway even without that slip. How do you want to proceed from here? --John (talk) 23:42, 15 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As you haven't denied my suggestion above, but have instead continued with the problematic edits that drew my attention in the first place, I've raised your sockpuppetry and block evasion at WP:ANI. Sorry. --John (talk) 02:39, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Who's this Irvine character? There's naebody here but us stauners....Dreary Steeples (talk) 00:31, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
