Edit warring[edit]

Editors who engage in edit warring are liable to be blocked from editing to prevent further disruption. While any edit warring may lead to sanctions, there is a bright-line rule called the three-revert rule (3RR), the violation of which often leads to a block. The three-revert rule states:

An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing other editors—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Violations of the rule normally attract blocks of at least 24 hours. Any appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside the 24-hour slot is likely to be treated as a 3RR violation. See below for exemptions.

Your recent edits[edit]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 19:16, 24 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Revert of edits[edit]

Please do not continuously make controversial edits without discussing on talk page of article. If your edit was reverted, that means there is no consensus. Please refer to WP:CYCLE. You have frequently removed factual and pertinent information under the guise that it is POV, that is in fact backed up by sources.--Education does not equal common sense. 我不在乎 19:24, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
