October 2013

Hello, I'm SatuSuro. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Bushfires in Australia without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry: I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, you can 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! OK - you might have a point to make about the immanent report, but simply removing the link, and a reference puts you into WP:3R and WP:NPOV territory - please read up about both if you do not want to get blocked, down the line satusuro 09:09, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi SatuSuro, the explanation is in the climate change section of the talk page, moved the citation from the introduction to the climate change sections and edited it for brevity.

EDIT WAR WARNING

Your recent editing history at Bushfires_in_Australia shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Please use the "discuss" part of WP:BRD, unless you wish a complaint to be filed at the edit-war noticeboard. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 16:21, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
