Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Circumcision. When removing content, 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 content 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.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Circumcision, you may be blocked from editing. Falcon8765 (TALK) 01:12, 4 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ths user was obviously responding to the RFC and showing support to remove HIV material from lead although an edit summary would be nice :) Garycompugeek (talk) 21:23, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Doubtful. The user made the same edit at 19:58, September 28, 2011, which was several weeks before the RfC was filed at 18:50, November 6, 2011‎. Jakew (talk) 21:37, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Well now we were debating it for months before the RFC was posted, aside from not leaving an edit summary this is far from vandalism, are you arguing we should not assume good faith? Garycompugeek (talk) 14:12, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This was the current version of the talk page at the time of TGTommyrocket's first deletion. There was no active discussion about that material, hence your theory that TGTr was responding to a talk page discussion seems implausible.
If TGTr (or indeed any other editor) continues to delete large sections of properly sourced material without any kind of explanation, (s)he's likely to be blocked. It has nothing to do with the assumption of good faith. Jakew (talk) 16:38, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I am still new to the complexities of editing controversial articles, having only used Wiki for minor edits and articles without such heated debate. Was unaware of the ongoing debate about the Circumcision & HIV situation on this page. I initially edited the large section of text based a study published in the American Journal of Preventative Medicine in November of 2010, [1] http://physics.georgetown.edu/~rmca/Elephant_in_the_Hospital/Circumcision_and_HIV_Prevention_2010_Green_AJPM.pdf. Still new to this. Sorry to be disruptive. I still feel the lede is too heavily biased toward the Sub-Saharan RCCTs and does not give enough weight to recent contrary studies as discussed in the study above. Nevertheless, the new lede is an improvement. TGTommyrocket (talk) 05:45, 9 December 2011 (UTC)TGTommyrocket[reply]
That's ok TGTommyrocket, the page gets a lot of abuse and some are more paranoid and heavy handed than is warranted, but just try to leave edit summaries and discuss things on article talk pages and you'll be fine. Garycompugeek (talk) 17:50, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, man. Noticed some other new changes in the HIV section in the lede, which seems to be getting progressively better. TGTommyrocket (talk) 19:43, 12 December 2011 (UTC)TGTommyrocket[reply]
