You have repeatedly added inaccurate and unsourced information. That is a violation of Wikipedia policy. McGraw was disciplined by his licensing board, but his license was not suspended. READ THE ARTICLE: "The Texas State Board of Examiners of Psychologists imposed disciplinary sanctions on McGraw." Disciplinary sanctions, not license suspension. For more details you might actually try reading the sources cited in that paragraph. If you make the same change in the article again without adding a legitimate citation, you are vandalizing Wikipedia, which will be reported to an administrator and result in a block from editing.

FINAL WARNING
[edit] This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Phil McGraw, you will be blocked from editing. Ward3001 (talk) 03:45, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Phil McGraw. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Ward3001 (talk) 03:51, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- In particular, please note that this appears to be a biographical article about a living person, which would indicate that its content is subject to the biographies of living persons policy -- unsourced negative or contentious material should be removed on sight until reliably sourced. Can you provide such sourcing? – Luna Santin (talk) 03:58, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- Of course. Please take this matter to the Phil McGraw talk page where it belongs.--Travelingman (talk) 04:00, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks. – Luna Santin (talk) 04:23, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit]You are the editor who is making the change. It is your responsibility to provide a citation indicating that his license was suspended, which you will not be able to do because his license was never suspended. There is no need to discuss on the talk page when the information already in the article is well sourced, and you are adding unsourced information. This article isn't about your interpretation of what you think the Texas Psychology Board did; it is about what the board actually did. You have provided no citations, in violation of WP:V and WP:OR, yet you continue to revert. You are violating Wikipedia policy. Also note administrator Luna Santin's message above.

- Terrific. Citation and quote has been added. How's that working for you? Have a great day! --Travelingman (talk) 04:19, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- Where's your citation that his license was suspended? You post that one while I check out what you just changed. Ward3001 (talk) 04:25, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- Although numerous commentators have said that he was suspended, I agree that the board did not actually use the word "suspended" when they sanctioned him. I will fix that section accordingly. In the future, you should address issues such as this on the Phil McGraw talk page. Have a great day!--Travelingman (talk) 04:29, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

- Let me repeat this slowly so that even you can understand. It is not necessary to discuss on the Talk page incidents of vandalism, which includes repeatedly reverting sourced information without providing a contrary source. And that is exactly what you did when you repeatedly changed a heading to "Suspension of License to Practice". Read Luna Santin's message: per WP:BLP, such information on bios of a living person should be immediately reverted without discussion. Don't lecture me on when to use the talk page until you learn Wikipedia's policies on verfication and edit warring. This is my final message to you unless you begin a new round of vandalism. I've wasted enough time needlessly battling ridiculous edits. Ward3001 (talk) 04:34, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
