July 2012[edit]

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Republican Action Against Drugs. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. 2 lines of K₃₀₃ 15:54, 18 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Republican Action Against Drugs. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. RepublicanJacobite_TheFortyFive 16:03, 18 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Troubles restrictions[edit]

The article Republican Action Against Drugs, 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. Thank you.

Blocked[edit]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours due to violations of both the restrictions in an arbitration case, and also the three-revert rule. Per these restrictions, you may not make more than one revert to any article related to The Troubles within a 24-hour period, and should refrain from making repeated reverts altogether. If another editor disagrees with an edit you have made, rather than repeatedly making the same edit with minor or no changes, please stop and talk to them. You may use the talk page of the article in question to discuss the matter, and if you can't come to agreement with them, seek dispute resolution. Edit warring is not an acceptable method of settling disputes. Please take the time while you are blocked from editing to review the policies that I've linked here, especially those regarding edit warring. Also please note that we do not accept personal experience as a basis for article material, but only reliable published sources. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 21:27, 18 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I should also note: If you have any questions while you're blocked, you can still edit this page during the time you are. If you're prepared to slow down and start talking rather than reverting, or want to appeal the block for any other reason, please place {{unblock|reason here}} on this page to request to be unblocked. You may want to read the guide to appealing a block first. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 21:35, 18 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Further to this, "citing conversations with former members ,various testamonies from former drug dealers and ordinary community residents in Derry" is not permitted on Wikipedia, it is original research and can't be added to the article. 2 lines of K₃₀₃ 07:43, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
