February 2015[edit]

Your recent editing history at The Empire Strikes Back‎ 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. - Gothicfilm (talk) 08:23, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Smash!

You've been squished by a whale!
Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know you did something really silly.

March 2015[edit]

Yet again, your recent editing history at The Empire Strikes Back‎, Tom Hardy and now also Richard Burton shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war.

Concern about your recent edits[edit]

Azertopius. For whatever reason, many of your recent edits have been reverted by others. For example, at The Empire Strikes Back and at Confederate States of America. I doubt that you looked around for consensus before making these changes. A long enough string of unusual edits may eventually bring attention from administrators. Thank you, EdJohnston (talk) 14:56, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Warning for uncivil comments[edit]

Please do not attack other editors, as you did on User_talk:Gothicfilm. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Please follow Gothicfilm and others' (including my own) advice with regard to using article talk pages when there is a dispute. When your bold edits are reverted with an explanation, begin a discussion on the article talk page. If you do not start doing this and instead engage in edit warring as you have been, you are likely to end up blocked from editing. Red Harvest (talk) 09:01, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
