August 2012[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Harrigan (song), did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted (undone) by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Note that human editors do monitor recent changes to Wikipedia articles, and administrators have the ability to block users from editing if they repeatedly engage in vandalism.
ClueBot NG makes very few mistakes, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been considered as unconstructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.
If you need help, please see our help pages, and if you can't find what you are looking for there, please feel free to place "{{helpme}}" on your talk page and someone will drop by to help.
The following is the log entry regarding this warning: Harrigan (song) was changed by JeffoftheNE (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.964103 on 2012-08-04T22:03:48+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 22:03, 4 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

March 2017[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. TimothyJosephWood 17:30, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I do not believe the other user, Onel5969, was justified in undoing my comment. Can anyone please explain why you feel he was? Look at the page in question. Almost every car is mentioned, year make and model. Sometimes even COLOR. The car info I added pertains to one of the best lines in the film (We're the ones with the Imperial, and WE'RE running last???"). If only one car is allowed to be mentioned, it should be this one, the one I am trying to add.

It seems to me that the other user is trying to start an edit war.

Please read the message provided above in its entirety, paying special attention to "If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors." It's clear that you believe your edit is justified, but other editors don't agree. The next step is to discuss your desired changes on the article talk page to see if there is consensus to include the disputed material.--Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:44, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    I've done as you suggested. I'm getting no response. Am I doing something wrong?
