May 2009[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Jason Jones (Humanitarian Filmmaker) has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \byoutube\.com (links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wioalqgzzxu, http://www.youtube.com/index?ytsession=NzPkSdr917z0bDWPatLloLq0qUkVQQ3-CNaV9PJZHVYbCrPgsqhW2kQ2CJqIdii9F6r8_NCQwXpExEEqp_PZy0xPEJq1KpRyUNT_or2b2Om5kFVEdCbzlt4gvxZ229wADsHLh6OYkSI-FouS4_dXUbDCGBfReElNQ2MlYH4oq-55Efu8kDThnOm9UvD_4l0tl_zu8_OY0YUq73qrnlXpCaj5HDAMjZ7aNOcX3VNMzP64e-lYZBJIFTpZeq50IikFJzEj1usc4LaTgfrtwc_zMruhQpjIUUDorlUEXLz5HtzCEVMRpwQK1fjg-7SSBocArdpMMR_g54C1uybMkrQjLC6O0_jeEetOy5GQ-ltF3kk2rdJ8N_XpdpxTRiRNnB0N4NFv78GOUWCAjyg02CvCCmhL3PudphwgmHEZzafbOVCjXP8SU6_SLtTvBWttsqG2 (redirect from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wioalqgzzxu)). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 20:53, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Jason Jones[edit]

Yes, they are the same individual, see bio this bio which ties the two together. Please undo you change so I can clean up the target article. Procedure is at Wikipedia:MERGE if you would take a glance. Regards, Chuckiesdad/Talk/Contribs 20:55, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to the page Jason Jones (pro-life activist) has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

Please do not create malicious redirects, as you did with Jason Jones (pro-life activist). They are disruptive and are considered vandalism, and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Please stop interfering with the merge of the new duplicate article Jason Jones (Humanitarian Filmmaker) into the existing article Jason Jones (pro-life activist).

Hello VeritasRanch. It looks like you agree that Jason Jones (pro-life activist) and Jason Jones (Humanitarian Filmmaker) are the same person, since you've reverted the merge and replaced it with a redirect. Your redirect is not appropriate for two reasons. First, it does not keep the content available from the redirected page, while a merge does. Second, the page you redirected, Jason Jones (pro-life activist) has been around since 2006 with multiple editors, while your target page, Jason Jones (Humanitarian Filmmaker) is two hours old, with you as the only significant contributor. Unless you are pushing a particular point of view about the article's subject, updating the existing article with your new contributions is the appropriate next step, which is what we're doing with a merge. There's no fault in not realizing there was an existing article about this person, we all miss things. Best regards, Chuckiesdad/Talk/Contribs 22:03, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Jason Jones (pro-life activist). Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page 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. Beeblebrox (talk) 02:35, 11 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
