::Hi Randeepa, I saw your message on the Bodu Bala Sena article, and I agree with you. I started the article two years ago, and I think it is terrible. It has a very large bias against the Buddhists, and that is not good, because articles are supposed to be [[WP:NPOV|neutral]]. But it is hard to find good information about this group in English, also I think none of the editors are Buddhist. By the way, you can add your signature by typing four tildes, like this <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> after your message. —[[User:Neotarf|Neotarf]] ([[User talk:Neotarf|talk]]) 15:30, 29 September 2014 (UTC) |

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, and [[Wikipedia:Introduction|welcome to Wikipedia]].

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]].

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Bodu Bala Sena. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Andrew (talk) 00:48, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
