If you keep vandalizing that page, I will ask an administrator to block you from editing (or ask an administrator to protect it to stop your vandalism). Alex 18:27, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Revert warring
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on A Perfect Circle. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute 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. (Both of you need to knock it off and discuss this without clogging up the edit history of that page.) --Dynaflow babble 19:40, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- just look at the evidence on hand (the talk page for A Perfect Circle -> Was/Is section), myself and several other people have pointed out to "Alex 101" that he is wrong about this and he still continues to edit the page to state that the band is no longer together. if you look @ the talk section of his userpage you'll see that this is nothing new and he even says that he got banned for several months for his behavior on another talk page/article. i would say he needs another ban, but i don't know how any of that works. all i know is that according to the most recent sourceable info, he is wrong, is editing a wikipedia article to reflect misinformation, and is now threatening to get me banned for trying to correct this. i've tried to clear this up in the talk page and he is being obstinant and refusing to listen to reason. so i guess now i'm just supposed to let the article remain inaccurate and completely wrong. or else i'll jget banned for trying to update it with correct information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.252.94.153 (talk • contribs)
- I've warned you both. Edit warring is unacceptable under any circumstances, and the two of you need to cool it and bring in others for third opinions if you can't agree between yourselves.

Please stop vandalizing
What's with vandalizing the A Perfect Circle page over and over again? And who do you think you are accussing me of vandalism and saying that I should be banned for life, are you on drugs? It's true that they're not active at this moment and you should be aware of that. If you don't believe me, just read the "hiatus" section and you'll learn that there's actually nothing wrong with leaving the article as "was". That section says "although many belived that A Perfect Circle was actually breaking up for good". And even if Maynard James Keenan did say they're actually coming back, that hints a possible reunion. Alex 20:29, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
