WELCOME

Greetings and Welcome! I noticed that your username shows up red when you post an edit -- in case you were wondering why, this is because your userpage is devoid of content. If you were to place anything at all on your userpage (text, photographs, etc.), your username would then appear blue by default. By convention, most contributing editors who intend on becoming a part of the Wikipedia family generally place information about themselves on their userpages to let people know a little about themselves. As a result, editors whose usernames are still red may (however unjustly, yet, nonetheless) appear to other editors as lacking a serious motivation in both editing Wikipedia articles as well as joining the Wikipedia community at large. Although it is not at all required, I therefore recommend that you place something on your userpage, such as information relating to your city of residence or occupation -- basically anything that will allow another editor to identify with you and peer into your mind a bit. You can check out other editors' userpages to get an idea of what is normally included (find them easiest by checking the history tab on randomly chosen yet substantial articles), and even copy/paste from other editors' userpages (modifying the information to reflect your own, of course).

You have just been blocked for 24 hours for edit warring on article on probation without a consensus on the talkpage. Dealing with such articles, always first get a consensus before editing. Greetings. --Tone 10:35, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Kosovo

I don't get it. On Talk:Kosovo you mention that you would prefer the term "country" over "region", with which I agree. But, as that word it a bit loaded, I added changed the header to "disputed autonomous region" rather than "disputed region" to explicitely state Kosovo is autonomous, but you keep reverting me.... Can you please explain your stance? --Reinoutr (talk) 17:17, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Why don't you answer my question instead of making hollow threats ([1])? --Reinoutr (talk) 17:23, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 17:21, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

3RR

Warning

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing at Kosovo. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 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. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. I am placing this explanation here, because you violated the three-revert rule with this edit. --Reinoutr (talk) 20:58, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

I've just blocked you because of the violation of 3RR rule for 24 hours. --Tone 11:18, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Possible sanctions

In a 2007 arbitration case, administrators were given the power to impose discretionary sanctions on any user editing Balkans-related articles in a disruptive way. If you engage in further inappropriate behaviour in this area, you may be placed under sanctions including blocks, a revert limitation or an article ban. Thank you. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 13:42, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Balkans articles, particularly Kosovo have been changed without consensus by Dab, Evklakis, Cinema, Brutaldelux without consensus, leading to unnecessary reversion of articles.--SpanishBoy2006 13:57, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

That does not excuse your own actions. Consider this a warning that if you continue to make accusations against other editors or engage in edit warring, I will sanction you. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 12:41, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Do the research before you make statements! I have not engaged in edit warring. I have simply reverted the non-consensus changes the aforementioned folks made. Please do research before issuing warnings, will you?! Sincerely! I am not trying to excuse anything! --SpanishBoy2006 13:18, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Yes, go ahead. Considering how someone wanted to block you outright, you should count your lucky stars. Reverting changes without consensus (at the same time, there was no consensus for your version either) is not an excuse for edit warring. Please read this policy page before justifying your edits under false criteria. Nishkid64 _{(Make articles, not wikidrama)} 13:25, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

I know I am learning fast and I love the advice I get, but sometimes Serbian POV is pushing way too far with their propaganda. And, I am just merely reacting. Threats, warnings and blocking just discourages me to make articles rather than get stuck on this. --SpanishBoy2006 10:37, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
