You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Jyoti Basu. 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 several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. -SpacemanSpiff 17:30, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

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.

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 31 hours for your disruption caused by edit warring and violation of the three-revert rule at Jyoti Basu. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Notacommunist (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

---

Request reason:

Hello Administrator, I'd like to request you to revert the block of editing privilege. I understand the block was put in place on the 'three revert rule' however I did start a 'discuss' page, which had no replies. I therefore feel the block shouldn't be in place.

Regards, Notacommunist (talk) 18:10, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Addition: I'd like to resume discussion on Jyoti Basu, so that a critique of the leader can be included. With my editing privilege blocked, I cannot participate in the discussion hence I request an revert on the block.

Regards,
