== April 2014 ==
[[Image:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|left|alt=Stop icon]] Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an [[Wikipedia:Edit warring|edit war]]. '''Being involved in an edit war can result in your being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''&mdash;especially if you violate the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Help:Reverting|reverts]] on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;'''even if you don't violate the three-revert rule'''&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to work toward making a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. See [[Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle|BRD]] for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]]. <!-- Template:uw-3rr --> '''[[User:Calidum|<span style="font-family: symbol;"><span style="color:#0d254c">Calidum</span></span>]]''' 16:58, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

==[[Gettysburg Address]]==
* The section that you are editing is the [[wikisource:Gettysburg Address (Bliss copy)|Bliss version]], which includes the words "under God", and does not bracket them. You can't change a direct quote. The question of whether or not Lincoln used these words is already covered in the [[Gettysburg Address#Usage of "under God"|Usage of "under God"]] section, and the conclusion is that most likely yes, he did. - [[User:Mike Rosoft|Mike Rosoft]] ([[User talk:Mike Rosoft|talk]]) 05:04, 27 April 2014 (UTC)

Once the block has expired, you are welcome to [[Wikipedia:Five pillars|make useful contributions]].

{{unblock reviewed|reason= I agree with everything you have said. However, the bliss copy is being presented as the only legitimate version. The other versions are presented in a format of variation from the bliss copy instead of in their entirety. I simply believe that the other versions should be presented in an equal manner.
