NIU Shooting.

As you know, the NIU Shooting has been discussed at length already on the talk page. And, as discussed, the shooting is only relevant in the US, (maybe even only in Northern Illinois). Please use the 2008 talk page rather if you want to discuss it further.

I am also not sure why you called my revert vandalism, can you please explain. FFMG (talk) 05:28, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

(in reply to my talk page). I started a discussion about it on the 2008 talk page hopefully we will sort out what to add an not add. If we add this event then we will need to add more notable events as well.

As mentioned before, I still think you are confusing the 2008 article and the 2008 in the United States article, the shooting simply did not make worldwide headlines. FFMG (talk) 09:47, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on 2008. 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 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. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. --CalendarWatcher (talk) 05:49, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

May I remind you that the person edit-warring has been yourself, and making pleas for further discussion only after your edit-warring has been thwarted makes your message look rather silly? --CalendarWatcher (talk) 06:02, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

The burden of evidence falls upon the editor proposing the addition or change. Others (note plural) are upholding the status quo while you are trying to change it: simple, really, something your new-found friend just below doesn't seem to understand. --CalendarWatcher (talk) 07:45, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi

I too have been accused of "edit warring" by CalendarWatcher. He was reverting what I did, and then when I put it back, he was accusing me of all sorts of things. Would you tell me what happened with you. I would be most interested. Wallie (talk) 07:12, 3 December 2008 (UTC) Thanks. I have had the exact same experiences. Unfortunately, these discussions often degenerate into all sorts of threats. Then other people, quite often well intention try to solve the "dispute". They read CalendarWatch's comments about all sorts of Wiki transgressions, and "personal attacks". In fact it is him that makes the personal attacks. You are also correct in saying he doesn't actually contribute anything. He just reverts what you have done, and then when you put it back, he warns you about the 3RR rule and accuses you of "edit warring" and "reverting his work". These third parties often warn the innocent party and talk of a "history" bewteen the two users. It is very clear the tactics which this person is deploying. These are not acceptable and very disruptive to Wikipedia. I think that some people call it vandalism. Wallie (talk) 09:40, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
