Hello, I'm Chaheel Riens. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Sarah Silverman, but you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Chaheel Riens (talk) 20:11, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be engaged in an edit war with one or more editors according to your reverts at Sarah Silverman. Although repeatedly reverting or undoing another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a loss of editing privileges.

Please go to Talk:Sarah Silverman, where a discussion has started on these sources. Joseph2302 (talk) 20:16, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Additional. I see you're a brand new editor, so let's reset the page, and point you to some links that may help you understand how things work in these here parts. I'd also recommend you head over to the Help Desk, as that's a font of knowledge as well. Chaheel Riens (talk) 20:21, 23 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
