Mark Bostridge

If you can not provide a reliable source, please cease the disruptive editing of Mark Bostridge. The page has citations to sources for his education at Westminster School and then reading Modern History at St Anne's College, Oxford from 1979-1984. You have asserted in the edit summaries that he did post-grad work at St Anne's and his undergraduate degree at St John's. Searching the St John's website I find no mention of Mark but several for Ian Bostridge - have you possibly confused the two brothers? Nedrutland (talk) 12:04, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Mark Bostridge. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

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 breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. --I am k6ka ^{Talk to me!} _{See what I have done} 16:57, 14 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Mark Bostridge. Jim1138 (talk) 08:12, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
