Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits.

Speedy deletion nomination of Sundown Mountain[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Sundown Mountain requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Dennis Brown (talk) 02:25, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification[edit]

Hi. When you recently edited United States presidential election, 2012, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Constitution Party (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Constitution Party of Florida[edit]

Hello, there is currently a discussion over the notability of this article (and perhaps other similar articles) you created. If you wish to discuss this matter, please do so at the article's talk page. Royal Mate1 02:10, 18 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

American Third Position Party[edit]

Hello. Wikipedia's policy is that all information, especially if it is contentious or controversial must be supported by a link to a reliable source. In the information you are trying to add to this article, only the information on the presidential election is actually sourced at all, which is why I and another editor have been removing the rest of it. When another editor reverts your edit, the proper step to take is to discuss it on the article talk page, not to continue to try to undo the revert. (See WP:BRD). When you try to do this you are edit warring, which can lead to your being blocked from editing. Please do not attempt to reinsert the information with a citation from a reliable source. Thanks, Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:17, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry you cannot list candidates you ran on another party's ticket without presenting a source that says the candidate was representing the American Third Position. I have removed these two, you can restore them when you have those citations. Also there was no gubernatorial election in West Virgina in 2011. If you were referring to a primary of some sort, you'll need a source to support that as well. Beyond My Ken (talk) 02:34, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There was an election for governor in West Virginia in 2011, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Virginia_gubernatorial_special_election,_2011. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngfan1 (talk • contribs) 21:43, 20 December 2012‎ (UTC)[reply]

I stand corrected. The reference was wrong though - I've fixed it. Beyond My Ken (talk) 02:55, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The course you cited for the presidential results gave 2,703 as the tally, so I reverted your change of it to 2,714. If you have a more official source that supports 2,714 you need to change the reference. Thanks, Beyond My Ken (talk) 22:59, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

THe new source you provided is a blog, and per WP:BLOGS, we don't consider them to be reliable sources. You need to find a reputable news agency of some sort as a source. Beyond My Ken (talk) 23:10, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

December 2012[edit]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Please make sure to include an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! Evanh2008 ^{(talk|contribs)} 05:58, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at American Third Position Party shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three 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—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You've actually gone past 3RR now. And note that as it says, this is not an entitlement. Dougweller (talk) 06:04, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of Edit warring noticeboard discussion[edit]

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 14:27, 22 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a short time for your disruption caused by edit warring and violation of the three-revert rule. 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 would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} below this notice, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
