Hi there. It's standard to place new discussions regarding an article at the bottom of the talk page, rather than at the top where editors are likely to miss it. It's also considered quite impolite to remove the comments of other editors, even if you may disagree with them. Please don't do that again.

As to your comments in your edit summaries, I did, in fact, read through your comments. I did see the references. My comment, which you removed, did not call those references into question; in fact, I'm sure they would be quite useful to develop the article further. My statement is that your interpretation of the battle seems to be rather different than those recorded in the many scholarly sources used to develop the article, and if you have further references - such as references to your comments regarding the British killing the wounded, the statistical numbers you provide, and the other claims you make in your comments - they would be useful in determining whether they are, in fact, reliable sources that can be used to develop the article.

Wikipedia is a collaborative effort; all editors are more than welcome to edit the articles here, so long as the edits follow the guidelines of verifiability and use reliable sources. I'll include a standard welcome message below so you have handy references to other guidelines to consider while editing. Tony Fox (arf!) 22:55, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I have reported trip, I'm not sure what you have done. If both of us report it would give us a better chance of getting him suspended tempoairily, I doubt it would be permanent. I'm sure if you looked back or not, but he made some very uneeded(paticulary against you) comments, but I guess he deleted them. (Red4tribe (talk) 20:38, 16 April 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Your edits to Battle of the Plains of Abraham

[edit]

You appear to be involved in the repeated insertion of an irrelevant paragraph written in barely comprehensible English, in the middle of the article where it disrupts the narrative flow. You have termed the good faith edits of two editors as Vandalism.

If you replace the irrelevant paragraph again and persist in refusing to assum good faith, you will be reported under the Wikipedia:Three-revert rule. HLGallon (talk) 01:50, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I really appreciate your efforts to help improve the Plains article, but your edits are starting to drift into violating the neutral point of view guidelines. You're also calling good-faith efforts to work on the article 'vandalism' - please read Wikipedia:Vandalism to understand what that really is. The material regarding Howe is really not appropriate for the article, and your change to the paragraph regarding the proposed celebrations were not neutral. Please keep our guidelines in mind as you make edits here. Thanks. Tony Fox (arf!) 01:57, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You were warned. You have been reported. The report is at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Edit_warring#Plains2007_reported_by_HLGallon_.28Result:_.29. HLGallon (talk) 10:36, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
You have been blocked from editing for a short time in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule. Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first.
The duration of the block is 24 hours. Here are the reverts in question.

Don't accuse other editors of vandalism just because they disagree with you

William M. Connolley (talk) 21:03, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We aren't idiots. Don't do that again. Generally, I'd block you again for evading the block but I'm just going to leave a warning until I talk more with User:William M. Connolley. Do not edit war at Battle of the Plains of Abraham. The fact that a number of different users disagree means you don't have the consensus to move forward. It's not vandalism, it's an edit conflict. Now, I don't know what everyone's issue but I'd guess it's a concern about undue weight to the initial attack. Your addition adds a full paragraph on Howe for an article on the battle. Do you really think Howe being the general 15 years later and effects almost 20 years later are that relevant or even belong in the article before a discussion of the actual battle? Don't you see the concern? -- Ricky81682 (talk) 11:41, 27 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not idiot ?

[edit]

Obviously this page is done by amateur who can't make the difference between Howe and Johnson

This page is a disgrace of stupidity and your time is up

I will officially complain against your vandalism

It's about time wikipedia editor start to clean this racist web page

Article already re-written

[edit]

Hello, I already have a complete re-write of the Battle of the Plains of Abraham article right here: User:Mathieugp/drafts/Battle of the Plains of Abraham

Before making this draft the basis of a new Battle of the Plains of Abraham article, I wanted someone to copyedit my draft, because it is a translation from the one I wrote in French and I am no professional translator. I asked User:Magicpiano to do it because he has helped me with this in the past for other translations of mine, but he has been too busy with other things to go over it. He is now on wikibreak, but his user page says he will be back on October 12. I will ask him again then.

I also have this: User:Mathieugp/drafts/Order of battle at the Siege of Quebec in 1759
