[edit]

There seems to be an edit war happening on the article about Oswestry School. Both of you need to stop the edit war and discuss the problem, either on the article's talk page or on the talk page of the other editor. You both need to be aware of WP:3RR. - David Biddulph (talk) 10:57, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I fail to understand why you are attempting to either vandalise or censor the article about Oswestry School? It has been announced to parents that Bellan House will no longer be a junior school - this is notewothy and therefore includable. Alphaceo (talk) 11:11, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Read the rules regarding deletion of other's posts on Talk Pages - you are at risk of being banned: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:TPO#Others.27_comments — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alphaceo (talkcontribs) 14:57, 15 April 2013‎ (UTC)[reply]

You ought, perhaps, to read WP:TPO more carefully. Whose user talk page is this? Who removed the comments? Who is allowed to? Do you really want to get into an edit war here as well as on the article and on its talk page? Though Wikipedia:Don't restore removed comments is an essay rather than a policy, it is widely accepted by the community, so I would recommend that you stick to it. - David Biddulph (talk) 16:00, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry David Biddulph, if your comments are directed to me, I fail to see the point that you are trying to make? My comments referred to Testcase41' deletion of comments from the Oswestry School Talk page. Testcase41 is attempting to continue the edit war. I merely was pointing out that a discussion on the Talk Page was, exactly that, a discussion to try to best work on the article. DanielCooling OSICT and I reached an agreement as to text. Testcase41 has sought only to continually cause trouble and refer to me as 'pest' in each edit.

These are MAJOR changes proposed at Oswestry School. Changes that will have a huge impact on the history of Bellan House and of Oswestry School if they happen. They are noteworthy, newsworthy and in the public domain although, clearly there is a large movement trying to suppress this at any cost. Alphaceo (talk) 16:15, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The editor whose talk page this is, Testcase41, deleted comments (from me and from you, as it happens) from this page. The editor was perfectly entitled to do so on his own user talk page. You reverted that deletion; you should not have done so. Is that clear enough?
You are correct that Testcase41 should not have deleted your comments from Talk:Oswestry School and you were entitled to add them back as you did. He or other editors can reply to your comments there.
To move to your point about the article itself, you agreed some words with DanielCooling OSICT but as far as I can see you are now trying to put some different words into the article, though you say that they have been agreed with the school. I suggested earlier that you might usefully wait until decisions are made, and published in reliable sources, before amending the article further, but your edit war apparently continues.

Thank you for confirming that I was right to undo Testcase41's deletion from Talk:Oswestry School.

I was not trying to add additional words, I was trying to undo the bizarre reference to the 'space audit' (for which there was no reliable source).

As to an 'edit war'; not from me but let's just see what Testcase41's next move will be now. Alphaceo (talk) 17:31, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Incidentally, whilst I acknowledge that Testcase41 was right to remove both of our comments from HIS page, it was the "Pest" insult that I objected to. Alphaceo (talk) 17:40, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
