This is the only warning you will receive. Your recent vandalism to George Washington was profoundly malicious. The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.  G.He 01:59, 6 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

You've violated the 3 edits rule to the George Washington page and YOU will be reported.--Gbdill 02:06, 6 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Reverting your vandalism does not fall under 3RR. G.He 02:09, 6 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Block

edit

Hi, you've been reported for a 3RR violation and have been blocked from editing, though I have to say your edits were arguably vandalism. When you return from the block, please try to find a compromise on the talk page. You may also wish to review the content policies: WP:NPOV, WP:NOR, and WP:V. As this is your second block in two days on the same article, the next one is likely to be longer. Many thanks, SlimVirgin (talk) 05:33, 6 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
