Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent edits, such as the ones to the page Circumcision, do not conform to our policies.

Easy Doc, just because someone changes a word from "strong" to "limited" and adds "by approximately 2%" does not constitute vandalism if you happen to disagree with their editorial judgement. Okotoimako please fill free to edit Circumcision and any other page of wikipedia. Try to use your edit summeries and article discussion(talk) pages and you'll do fine, again Welcome to Wikipedia!

Dec 2011 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Frenulum breve, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Jakew (talk) 21:14, 20 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

This edit is problematic in several ways:
  • You added the sentence: "Stretching exercises and steroid creams should be used in the first instance." This is an opinion, ie., a point of view (see WP:NPOV#Explanation of the neutral point of view). Wikipedia should not assert opinions, though may be appropriate to say "so-and-so state that..." Unfortunately, no source is cited, so it also appears to be original research.
  • You then continued: "If these are unsuccessful, the condition may be treated with surgery." That's very gracious, but Wikipedia isn't in the business of granting permission for surgery. This kind of editorialising doesn't belong. Again, if you have a source that proposes a specific sequence of treatments, by all means cite it.
  • You added the paragraph: "Removal of the frenulum or circumcision whether partially or completely, are not required for this problem alone nor should it be recommended, since the foreskin is the most sensitive part of the penis [1] and cannot be replaced." This paragraph is original research. Per that policy: "To demonstrate that you are not adding OR, you must be able to cite reliable, published sources that are directly related to the topic of the article, and directly support the material as presented." Not only does the cited source not recommend that circumcision or frenulum removal should be avoided, it doesn't even mention the topic of the article — frenulum breve!

Your recent editing history at Frenulum breve shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. 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. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block.

If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. 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 may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly.

  Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Frenulum breve. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Jayjg (talk) 16:25, 21 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Please do not delete well refs content edit

This is your final warning. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 11:46, 23 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

 

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Circumcision. 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, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

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. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Jayjg (talk) 16:11, 23 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
