Edit warring at Protective distribution system

edit

PDS Expert, see WP:AN3#User:PDS Expert reported by User:Acroterion (Result: ). If you continue to behave this way you will most likely be blocked from editing Wikipedia. There may still be time for you to respond in the linked discussion. EdJohnston (talk) 15:46, 15 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Protective distribution system. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. SudoGhost 16:57, 15 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

It's not up to other editors to verify the information for you, if you wish for the information to be included in the article, the onus is on you to provide this verification, and use it as a reference to support the information. Otherwise, any editor can remove the content. - SudoGhost 17:00, 15 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Needs sources

edit

None of the links you placed on Protective distribution system verify the content in this edit. Please provide an inline citation that directly verifies the content, or it will be removed. Thank you. - SudoGhost 23:12, 15 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. 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. Acroterion (talk) 15:20, 17 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

You were blocked for this behavior, and several editors have objected to these contributions. Please discuss on the talkpage if you feel there is good reason for inclusion, and that the proposed edits do not represent promotion of a brand or a product. Several editors feel that the edits are promotional in nature, which is not acceptable. If the content is appropriate, you should be able to substantiate it by specific reference to reliable third-party sources that directly substantiate the content in a manner that can be verified by anyone, layman or expert. If this continues with no attempt on your part to undertake appropriate discussion, I will refer it back to AN3 for a longer-term action. Acroterion (talk) 15:25, 17 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Concerning the unsourced content

edit

If you don't provide a source that verifies the information, it won't stay in the article. Edit warring to keep it there isn't going to keep it in the article, and if you continue to hit 'undo' without providing some kind of source, you're very likely to be blocked for edit warring again, especially because you were just blocked for making the same edits. Please provide something that verifies what you're putting in the article. - SudoGhost 15:22, 17 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
