  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Social anxiety, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

  With regard to your comments on Social anxiety: Please see Wikipedia's no personal attacks policy. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Note that continued personal attacks will lead to blocks for disruption. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Gwernol 21:44, 14 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Social anxiety. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Gwernol 23:04, 14 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

If you wish to redirect the article, the proper approach is to discuss your proposal on the article's talk page and reach a consensus with other editors. Taking unilateral action once is fine, but if other disagree with you and revert your change, you need to discuss the matter with them. Attacking them, and insisting on your version of the article by edit warring is definitely not the right way to go about making a change. Gwernol 23:07, 14 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
