Hi
Hi there! Welcome, and I hope that you eventually decide to create an account. Anyway, I declined the speedy you placed here because the article doesn't meet any of the speedy deletion criteria (CSD). Alternatively, I nominated it at articles for deletion as a blatantly non-neutral article. Thank you for this contribution, I just wanted to let you know so you don't make the same mistake again! Keep up the good work. ceranthor 11:37, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
Sourced info
Hi there. Please your edits of mediumship on the talk page. Do not remove sourced information without a solid reason. Spritebox (talk) 13:11, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
- The edits fail to conform to notability and POV guidelines, as mentioned in my edit summary. 98.248.33.198 (talk) 13:27, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
- It is in mainstream media- just because you haven't heard of it it doesn't mean it lacks notability. Secondly, it merely gives an example, just because it actually speaks in favour of mediumship instead of against it like the rest of the article, it doesnt make it overly POV. Spritebox (talk) 16:19, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
- Writing with the assumption that the ability to speak with the dead is real is where the POV comes in. 98.248.33.198 (talk) 19:17, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Rick Joyner
Hi,
I don't know why my submission on Joyner has been removed, but I went to great lengths to insert a paragraph that provides further insight while being neutral. Would you please provide an explanation for editing out my paragraph, or provide suggestions for wording changes that are more acceptable? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Theemute (talk • contribs) 20:32, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

{{unblock|Your reason here}}
below, but you should read our guide to appealing blocks first. — Kralizec! (talk) 23:20, 22 August 2009 (UTC)![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Appointment_red.svg/48px-Appointment_red.svg.png)
98.248.33.198 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
Since when is reverting blanking vandalism considered a blockable offense? If you review the article history in question, you'll easily see that huge portions of the section Near Cyprus were being deleted. I merely restored well referenced text. It also seems rather arbitrary that only one editor was blocked for "edit warring." 98.248.33.198 (talk) 23:47, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
Decline reason:
You don't seem to understand why you have been blocked - here on Wikipedia, we have a policy against edit-warring, in which two or more users revert each other's edits three or more times in a 24 hour period. If you believe that large portions of content should be removed or wish to dispute content in an article, article talk pages are where this is to be done. Wikipedia runs on consensus - not anarchy. While you are waiting for the block to expire, I suggest you read WP:CONSENSUS, WP:3RR, WP:POV, and WP:AGF -FASTILY (TALK) 00:12, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
In regards to your questions, I blocked you for edit warring on Location hypotheses of Atlantis and not Xellas (talk · contribs) because you had been warned three times ([1], [2], [3]), while Xellas had received zero warnings. However I did go ahead and issue a 3RR warning to him [4] for his role in the edit war. I see that Xellas chose to disregard that warning by reverting the article again [5] to his preferred version, an action for which he was blocked for 31 hours [6]. — Kralizec!

Hello 98.248.33.198, this is an automated message from SDPatrolBot to inform you the PROD template you added to Blueprint for Disaster: The Unraveling of Chicago Public Housing has been removed. It was removed by Colonel Warden with the following edit summary '(remove tags)'. Please consider discussing your concerns with Colonel Warden before pursuing deletion further yourself.

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to SK PRODUCTIONS: You may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Please warn users when placing a speedy delete template on a page they created. Abc518 (talk) 22:36, 18 September 2009 (UTC)

The recent edit you made to Hollow Earth constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to remove content from articles without explanation. Thank you. — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 05:58, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- Bullshit. Removing original research is not vandalism. Next time try looking at the history, which would have shown that several other editors agree it's inappropriate.98.248.33.198 (talk) 06:01, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- Hey there. Please take it a bit easier in your edit summaries if you could; also, when you're dealing with a contentious article, could I ask that when another party is obviously edit-warring, you take a report to the three-revert noticeboard for admins to get involved? Thanks for the work you're doing, btw - I just do suggest that you ease up with your comments to others, as they are starting to border on uncivil at times. Tony Fox (arf!) 06:06, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- I filed an edit warring report on TelsaBlue here, so you don't need to do that. Other than that, I second everything Tony Fox said. Try not to go over 3 reverts in 24 hours yourself ... Cardamon (talk) 08:26, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Please stop. Wikipedia is not censored. Any further changes which have the effect of censoring an article, such as you did to Pubic hair, will be regarded as vandalism. If you continue in this manner, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Eeekster (talk) 08:34, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- You assume too much - my edit was about redundancy, not censorship. How many pics are needed to illustrate the article? 98.248.33.198 (talk) 08:39, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you delete or blank page content or templates from Wikipedia, as you did to Twenty One Card Trick, you will be blocked from editing. Eeekster (talk) 08:35, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- The coding contributes nothing to the article and is in fact completely unrelated to cards and magic. 98.248.33.198 (talk) 08:39, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- That in no way relieves you of the obligation to explain your edits when deleting content. Eeekster (talk) 08:42, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, but your lack of assumption of good faith is acceptable? HA! 98.248.33.198 (talk) 08:44, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
- That assumption is only valid until evidence of bad faith is presented. This page and the block log tend to blow it for you. Eeekster (talk) 08:47, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
Again with the faulty assumptions. Boy, you're 0 for 3 so far. Just go away. 98.248.33.198 (talk) 08:49, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
Please warn people when you undo their vandalism. --Abc518 (talk) 16:12, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
Please Warn People when you revert vandalism. This is easy when you have Twinkle installed. but I think you need a user name to use it. abc518 (talk) 18:28, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Channel 7 (musician)
Just a friendly note on Channel 7 (musician). Remember to take a look at the article history when tagging for speedy deletion -- there was a "good" version that could be reverted back to. HTH! --Fabrictramp | talk to me 23:04, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
