You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. 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. Gamaliel (talk) 16:02, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your approach

[edit]

You have a valid point re: Donald Luskin - we should not cite blogs in a biographical article. However, you seem to be making that point in a highly counterproductive manner, by vandalizing the biography of a Wikipedian with whom you disagree and by metastasizing low-quality content into various articles explicitly to make a point.

Regardless of the validity of your original point, abusing Wikipedia's process to "prove" it is disruptive. I'm not going to block you from editing at this point, but please consider this a final and only warning: edits like this are a completely inappropriate way of resolving a dispute. Please take a look at our dispute resolution policy, and consider making your case at either Talk:Donald Luskin or taking it to the biographical noticeboard if you're having trouble. People will generally take sourcing issues on biographies quite seriously, so simply make your point without shooting yourself in the foot in the future.
