Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did with this edit to List of humorous units of measurement, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Favonian (talk) 21:32, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on List of humorous units of measurement. 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 several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. NotAnonymous0 did I err?|Contribs 21:35, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Upon reflection and further investigation (considering the article's subject), the edit seems in good faith, and a source has been added as requested of the contributor. I recommend these warnings be removed. Cheers, Northumbrian (talk) 22:19, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

Retracted; upon further research by others, reference did not meet WP:RS, though I do believe Greg acted in good faith. Northumbrian (talk) 22:43, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
