[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Rob Dibble. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Rob Dibble, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

The text you deleted is sourced. You will need to provide a better summary than "vandalism" to explain the deletion. Please be specific. If the sources don't back up the claims, say so. Basically, the easier it is to see why you're deleting the text, the more likely that other editors will agree with you and endorse the change (if it's appropriate). —C.Fred (talk) 05:38, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]


And for the record, I've checked the links, including the Washington Post columns—and the sources back up the text. If you really think the text shouldn't be there, you're welcome to start discussion about it at Talk:Rob Dibble. However, you will need to wait until consensus emerges to remove the text before removing it again. —C.Fred (talk) 05:43, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Rob Dibble. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

  1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
  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 continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. OrangeMarlin Talk• Contributions 05:45, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.
