[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Gospel. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
  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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Please discuss your concerns ion the talk page. Otherwise you may be blocked if you continue to delete content.

[edit]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 15:59, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks SineBot, I appreciate the input.GadsDad (talk) 16:41, 1 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
:-) User names that end in Bot are all(I think?) software bots that run around and fix stuff. SineBot adds signatures on talk pages when users leave them off, ClueBot looks for vandalism, etc. It won't notice your appreciation but the bot author can be reached at the bot's talk page.
