Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
No edit warring or sock puppetry.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

The following is the log entry regarding this message: Stonewall riots was changed by Mputch (u) (t) ANN scored at 0.860453 on 2014-06-25T23:41:11+00:00 . Thank you. ClueBot NG (talk) 23:41, 25 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Stonewall riots shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

You reverted again after the warning above: you could be blocked for edit-warring or disruptive editing. Since you've stopped inserting your own made-up term into the article, I'll leave it there. See the discussion (that you initiated, thank you) at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject LGBT studies. Even better would the talkpage at Talk:Stonewall riots. We understand your point, but reverting and insisting on it isn't how things get changed, particularly on a featured article that has been extensively reviewed. We talk about it and provide references to back up our proposals. If the reversions resume, you can expect sanctions to be imposed. Acroterion (talk) 12:11, 26 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
