You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Catholic Church. 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. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 18:32, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

No, Wikipedia is not against the Catholic church per se, but Wikpedia's humanist utopian goal of spreading all verifiably and reliably sourced knowledge is at odds with the traditional information stranglehold and unquestioning groupthink maintained by the Catholic Church. If you prefer the latter, you may be interested in the Catholic Encyclopedia or perhaps the New Catholic Encyclopedia. I would not recommend Conservapedia, which "has generally received negative reactions from the mainstream media, as well as from various figures from both ends of the political spectrum, including commentators and journalists."   — Jeff G.  ツ 19:06, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

This is the only warning that you will receive regarding your disruptive edits, such as this edit you made to Catholic Church. If you vandalize Wikipedia again, you will be blocked from editing without further notice.   — Jeff G.  ツ 19:31, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

The problem

The problem is that people have been working on it for months, discussing it, and reaching consensus on what it should contain. You can't just revert back to an older version without discussing... actually, you can, per WP:BRD, but after you're reverted, you need to DISCUSS the change, not just try to wear everyone down. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:47, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Your recent edits

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 may also click on the signature button 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. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 20:57, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours to prevent further disruption caused by your engagement in an edit war at Catholic Church. 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. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|your reason here}}. Favonian (talk) 21:12, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
