Red Bull[edit]

Please come to Talk:Red Bull to discuss your changing of the origin of the drink. The current consensus is that Austria is correct; I'll explain where that comes from on the talk page in a new section which I'll create now. However, you should not just change the information back, as your claim has been challenged; continuing to just insert your preferred version without discussing on the talk page can be edit warring if you continue to do so. We have to be sure to edit collaboratively, looking for a consensus decision about what to include in articles. Qwyrxian (talk) 10:34, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please immediately stop edit warring. You must get consensus on the talk page to make that change, and you are going to need to provide reliable sources, since what you are writing contradicts our current sources. Qwyrxian (talk) 14:26, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Please do not revert again. You might eventually be blocked for reverting too many times. Let's discuss this at talk. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:32, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop[edit]

I am assuming you are reading these messages because of the giant orange bar indicating that you have messages. Please discuss the matter on the Red Bull talk page before reverting. You can't simply keep changing the article to the way you want. You must discuss and get agreement. That's how Wikipedia works. Please stop. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:37, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits[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 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) 14:41, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop changing the country of origin of the Red Bull drink to Thailand; see the appropriate section of the talk page. Note that Wikipedia has the three revert rule (a user should not revert the same article more than three times within 24 hours, except in case of vandalism), which you have broken and so you are liable to be temporarily blocked from editing. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 14:46, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is your final warning; the next time you change the country of origin without consensus on the talk page, you will be blocked from editing for revert warring. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 14:51, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Stating of your position on the talk page and going ahead with your edit doesn't constitute consensus. I have now reported you at edit warring noticeboard, and you will be likely temporarily blocked unless you promise to stop what you are doing, immediately. - Mike Rosoft (talk) 15:03, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

February 2011[edit]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hrs for edit warring, as you did at Red Bull. Once the block has expired, you're 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. Elen of the Roads (talk) 16:09, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Note I've also reverted your last edit, but only because the information had been placed in the middle of a sentence where it made no sense in English. After you are unblocked, you are welcome to discuss the correct place to add that information if you have a source for it. --Elen of the Roads (talk) 16:11, 6 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppetry case[edit]

Your name has been mentioned in connection with a sockpuppetry case. Please refer to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ontomoto for evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to cases before editing the evidence page. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:32, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Warning on logging in[edit]

Hi. Going forward, please be sure to log in when you edit. Edit while logging out as a way to avoid scrutiny or to get around the reverting policy is not allowed, and if you continue to do so you may be blocked from editing. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 01:57, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your IPs[edit]

Hello my friend. I know you feel very strongly that Red Bull is Thai. Maybe it is.

The right way to do things is to discuss it at the talk page. You were blocked for changing it again and again. Now you are getting around the block by not logging in. You can't do that. Please, let's discuss things. If you really, really want the article to say "Thailand", the only way is to discuss it and get consensus. Simply changing it again and again will never work. Others will just change it back. Best wishes and thank you. Anna Frodesiak 16:42, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked[edit]

Blocked for sock puppetry

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for sock puppetry per evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ontomoto. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but using them for illegitimate reasons is not. Once the block has expired, you're welcome to make useful contributions.

If you believe that this block was in error, and would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here ~~~~}} below, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. — HelloAnnyong ^{(say whaaat?!)} 18:49, 8 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week 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. tedder (talk) 09:28, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Stop[edit]

Your block is over, and you're right back at it. If you keep this up, you will end up indefinitely blocked. Please play by the rules. For the last time: If you want to change Austria to Thailand, you have to discuss it first at the talk page. Simply changing it again and again will never work. Discussion is the only avenue. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 09:29, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's still edit warring, even now, even today; it doesn't matter if you do it once a day or once a week--if you keep making the same change without discussing it on the talk page, then you will be reblocked for edit warring. If I see you make the same change again, I'll report you and you'll most likely be blocked for even longer. Why do this? There's no benefit to you to keep making this change, because until you get sources, it cannot stay as Thailand. Seriously, all you have to do is start a discussion. And if that discussion doesn't seem to resolve anything, there's a whole series of steps we can take called dispute resolution to ensure that the article is accurate to available sources. Qwyrxian (talk) 11:15, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Block 4[edit]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for edit warring, as you did at Red Bull. 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. tedder (talk) 12:54, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You've been blocked indefinitely for edit warring. There's only one route to becoming unblocked: by reading Wikipedia's policy on edit warring and explaining here how you will follow it in the future. Even then, I'd strongly encourage you to not edit Red Bull ever again. tedder (talk) 12:59, 22 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
