[edit]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Isaiah 53. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Skidude9950 (talk) 20:40, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ok. I don't want to get involved in this because I really don't care. I forgot to remove the warning when I undid my reversion of your edits. (I'm using an automatic tool) My apologies. Thingg 21:10, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I believe you are editing in good faith, you are not vandalizing, and you are honestly trying to improve the article, at least from your own perspective. That said, what you are doing now, by repetitively re-inserting the disputed information, is called "edit warring", and like "vandalism", it is another form of disruptive editing here on wikipedia. We have a rule, called WP:3RR or three-reverts, that basically says undoing the edits of other users more than 3 times in a 24 hour period is a blockable offense. At this point, it appears you have reached your limit. If you get reverted again, and you decide to re-insert the material, you will be in violation of 3RR. You may want to read WP:BRD to get an idea on how to generate discussion regarding your proposed edits. You should discuss in more detail on the article's talk page why you think your edits are an improvement, and wait for other users to respond to see if there is consensus for your proposal, or to see if there are any compromises and changes that can be made to satisfy all parties. Anyway, just sit back and relax and please stop edit warring in the live article. Take your concerns to the talk page. Hope this helps.-Andrew c [talk] 21:13, 14 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The idea isn't to wait it out and then start reverting again. Excessive reverting (or edit warring) can still get you blocked, even if it is under the 3RR limit. What you should do is go to the talk page and discuss your proposed changes with the other editors. This is a very good practice to get into the habit of doing. Instead of edit warring, discuss your proposal, and try to raise consensus. Working with the community is the heart of wikipedia. Edit warring is in essence working against the community. Once there is consensus for your proposal (or a new compromise that everyone can agree with), then the article should be edited again. But trying to re-instate your changed before there is a consensus is disruptive. Hope this makes sense, and good luck! -Andrew c [talk] 20:30, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Editor review

[edit]

Hi,

I came across your editor review. Do you intend to transclude it to the main page to get some reviews, or can it be deleted? Best wishes, – How do you turn this on (talk) 15:39, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Inviting you to WikiAfrica Incubator!

[edit]

Hey Dannyza1981,

WikiAfrica invites you to support the Africa Incubator

WikiAfrica is pleased to invite you as a self-declared African Wikipedian to evaluate the Africa Incubator. WikiAfrica has created the Africa Incubator to support and assist new authors, as they create their first articles and learn the ins and outs of contributing to Wikipedia.

The Africa Incubator is a ‘soft landing’ for new authors to develop articles that relate to Africa. It assists them in becoming compliant and knowledgeable of Wikipedia principles and rules. Based within the Wikipedia framework, the Africa Incubator is fully interactive and enables feedback, assistance and forums.

This is where we need your help! For the Africa Incubator to be successful, it needs the intervention, interaction and experience of Incubator Mentors. We are looking for a pool of active experienced Wikipedians to consistently participate in ’owning’ the Africa Incubator. Incubator Mentors will assist new comers through the editing process. They will also help test and expand the Africa Incubator, and will play a vital role in encouraging newcomers to be Wikipedians for life

Please visit WikiAfrica Incubator to give us your honest feedback and evaluation. WikiAfrica is a ground-breaking project that is designed to Africanise Wikipedia by generating and expanding 30,000 articles over two years. Find out more about this project here WikiAfrica. To get involved, contact Francis [wikipedian@wikiafrica.net] Twitter: twitter.com/#!/wikiafrica Facebook: www.facebook.com/WikiAfrica

Call for Wikipedians in Residence in Africa

[edit]

Hello,

I hope you are well and thriving!! WikiAfrica has just put out a call for two Wikipedians in Residence. One in Cape Town at WikiAfrica, at the Africa Centre; and the other for WikiAfrica Cameroon in Douala, at doual’art. If you are interested, please contact either Marilyn [marilyn.doualabell@doualart.org] for the WikiAfrica Cameroon call or Isla [islahf@africacentre.net] for the WikiAfrica position in Cape Town.

If you are not interested in applying, I would be very grateful if you could spread this call far and wide among your networks to ensure that both projects get excellent candidates. Here is the link for the information page: http://www.wikiafrica.net/two-wikipedians-in-residence-for-africa/

Best regards, Islahaddow

JavaScript RegExp problem

I noticed you have experience in JavaScript. I'm hoping you can help me with a problem I've run into writing a userscript.

Please see my post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject JavaScript#Nested RegExp.
