December 2009

Please do not add content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did to Leib Tropper. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Misplaced Pages:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Jayjg 04:12, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Please stop adding unreferenced controversial biographical content to articles or any other Misplaced Pages page, as you did at Leib Tropper‎‎. Content of this nature could be regarded as defamatory and is in violation of Misplaced Pages policy. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Jayjg 02:03, 16 December 2009 (UTC)

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you add defamatory content, you will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Jayjg 20:52, 17 December 2009 (UTC)

Look, we have very specific policies about reliable sources. In particular, we need to take very special care with biographies of living people. Therefore, we cannot include sources that don't meet our reliable source policy. This has nothing to do with any desire to suppress information. But we can't do this. If you want this to be included the proper thing to do is to get a reliable source that includes these. For example, a newspaper or such. Otherwise, we can't have them here. JoshuaZ (talk) 05:40, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

You have been temporarily blocked for continually adding poorly sourced negative material to biographies of living people. When your block expires, please ensure that you adhere to Misplaced Pages's sourcing policies. Thank you. Jayjg 05:44, 18 December 2009 (UTC)

Alleged revocation of conversion

This is discussed on the Talk page. If you have an opinion, give it there. -- Zsero (talk) 20:22, 20 December 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages 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) 05:55, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

Warning - BLP

Jewcy is not a reliable source, and may not be used as a source on a BLP. -- Zsero (talk) 19:10, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

2nd warning. Jewcy is not a reliable source for a BLP. The Jewish Week is the only reliable source, though a weak one, for the allegation. Tropper's press release is a reliable source for his response. Stop adding Jewcy. If you don't like Tropper's response being quoted, then the whole allegation can go. -- Zsero (talk) 19:32, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

3rd warning. Stop adding Jewcy as a source on a BLP. -- Zsero (talk) 19:49, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

3RR on Leib Tropper

Your recent editing history at Leib Tropper shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you 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 do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
