Mariah Carey

I understand you're a new user and might not know Misplaced Pages policies and guidelines well yet. That said, you need to stop reverting the consensus-derived birthdate information for Mariah Carey. Different reliable sources give two different birth years, with People, CBS News and her hometown newspaper, Newsday, among those giving 1969. Misplaced Pages works on consensus derived from talk-page discussion — in this case at Talk:Mariah Carey. Editors do not then individually and unilaterally change consensus decisions to their own personal point of view. That is disruptive and it is considered edit-warring. Doing it once is one thing; doing it twice is problematic, and if you revert consensus again it will result in admin intervention.

We all want the same thing — to make Misplaced Pages accurate and well-cited. It works as a community that reaches consensus. As a veteran editor, I ask that you please read the Five Pillars of Misplaced Pages and understand Misplaced Pages policies and guidelines before continuing to edit. --Tenebrae (talk) 04:37, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
