] Hello, and ]. You appear to be engaged in an ] with one or more editors according to your reverts at ]. Although repeatedly ] another editor's contributions may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Misplaced Pages this is usually seen as obstructing the ], and often creates animosity between editors. Instead of edit warring, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a ] on the ]. | |||
If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be ]. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the ], which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period.

== Merge tag == | |||
You're repeatedly undoing the removal of the merge-from tag at ]. If you feel strongly a merge is warranted, you need to start a Talk page discussion about it. The onus is on you to start the conversation, especially after multiple editors have expressed that the merge-from is not warranted. Aspergers is a ] which means that the edit community has reviewed the article, including its scope, carefully. If you have an argument for the merge, it would really need to be very strong. I will leave the tag up for a little while, but if no merge discussion is started, I will remove it again.

Person-first language
Hi Muffinator. Thanks for the barnstar, which I've move to my talk page and replied there, saying that of course you may quote me outside WP. Your contributions on Talk:Autism were very helpful to my understanding of this whole area. Regards, --Stfg (talk) 19:27, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
Autistic person v person with autism
I saw your comments on the disability talk page and read them to my autistic son. He agrees with you, and (without reading your comment about the term used as a noun) brought up the fact that he considers it's use like that offensive and compared it to looking at someone on the street and referring to the as black to define them.
