Hello. You appear to have made some
reverts lately. Please be aware that the
three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reverts on a single page within a 24 hour period. Rather than reverting edits, please consider using the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a
consensus among editors. The
dispute resolution processes may also help. Excessive reverting may result in a loss
of editing privileges. __

Hi, noticed your work on the Leonard R. Brand page. The improvements on the reference and notes are appreciated. DonaldRichardSands ( talk) 00:43, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
Hello and welcome. Saw your recent comment on Hrafn at the John Hartnett (physicist) talk page. He tends to attack back when attacked. You might want to stay away from doing that, unless it is very very subtle. Wekn reven i susej eht Talk• Follow 13:19, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
I am not a big fan of this ref format [1]. Currently working on a project to translate Wikipedia's top importance medical content into other languages and other wikis do not support it. [2] We at WP:MED typically use the default created by the cite tool Wikipedia:refToolbar 2.0. Thanks Doc James ( talk · contribs · email) 08:35, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
Hi. When you recently edited George Young (Presbyterian minister), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page BAAS ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi. I'm afraid the Metaphysical naturalism article you wrote seems closely paraphrased from [3]. This can be a problem under both our copyright policies and our guideline on plagiarism.
While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation – including both structure and language – are. For an example of close paraphrasing, consider the following:
The article says:
As a website that is widely read and reused, Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously to protect the interests of the holders of copyright as well as those of the Wikimedia Foundation and our reusers. Wikipedia's copyright policies require that the content we take from non-free sources, aside from brief and clearly marked quotations, be rewritten from scratch. So that we can be sure it does not constitute a derivative work, this article should be revised to separate it further from its source. The essay Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".
Please let me know if you have questions about this. -- Chealer ( talk) 18:55, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi Mthoodhood. There's been recent discussion regarding a few of your edits, and general participation, at Pseudoscience and related articles. You've made a couple edits like this recently. It may help to briefly explain what you're trying to do on the article talk page. It appears, in that edit as an example, that you've changed a reference very slightly (and indicated as much in your edit summary), and then also made a rather large change to remove content about creationism. Without hearing discussion about this on the talk page, it appears there's a lack of transparency with these edits, which is common among editors who try to sneak controversial changes in "under the radar" by masking them with normal edit summaries. I assume that's not what you're trying to do! If you could pop onto the article talk page and discuss the matter with everyone, that might help to alleviate some editors' concerns.
On another note, could you comment here about your connection with User:SmittysmithIII and User:Sacramentosam? I know you occasionally edit as the former, do you also have any connection with the latter? I assume you are the only one editing on these accounts, and not sharing them with another person, is that correct? Have you read over the general policies on this issue? (It is fine to have multiple accounts for certain reasons). Thanks! — Jess· Δ ♥ 18:38, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
