William Thomas Ryder[edit]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of William Thomas Ryder, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.arlingtoncemetery.net/wtryder.htm. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page.

Sorry about that--it was my first post and I was not sure about how everything worked. Thanks for the clarification. Liam2012 (talk) 17:56, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Spelling[edit]

The women that you're thinking of are Grace Kim (not Chen) and Jayde Nicole (not Jayden). Dismas|^(talk) 17:17, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the catch! Liam2012 (talk) 17:55, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

October 2008[edit]

Please stop adding inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings. If you continue spamming, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Erzsébet Báthory_{(talk|contr.)} 17:31, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I did not know it was considered spamming because I have seen multiple external links on Wikipedia and since the posting tools allow you to post an external link it did not seem like a violation. Liam2012 (talk) 17:55, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Natalie Portman 3RR violation[edit]

You have been reported for violating the three reverts rule in the Natalie Portman article. No editor is allowed to do more than three reverts in one article in the same 24 hour period. -Duribald (talk) 19:05, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please take the time to also report the person who kept deleting my entries after I removed the external link they tagged as a violation. I was not the one waging an edit war. Nothing in my entry was a violation of terms after removing the link. So, in the interests of fairness, please report both parties. Liam2012 (talk) 19:16, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits were removed by three different editors, because the entry is a spam reference to a non-notable event (as well as link spam initially). Regardless of your opinions on this, you should have started a talk page discussion if you wanted to protest, rather than to just re-enter the passage again and again. We all make mistakes and I certainly do not intend to hold this against you in the future. -Duribald (talk) 21:12, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking the time to explain everything. As a newbie, I was not entirely sure about how things worked. I did not re-enter the passage again and again to be troublesome; I did not realize it was being removed by editors and assumed it was not appearing due to my mistake so I would try again and again. However, now that I understand the process I will definitely start a page discussion in the future. So, my apologies for the mistake, and thanks again for the understanding and explanation.Liam2012 (talk) 20:02, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours in accordance with Wikipedia's blocking policy for violating the three-revert rule at Natalie Portman. Please be more careful to discuss controversial changes or seek dispute resolution rather than engaging in an edit war. If you believe this block is unjustified, you may contest the block by adding the text {{unblock|your reason here}} below. Scarian ^{Call me Pat!} 19:26, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
