Anonymous IP editors

Hi Sempi. On the subject of anonymous IPs editing, it is a very complicated subject! IP addresses can be banned, but usually aren't as different people can share an IP. So if you ban one person, you might actually be banning several, including innocent parties. To be honest I'm not an expert on the subject, have a read at Wikipedia:Blocking policy if you're looking a fuller explanation.

I tried clicking on the links you added and my work server denied access. So I'm assuming people with parental controls couldn't access them either. Regarding the other person who removed my link to youtube, this seems to be a new policy and one I don't fully understand. But what I think the reasoning is that videos uploaded to youtube may be copyrighted and youtube provides no information as to whether they are copyrighted or not. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, both in our own articles and external links provided in articles. So linking to any of the fight videos is going to be difficult I think. Maybe inserting some text in the article stating that "the videos are available widely on the internet, on sites such as youtube and sublimedirectory" is best. I hope you're not put off editing. There are a lot of things about Wikipedia that annoy me too, mostly around copyrights too actually. More specifically around uploading images, which is a total minefield!

By the way, I added your signature in. If you end your talk page comments with four "tides" ( the ~ symbol it adds your username. It helps people to know who's saying what! Anyway, welcome to Wikipedia and I hope you stay. I'll post this on your talk page as well. Stu ^{’Bout ye!} 12:58, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Natural born citizen clause of the U.S. Constitution. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice.

Your most recent revert was here. I know you already know about this incident — and that you believed you were reverting vandalism and were therefore exempt from 3RR (a claim which would probably not be accepted if push came to shove) — but I'm putting an official warning here on your talk page so that no one can validly argue that you were not properly notified of the issue. Please continue any needed discussion of this content dispute on the article's talk page, seek to work collaboratively (not confrontationally) with other editors, and give others the benefit of the doubt by assuming good faith.

Please do not attack other editors, as you did on Natural born citizen clause of the U.S. Constitution. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This remark directed at Weazie appears to have been an uncalled-for personal attack. See WP:NPA and WP:CIVIL. I strongly recommend you withdraw it and apologize ASAP — or, if you firmly believe what you said was factually correct, then report your concerns without delay at the appropriate administrators' noticeboard (see WP:PNB for a list of possibilities).
