Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Video design. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by some search engines, including Google. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. triwbe (talk) 22:44, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Video design. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. triwbe (talk) 22:44, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Request reason:
I was a first time user when first attempted to edit n the Video design page- therefore made a number of mistakes the first few times. I then went on to further investigate the Video Design content page and worked out how to navigate around the system of editing, history, discussions etc. I am a qualified specialist in the video design and design theatre industry. I noticed a number of notable designers in the field of video had been removed, ie designers who have had awards, high profile award nominations, high profile shows in US- on Broadway and UK ,West End Europe, Asia - of very high critical acclaim, therefore believed it was incorrect that they had been removed, so reinstated them. In fact the only designer left in the Video design page is not in fact a video designer, but a set designer who uses much video in his shows- these are different practices. Because I am involved in the theatre industry, and design, I want the video design page to reflect the correct content and indeed the correct designers. Video design is a relatively new addition to the theatre's creative team, and one which is not properly understood by the public- I simply want the page to be a correct reflection of the individuals and process' involved.
Decline reason:
"Because I am right and they are wrong" is not a legitimate argument for violating WP:3RR and WP:EDITWAR. I suggest you use the remainder of your block to read up on Wikipedia policies, particularly those related to dispute resolution, and come back tomorrow for a clean start. If you have any questions on how you should approach the situation, I would be happy to help. — Trusilver 16:13, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
