This is your Talk page where you can receive messages from other Wikipedians and discuss things with them. At the end of your messages you must put your signature by signing with four ~~~~ (just as I have done) or by pressing the button in the editor bar as shown here in the picture. By the way, you don't need to sign edits that you make in the articles themselves as those messages will be deleted. Another valuable page that may provide information and assistance is User:Persian Poet Gal/"How-To" Guide to Wikipedia. My name is Buster7. If you have any questions or face any initial hurdles, feel free to contact me on my talk page and I will do what I can to assist or give you guidance and contact information. Good Luck editing! |

You have been edit warring over the content of the article called Continuation War. The only reason I have not blocked your account is because you may not be aware of WP:3RR. A repetition of rapid reverts without and explain of your edits on the talk page and a genuine attempt to reach a consensus with other editors, will lead to administrative actions. -- PBS ( talk) 12:32, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
I have reverted your last edit to Vyborg–Petrozavodsk Offensive. It was another breach of WP:3RR. Before you make another edit to Continuation War or Vyborg–Petrozavodsk Offensive you must discuss your edits on the talk page and either convince they you are correct or try to reach a compromise with any editors who disagree with you (see dispute resolution). See also the Wikipedia essay of BOLD, revert, discuss cycle.

Hello. In case you didn't know, if information has a footnote next to it giving the source, then that information is known as cited information. In other words, if it says 52, and gives a citation, then the citation is meant to be for the number being 52. It is very unhelpful for someone to then change 52 to 51.
If you have good sources for the number being 51, then the right thing to do is to change it, and add a citation for it being 51 not 51. Please use the footnotes to explain, that Source A says it is 52 and Source B says it is 51.
In your edits [1] [2] to the article on Operation Barbarossa you changed cited information without any explanation. Do not worry. I have reverted your last edit, just as another editor reverted your first one.-- Toddy1 ( talk) 18:46, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
Please stop reverting. You have been deleting cited information from articles, and in some cases replacing it with uncited new information - often leaving the citations in place so that it looks like the citations are for the new information.
We do not mind you adding new information, providing you cite it correctly. But stop deleting good stuff that is already there.
You may well have a good case for preferring your information. Find reliable sources that back up your opinions, and then cite the arguments in those sources in the sections on casualties in the articles. It is then up to other people to find reliable sources with counter-arguments, which they can cite.
Edit warring about the infobox is not the answer.-- Toddy1 ( talk) 07:50, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
