I removed your warning at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. The reason for the warning is that you should try to keep the text neutral and you should talk to him first instead of reporting it immediately. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:41, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
Oh, and I left him a note. I really don't think he should call your edit vandalism. That is a bit harsh (a user test, not knowing to use sourced material, maybe but vandalism may be a bit harsh). If you want to respond further, please post a comment on my talk page. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 08:47, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
ay, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding that we encountered last night. You were correct, your contribution was not vandalism. I left you a message on your userpage to reflect that. Unfortunately I accidentally included "vandalism" in the edit summary for the page. The truth is that although your contribution is valid, it needs supported by third source references to be valid. If you experience any further problems with editing in the future, feel free to leave me message on my talk page. I apologize for this inconvenience and misunderstanding, I truly hope you continue to contribute to Wikipedia. Matthew Brandon Yeager (talk) 20:37, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make any unconstructive edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant warnings.
