[edit] 3RR

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert a single page more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. --Ideogram 18:09, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

I did not realize that Note: There is no requirement for the reverts to be related: any four reverts on the same page count. even though it is in bold on the 3RR page - I thought that the reverts had to be in a related area. I made the 4th revert (the unique one which removed the "weasel words" tag) as a good faith edit after other editors had removed all of the "weasel words" to the talk page. I have since put back the "weasel words" tag and added discussion about the removal to the talk page. 75.17.140.41 08:16, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
I was/am unable to contact Ideogram who gave the original 3RR warning as his talk page is semi-protected (protected against anonymous users - It has no edit ability for them)
If I am blocked, can the block please occur while I am sleeping?  :)
