Thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any other tests you want to do. Take a look at the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our encyclopedia. MER-C 12:59, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

And the problem with the edit was?
You reverted the blocked users page. ViridaeTalk 13:03, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

This is your last warning. The next time you vandalize a page, as you did to User:Robertsteadman, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. A link to the edit I have reverted can be found here: link. If you believe this edit should not have been reverted, please contact me. ViridaeTalk 13:04, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

The vandalism was by Lo2u and MER-C both of whom removed information from the page.

Lo2u added an indefinately blocked user template, blanking the page in the process - standard policy. MER-C reverted your revert of the blanking. ViridaeTalk 13:08, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

I didn't remove the template I just reverted the information about the user which I think should remain. Not vandalism unlike blanking the page - Lo2u isn't even an admin but, if you look at his edit history, a surprisingly accomplished new user from his first edit onwards - or a sockpuppet?

Many editors edit from IPs first. Either way, if you check out every other perm blocked user as Robertsteadman is their userpage has been blanked and replaced with that message. Not entirely sure why it wasn't done by the blocking admin, but that is beside the point. ViridaeTalk 13:23, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

Rob I'm flattered. Yes I did edit from an IP for a long time before registering. But I was registered for a couple of months before I met you. Do you really think anyone would go to that much trouble? --Lo2u (T • C) 13:27, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
