Hi Liam, |
|||
You've inserted some material that has been challenged by other editors. In such cases, it is necessary to participate in a talk page discussion to push and back up your point, and hopefully gain consensus for the edit you're making. Once consensus is made, you are free to make the edit. |
|||
However, you can not simply revert and reinsert the material while such a discussion is taking place. It is against Wikipedia policies, and can have negative consequences, which we wouldn't want. |
|||
Hope it helps. Let me know if you have any questions. |

Murray Bookchin
HI LiamFitzGilbert -- You just made a change to the Murray Bookchin article which you checked with a "minor edit" flag and described as "restore section accidentally deleted". Can you please identify where this was previously, and how it was deleted? Because it looks like new content to me, and I hope that you are not putting in new content of a highly political nature that is described in such a way to hide what has happened. --Lquilter (talk) 12:53, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Talk page
Hi Liam,
You've inserted some material that has been challenged by other editors. In such cases, it is necessary to participate in a talk page discussion to push and back up your point, and hopefully gain consensus for the edit you're making. Once consensus is made, you are free to make the edit.
However, you can not simply revert and reinsert the material while such a discussion is taking place. It is against Wikipedia policies, and can have negative consequences, which we wouldn't want.
Hope it helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
