== Speedy deletion declined: [[:Nation Awakes Movie]] ==
Hello 76.102.49.177, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of [[:Nation Awakes Movie]], a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: '''Not blatantly vandalism or a hoax.''' You may wish to review the [[WP:CSD{{!}}Criteria for Speedy Deletion]] before tagging further pages. Thank you. -- [[User:DeltaQuad|<span style="color:green;">DQ</span>]][[User_Talk:DeltaQuad|<span style="color:blue;"> (ʞlɐʇ) </span>]] 22:16, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=|link=]] Hello, I'm [[User:Mediran|Mediran]]. I noticed that you recently removed some content from [[:Real Love (Lady GaGa song)]]&nbsp;without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an [[Wikipedia:Edit summary|edit summary]]. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:Mediran|my talk page]].

[[Image:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|left|alt=|link=]] Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an [[WP:EDITWAR|edit war]]. '''Being involved in an edit war can result in your being [[WP:BLOCK|blocked from editing]]'''&mdash;especially if you violate the [[WP:3RR|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[WP:REVERT|reverts]] on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;'''even if you don't violate the three-revert rule'''&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's [[WP:TALK|talk page]] to work toward making a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. See [[WP:BRD|BRD]] for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]]. <!-- Template:uw-3rr --> [[User:Mark Arsten|Mark Arsten]] ([[User talk:Mark Arsten|talk]]) 01:29, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

Back from rough travel day - sorry for the delay.

This IP's claims that ''"'While I did see edit summaries about the "copyright situation," those summaries were attached to edits that did nothing more than change the image size."'' are at best a technicality. Both of these edits [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=VLC_media_player&diff=530283979&oldid=530283800] [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=VLC_media_player&diff=530281200&oldid=530280774] were clearly reinserting copyrighted material from [http://news.softpedia.com/news/Metro-VLC-for-Windows-8-New-Details-Released-310799.shtml softpedia]. It was clear to me that Marstarbartion had concerns about a copyvio and it took me all of about 5 seconds to find the source of the copyvio before blocking this IP.

The important part of BRD is the D part. Had you discussed this at all, I would have taken a very different approach. Instead, [[User_talk:76.102.49.177#THANKS_FOR_REVERTING|you tag-teamed]] with {{user|Himanis_Das}} on the edit war and [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Himanis_Das&diff=prev&oldid=530284175 undid Marstarbartion's edits on Himanis's talk page]. Just because you didn't like the user's username, doesn't mean that you have carte blanche to edit war - especially restoring copyrighted info and in the context of already having one edit war block this month.

As Bwilkins points out, there are some strange things going on at that article. If another admin wishes to unblock this user, I will not object, but I don't feel the need to do so myself as I don't feel this is an isolated incident. [[User:Toddst1|Toddst1]] <small>([[User talk: Toddst1|talk]])</small> 14:06, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

*Thanks for explaining Todd, I know it isn't easy to summarize everything in the block rationale and figured there was more than met the eye. I appreciate you taking the time. To answer the IP editor about the SPI report: Notification of an investigation is not required, and is actually discouraged in many situations, per the SPI page itself.

*To address F&A's comment on the block duration, if a user is blocked twice for the same kind of behavioral concern in a month's time (edit warring, in this case), my experience has been that a weeks block is within the range considered appropriate. I will leave the actual review in this case to another admin.
