Reversions
You cannot simply undo warnings because you disagree with them. Consider replying, either here or on the talkpages of the people who are rolling back your edits, with a lucid and cohesive explanation of what you are doing and why. That will assuredly make them stop, assuming they should. --Falcon Darkstar Momot (talk) 10:58, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
I've already explained in my edit summaries.
- I don't see how what you are deleting is spam, exactly. Please elaborate. --Falcon Darkstar Momot (talk) 11:00, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
An entire section to advertise one documentary's existence with in an article on the documetary's topic is spam.
- I've had a closer look at it, and my advice is to remove only the last sentence (which I did). That there was a documentary made about this incident seems to be an important enough fact for inclusion. A bit of advice, too: usually people doing RC patrol (that is, looking at the most recent edits and getting rid of vandalism) won't think twice about reversion when an anonymous user deletes large chunks of articles (and most such decisions are made in a few seconds anyway; to be useful, we have to be fast). Creating an account might be a good idea. I hope we haven't soured you on wikipedia! --Falcon Darkstar Momot (talk) 11:06, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
