Welcome!

Hello, Pcvcolin, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!  Chris Troutman (talk) 01:19, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

The contribution in question to which the NPOV policy was raised had to do with prophecies (with respect to the contested Trump / Gorsuch prophecies contribution). The NPOV in pertinent part states, "neutral point of view (NPOV) (...) means representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias, all of the significant views that have been published by reliable sources on a topic."

In light of the NPOV policy I will add further views published by reliable sources about the Trump / Gorsuch prophecies. The problem I see is that no matter how many sources I add, someone will continue to try to remove the content merely because they do not like the idea of the content appearing at all. Or they will remove the content because they disagree with the idea that it could be the product of divine inspiration as claimed. In any event I will add further views published by reliable sources and repost.

Hello Again!

I have pointed out that at least one of the editors who has been altering my content in the last day or so is engaging in violation of Wikipedia's policy on vandalism. This will not be tolerated.

Thank you for understanding!

Hello Again - Again!

I have pointed out that at least one of the editors, and various other persons, who have been altering my content since the beginning of February 2017 are engaging in violation of Wikipedia's policy on vandalism. As I've pointed out previously, this will not be tolerated.

Thank you for understanding!

Information icon Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at List of fulfilled prophecies. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you.
