Gilmour

He is also a producer and has toured with Paul McCartney, and was a member in a band called Jokers Wild in his early career. He is a philantrapist too. He is best known for Pink Floyd. BTW the page has a "pending changes" type of protection so unless someone who can accept the edit to the article ie agree with you, your edit will not be added, quite simply put.

This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on other people again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Murry1975 (talk) 12:32, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Your recent editing history at David Gilmour shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three 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—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Binksternet (talk) 00:38, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

WP:OWN

Talking about ownership, please stop edit warring! I agree that your edit has been dismissed too quickly, but I'm afraid that's how it goes. At any rate, your IP will just get blocked if you continue (or the page will be semi-protected). The best thing would be to revert your last edit and comment at WT:Ownership of articles#Footnote in lead. Johnuniq (talk) 01:55, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Calidum. I noticed that you made a comment that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed. Misplaced Pages needs people like you and me to collaborate, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. This edit summary is inappropriate. Learn to play by the rules or face the consequences. Calidum 03:18, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Don't fucking revert people's edits for no fucking reason, you tosser. That's a basic requirement, and if you're not prepared to have that level of courtesy, don't expect anything in return. Now fuck off and don't post here again. 200.120.158.78 (talk) 03:40, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Edit summaries are not required. Civility is. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 11:54, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

They are required. But then you've posted here purely for the purpose of being a snotty little shit so it is no surprise that you wouldn't care about basic policy. 200.120.158.78 (talk) 11:59, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

The essay you cite says they are "always a good idea". It does not say they are required, nor is it policy (policy > guideline > essay). Civility, however, is policy. You still have access to this talk page should you wish to request an unblock. Your next personal attack will cause you to lose that (if someone doesn't choose to take it away now, that is). - SummerPhD (talk) 14:43, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

There are tens of thousands of articles that currently use the "best known as" (or similar) statement. As it is not clear that there is a consensus to change this and your opinion has met with considerable resistance, please hold off on going through the project removing this from various articles until there is some resolution the issue. Thanks. - SummerPhD (talk) 14:23, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
