History of Celtic
Hi. I'm interested in why you reverted my change here without discussion, and without even leaving an edit summary. In my opinion this makes the article worse. Specifically, I'd like you to explain why you prefer "from the island of Britain" to "British". Thanks. --Guinnog 18:26, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- I'm very disappointed you've made no answer to the above. You've also broken Misplaced Pages's three revert rule, one of the few absolute rules that we have. As you are quite new here, I'll give you this one opportunity to self-revert to the consensus version. Failing that, you will be blocked. Thank you, --Guinnog 20:57, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
Its my first time in this type of situation so I didnt know what to do with that box, I am learning as I am going.
I gave you the reason when I changed the article. Was my change incorrect? - many Celtic fans (I being one) dont appriciate having their club tagged as British and dont consider it British. In that way I consider your edit more POV than mine, stating that they are from the island of Britain conveys the same message and is a lot less controversial.
Is this wiki or Nazi germany - I am putting forward a valid arguement and you would like to ban people over that!!! thank you Vintagekits 23:02, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- I don't agree. It's a simple descriptive term, as I and another user have pointed out to you. I was serious about the block by the way. Did you read the policy I referred you to? --Guinnog 22:07, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
Firstly I dont think that an edit that is actually correct dervse a ban. Secondly I dont know how to "self-revert" it without editing it again. Thirdly dont you think I less controversial description would be better.
Just because you disagree with my description is that the end of it, does your POV stand over everything else? Vintagekits 23:15, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
