Edit warring notice

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Bonferroni correction. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors.

You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. I see this is not the first time that you have been warned of editwarring. --Wuerzele (talk) 18:25, 20 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:DTS
From a comment on Wuerzele's talk page: "Please stop attacking other editors. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people."

January 2017

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia without adequate explanation, as you did at Historical Jesus, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. Jeppiz (talk) 11:08, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary goading
Hi Jeppiz. Maybe try arguing issues, instead of posting threats and accusations on talk pages? Just a suggestion.

Source?

Richard Carrier argues against a historical Jesus. Might be a good source of info. Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 07:12, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Chicken or the egg

And what if someone wants to know whether the chicken egg came first? There's no reason to remove good content. Laurdecl ^talk 06:21, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The expression is "chicken or egg," not "chicken or chicken egg." But more importantly, the source you cited is a blog that is based completely on a YouTube video. Not only is that not a good source, the video doesn't even agree with your argument! In fact, the video says the issue of whether the chicken or the chicken egg came first is simply a matter of linguistics that depends entirely on whether you define "chicken egg" as the type of egg laid by chickens or as the type of egg that chickens lay. The video then ends by unequivocally stating that the "egg" came first. 23.242.207.48 (talk) 18:32, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
