Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Phibsborough, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Drumcondra and Cabra (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

POV

For the second time I came across an edit of you that I would characterize as POV or at least biased. Can you please keep your edits on Ireland-related articles (like Penal Laws (Ireland) and Irish War of Independence) neutral? The Banner _talk 11:51, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

August 2012

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Penal_Laws_(Ireland). 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, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
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. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. IRWolfie- (talk) 21:55, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Write neutrally and plainly

You made some edits here: [1] which contain unnecessary adjectives such as "ruthless" and "harsh". Please try and not add unnecessary editorializing, cheers, IRWolfie- (talk) 21:59, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto with these edits. RashersTierney (talk) 09:27, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for September 20

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ballybough, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Drumcondra (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
