Your recent editing history at
Crouton
shows that you are currently engaged in an
edit war
.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you 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
.

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the
edit summary
. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been
reverted
. Thank you.

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to, may be considered
disruptive editing
. Further edits of this type may result in your account being
blocked
from editing.

This is your
last warning
. The next time you remove the maintenance templates from Wikipedia articles without resolving the problem that the template refers to, you may be
blocked from editing
without further notice
.

Systematically copy-pasting totally undeserved warnings on the user talk pages of other users (as you do every time you are being warned by someone, not only by me)
is
vandalism. Your behaviour clearly shows that you seem to believe that you are above the rules, but FYI you're not.

- Your notion that only one person of two engaged in an edit war is allowed to warn the other, and the other can only commit vandalism, is rather shortsighted. |

I can see that other editors have asked you to stop removing these templates and I came here after seeing a report at
WP:AIV
that you had continued to do so. However there have been no further removals after the last warning noted above - thank you for stopping these removals, which would indeed be disruptive if you continued to do so. A block would not be warranted seeing as you have stopped, but please note that if there are further instances I
will
impose a block without further warning. Hopefully however this won't be necessary. Of course if tyou have imnproved the referencing of an article, or gained consensus on the talk page that the tag is not needed, it can be removed safely.

Your three reverts to
Mate (beverage)
here
,
here
and
here
in under 24 hours indicate you are edit warring, and attempting to justify this because 3 is less than 4 and gets you "off the hook" for violating
the three revert rule
probably won't go down well. For what it's worth, I actually agree with your basic principle here, and I don't like refimprove tags myself, but the way you resolve a dispute on the tag is to discuss it, not edit war over it.

- What you were doing was not improving the encyclopaedia and was being objected to by numerous people, on numerous occasions. (By the way, there's no need to copy this discussion to my talk page as well. I'm watching this page and will reply here.)

- What I said above is that if you remove refimprove tags again without either improving referencing or gaining consensus to do so, I will block you. Other people's objections have already been made and no further objections from others will be required to trigger a block.

- That's correct. If of course I found someone maliciously or playfully slapping on templates which were unwarranted, and they continued to do so after a series of warnings, they'd be liable to be blocked too.
