Hello, Flowerrose2, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

Your work on the Rocky De La Fuente page

I appreciate your desire to enhance our page on Rocky De La Fuente, and appreciate that you might come to the subject with a passion. Unfortunately, many of your edits did not serve to help get the article to the state that Wikipedia seeks. Adding material like "Roque “Rocky” De La Fuente is living proof that the American Dream can be achieved by those who are inspired to pursue it" comes across as adding hype rather than adding real information. Making the maps bigger interferes with how the page is displayed on many devices, without making the map more informative. (Readers who want to see it larger can click on it.) Some of your edits removed useful information, like the number of electoral votes he's on the ballot for. I have undone your edits. If you wish to reinstall them, please go to Talk:Rocky De La Fuente and find consensus from other editors before doing so. And if you have any questions about editing Wikipedia, please let me know! It can take a little while to get used to some of the practices here, but I'm sure you have valuable contributions to make! --Nat Gertler (talk) 01:06, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

October 2016

Your recent editing history at Rocky De La Fuente shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

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.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Rocky De La Fuente, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. clpo13_(talk) 21:49, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
