== Barack Obama ==

Please do not make contentious edits, particularly not to the Barack Obama article. The editor reverting your first edit referred you to the talk page, where you can see extensive discussion of the matter of Obama's racial heritage. This is a particularly sensitive and important topic, in a prominent article, where it has been very hard to enforce stability. Given all of these factors, people will be particularly sensitive to [[WP:EW | revert warring]], as a result of which you could potentially be blocked temporarilyfrom further editing for a short period without the usual amount of advance warning, so as to prevent disruption to the article. Consider this a friendly notice - I agree with the sentiment I think must be behind the edit, and am merely warning you that repeating it could be a problem.

This has been done under [[WP:CSD#A1|section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader.

Well how the hell does that make any sense? How is African American a 'race' when it applies to people like colin powell that are probably more than 50% european, it isn't my bloody opinion its fact. That is simply incorrect popular opinion that he is african american. It's like how Lewis hamilton has been refered to in american as African American! I mean how the hell does that make sense, he's from the UK, has one caucasian parent, one parent from Greneda... the truth is Anerican definitions are MESSED UP! ([[User:Invertedzero|Invertedzero]] ([[User talk:Invertedzero#top|talk]]) 18:13, 16 September 2008 (UTC))

Lewis Hamilton is not known very well in the U.S. be he isnt refered to as African American in the U.S., hes refered to as Black British. Citizens of the U.S with sub-saharan African ancestry is either African American or Black American. I didnt make up the U.S. government terminology on race/ethnicity, I only abide by it. Powell is widely known in the U.S. as African American. He ethnically identifies as African American in all of his public speeches and writings and has never alluded to having anything to do with the Carribean.

Barack Obama edits

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Barack Obama, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Barack Obama. Your edits appeared to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

Oops. Sorry to duplicate another editor's notice above - that was a 2-for-1 caution I guess. Wikidemo (talk) 03:50, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Barack Obama. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Beve (talk) 04:06, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
