Actually yes, that site is spam. It has been extensively promoted by a paid editing ring, and it's not a neutral site, it's a libertarian think tank.

== Edit warring ==
Your latest revert at [[quotient rule]] is the third revert of my edit within the past 24 hours. In my (non-expert) opinion, this violates [[WP:3RR]]. Please revert your own latest revert to avoid my reporting of this issue. I had already started a new section on the article's [[Talk:quotient rule#one little comma|talk page]] to avoid this. Please offer any counter arguments there instead. --[[User:Deacon Vorbis|Deacon Vorbis]] ([[User talk:Deacon Vorbis|talk]]) 00:35, 24 April 2017 (UTC)

== BLP policy ==
Hello Jrheller1,
The talk page of an editor who has just been warned about a [[WP:BLP|BLP]] violation is not the proper place to discuss BLP policy in general, or to debate hypotheticals. If you want to discuss the specific article in question, [[Talk:Tyreek Burwell]] is the proper place. To discuss the policy more broadly, try [[Wikipedia talk:Biographies of living persons]].

[[File:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px|alt=|link=]] Please stop your disruptive behaviour. It appears you are purposefully [[Wikipedia:Harassment|harassing]] another editor. Wikipedia aims to provide a safe environment for its collaborators, and harassing other users, as you did on [[:Merge sort]], potentially compromises that safe environment. If you continue behaving like this, you may be '''[[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''. <!-- Template:uw-harass3 --> –[[User:Deacon Vorbis|Deacon Vorbis]] ([[User Talk:Deacon Vorbis|carbon]] • [[Special:Contributions/Deacon Vorbis|videos]]) 21:25, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
:In more detail, this is the second time you've found an article to undo one of my edits after our recent confrontation at [[Talk:Quotient rule]]. The first was at [[Triangle wave]]. I let that one slide, but now that you're doing this a second time by insisting on undoing yet another edit of mine at [[Merge sort]], I'm not going to be willing to look the other way. The hounding is made worse by the fact that there was even a discussion about the very issue, and you didn't even bother to make any attempt to contribute. Just calling my removal of the image a "bad edit" is unconstructive, especially without discussing the matter. From my perspective, this feels like retribution for the [[Quotient rule]] stuff, and I can make a pretty strong case for that at [[WP:ANI]] if it comes to that. I'd rather not and just see you going on your way editing whatever you're actually normally editing.

[[File:Stop hand nuvola.svg|30px|left|alt=Stop icon]] Your recent editing history at [[:Merge sort]] shows that you are currently engaged in an [[Wikipedia:Edit warring|edit war]]; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. 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 [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to work toward making a version that represents [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See [[Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle|BRD]] for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]]. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary [[Wikipedia:Protection policy|page protection]].
'''Being involved in an edit war can result in you being [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked from editing]]'''—especially if you violate the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]], which states that an editor must not perform more than three [[Help:Reverting|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.<!-- Template:uw-3rr --> [[User:Oshwah|<b><span style="color:#C00000">~Oshwah~</span></b>]]<sup><small><b>[[User_talk:Oshwah|<span style="color:blue">(talk)</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Oshwah|<span style="color:green">(contribs)</span>]]</b></small></sup> 23:43, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
