== NBC Nightly News article again ==

Hi. Apparently your edits earlier today were removed again, this time by a completely editor. Even though you only login to Misplaced Pages once a day, I feel obligated to give you this warning:

I'm not sure you have heard of the ']', which states: "An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Violations of the rule normally attract blocks of at least 24 hours". In your case, you should pay special attention to the caveat in the rule: "'''Fourth reverts just outside the 24-hour period may also be taken as evidence of edit-warring, especially if repeated or combined with other edit-warring behavior'''".

In other words, it will not matter if you only edit once a day. A persistent pattern of edit warring, or any other type of ], may get you blocked. And like you, I only usually edit only a couple of hours a day on weekdays (apparently during hours when you don't), so I will not be able to help you if you do get into trouble with another admin. Thanks for your time. ] (]) 06:29, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

:By the way, if you have a chance, check out ] about what happened to me and a couple of other admins back in August 2013. I want to make sure you don't have the false impression that every admin thinks alike, or every admin feels that everything has to be "be the book", or that any admin is immune to another admin's block. ] (]) 06:58, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
::{{ping|Wowee Zowee public}} The title for NBC News flagship daily evening television news program is titled ''NBC Nightly News'', which has been the title since 1970. The only they do is add the anchor's name to the newscast title. ABC News and CBS News do the same thing. Please <u>'''STOP'''</u> adding info about how they've changed their name. ''']''' | ''']''' 15:13, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
:::::::::This is why Misplaced Pages is so good. You think the title of the show is such but it is not. There have even been articles mentioning the change. See, you can learn things in Misplaced Pages when I edit. ] (]) 15:16, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
:::Yes, but just like ''World News Tonight'', it is just simply ''NBC Nightly News''.... with the exception of the anchor's name. Before adding it to the article again, finish talking about it on the talk page until you guys can come up with a consensus. ''']''' | ''']''' 15:23, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

==Your recent edits==
] Hello and ]. When you add content to ] and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to ]. There are two ways to do this. Either:
# Add four ]s ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment; or
# With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (] or ]) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-tilde --> --] (]) 15:20, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Delta Airlines Flight 1086

The better the shape the article is in, the easier it is to show that WP:GNG is met. Have a look at the Villa Castelli helicopter crash article and you will see that there is an infobox and the article has a defined structure. Bare urls are not good either. {{infobox aircraft occurrence}} is the infobox template. {{cite web}} is the template to cite websites. Use <ref name=xxxx>{{cite web |url= |title= |publisher= |accessdate=}}</ref> at minimum (you can copy and paste this). Other parameters may be added as required.
