Hello, I'm DMacks. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Birth-dates are surprisingly controversial and subject to concerns about rumor and other "non-encyclopediac" commentary. DMacks (talk) 16:32, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Sharyl Attkisson shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. 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.

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.

I cannot make the edit, either, but the request has already been made on the article's talk page. You can second the request if you would like. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 13:05, 4 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
