common name

Hello - Barack Obama's mother was most commonly known as Ann Dunham, which is the name we use in his biography and other articles throughout the encyclopedia. Her biography is correctly named Ann Dunham. Stanley Ann Dunham is a redirect pointer to Ann Dunham, in case anyone searches on her full name, and we include her full name in the bolded first line. But she should be identified as Ann in his bio. Please discuss on Talk:Barack Obama if you have some reason for your change, rather than reverting it again. Thank you.

Madelyn and Stanley Dunham

You reverted incorrect language, an obsolete tag, and confusing dates in the infobox. Please use edit summaries for your edits and discuss on talk if you disagree - reinstating errors is not helpful. Thanks. Tvoz/talk 08:30, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

M&S Dunham/edit summaries

Thanks, BB - new edits look good. One more request: could you please use edit summaries so that other editors can easily see what you did and why? It would help! Tvoz/talk 19:13, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Sarah Onyango Obama

Sarah Onyango Obama's role in the presidential campaign does not belong in Madelyn and Stanley Dunham - it is not an article about Barack or about the campaign, it's about the Dunhams. Please stop adding it. And it would be great if you'd respond to the notes left here and in edit summaries on the articles - we try to have a dialog about editing and it's hard when there's no reply. And again, would you please enter something in edit summaries that explain your edits - that would be appreciated. Tvoz/talk 03:55, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Once again - a discussion has started on Talk: Madelyn and Stanley Dunham#Sarah Onyango Obama - it's not a matter of length. Please join the discussion. Thank you. Tvoz/talk 04:40, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Madelyn and Stanley Dunham. 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. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 06:14, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

You're correct that it would be inappropriate for me to block you or use the admin tools in this dispute; however, there's nothing inappropriate in reminding you of the three-revert rule. Any Wikipedian can do that. Please discuss the edit rather than continuing the edit war. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 06:40, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
