just to be clear i do understand that you said you were removing vandalism and obvious vandalism is excluded from the rr however this was not obvious vandalism i blocked the other party in this edit war for hours however since you were reverting vandalism and tried to communicate with the other editor i will only warn you other admins may disagree and could decide to block you as well as this normally is what happens in edit wars if there are additional problems please post at the appropriate board for other editor's input
