Oh, no problem. I won't revert it again. Not today, anyway! thanks for the advice.

:Dear Neo,
:Because you are a newbie, let me first welcome you to Wikipedia, and award you a service badge, which you may put on your user page.

:::::{{Registered Editor Userbox}}

Next, I will refer you to one of the kazillion things you need to learn to participate fully in Wikipedia. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources] The citation you posted is not recognized as a valid source.
I wish you the best of luck and a word from someone who has been there: Do your homework.
P.S. Also review this page:[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:3RR#The_three-revert_rule] re: The 3 revert rule which incidentally I have not violated as it states: Removal of poorly sourced material may be immediately removed.(exception to 3RR)

== How we do things here ==

Wikipedia is a collaborative project. People of differing views work together to write a [[WP:NPOV|neutral]] encyclopedia. That's not always easy, particularly on controversial subjects, and we have to discuss what to put in the article on the talk page.

The core things to remember if there is disagreement, is to interact civilly (see [[Wikipedia:Civility]]) and to avoid inflamed rhetoric and [[WP:NP|personal attacks]]. Always comment on what should be in the article, don't comment on the views of the other contributors. We have a policy of [[WP:AGF|assuming everyone is working on good faith]].

I hope these remarks help you to understand why this contribution [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ALaura_Schlessinger&action=historysubmit&diff=381325514&oldid=381298776] doesn't really fit in here. I've taken the liberty of removing it, and I'd ask you to have a look at the policies I pointed you to. Wikipedia can be a lot of fun, if you take the effort to understand the ethos.

Happy contributing.--[[User talk:Scott MacDonald|Scott Mac]] 18:29, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi there. Careful on the reverts, the other editor has already hit WP:3RR suggest you not revert again if he does. Anyway he should have gone to Talk per WP:BRD rather than starting an edit war but that does not mean you should get sucked in. Cheers, RomaC TALK 04:56, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, no problem. I won't revert it again. Not today, anyway! thanks for the advice.

Other editors were wrong to remove your comment in it's entirety - so I replaced it. BUT removed the non-constructive comments you made about Doc. I appreciate you may have got mad and made some rash comments but we try to avoid attacking editors or, really, even discussing other editors. If something an editor says concerns you (i.e. it was rude, attacking w/e) then the best approach is either to ask a friendly admin for help or post a thread to the administrators noticeboard. --Errant [tmorton166] (chat!) 19:10, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
