Hello, you removed my edits which had removed a large amount of extraneous information from the article. As it is written the article includes numerous inaccurate and misleading pieces of information that are often not sourced or are leading to irrelevant sources. I'm editing this as a Hispano New Mexican, an individual of the culture that this article is supposed to represent. How is that not constructive? I would like to edit this article so that it portrays accurate information. The disclaimer shown at the top of the page is asking for this to be done and was added originally in November 2019.

Please use inline reliable sources. Our alleged background and skills do not give us any additional "rights" when editing Wikipedia pages. Materialscientist (talk) 22:31, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

I do not believe that I have any "right" to edit Wikipedia pages, I am removing extraneous information that's misleading and factually incorrect. These original misleading edits don't utilize reliable sources to begin with, and despite neither of our backgrounds or skills giving us "rights" to edit, you're still reinstating those edits. How are unreliable sources and false information supposed to be properly removed, if by nature of removing them, it's removing a source or removing information that already isn't sourced?
