Green Society

The pages you were editing related to a New Zealand political party. I've created a new page for the US group, Green Society (United States). Please add new material there. Also, please avoid copying directly from the website - Wikipedia does not accept copyrighted material. --IdiotSavant (talk) 11:38, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

September 2008

I've removed your most recent additions to the Green Society because they are unrelated to the article's subject. Also, the content is unsourced, reads as promotional, and is linked to an agency that, while worthy, does not appear to have its own article on Wikipedia. Thank you, JNW (talk) 23:21, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As a further hint: if you think the US Green Society is notable enough to deserve its own entry, you should create a seperate one, e.g. Green Society (United States), rather than dumping it into an existing entry. But make sure that it is sourced, neutral, and notable. Please also remember that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a soapbox for self-promotion, and that the content should be encyclopediac and original, not simply copy-pasted from a group's webpage. --IdiotSavant (talk) 23:49, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
