Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to ETA, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.    SIS  22:47, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do not understand your problem with references. I am new to this so I am not sure this is the place to reply. I have added more references and removed the word terrorist. ETA acknowledge to continue the violence and all their kidnappings, bombs and killings in their zutabes. Why is it a problem to estate what they say?:that they advocate vilence, terror and any means to promote an independent estate? Lolailando (talk) 00:34, 24 November 2008 (UTC)lolailando

Hi, please stop deleting the ETA logo. It is not necessary to have a reference for a picture: it just has to be either public domain or released under a GDFL license. Thanks. Copana2002 (talk) 00:44, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If you have a problem with the ETA page please discuss this on the article's talk page rather than constantly reverting other editors. The lead of the article is the result of many years' discussion and consensus. I appreciate your desire to improve the article, but please respect Wikipedia guidelines. Also, be careful you don't violate the 3RR rule. Copana2002 (talk) 00:59, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Since you say you are new to Wikipedia, I recommend that you take a little time to become familiar with how the community works, especially WP:PILLARS and WP:NPOV. I'm reverting your recent changes to ETA for the same reasons the other 2 editors stated above. I recommend that you discuss these issues on the talk page of the article. The custom is to make a new entry at the bottom of the talk page, watch for other comments, and repeat the process until a consensus emerges. Thanks, and again, welcome.

You are all very welcome to respond trough the public page with "precise" arguments rather than general statements that do not refer to what I wrote in my edits. I do not see any consensus there but rather a lot of disagreement for the same reason, you and others with your point of view believe in hiding what even ETA acknowledge publicly in writing; that they advocate and use violence, kidnapping an murder to push their separatist agenda.

Those "general statements" are WP guidelines. I can only suggest you read them since they apply to every article on the site. Nobody is "hiding" anything here. Just remember that your edits have to be a) properly referenced by reliable third-party sources, and b) since this is a very sensitive subject, discussed on the article's talk page as well. Preferably before editing. You failed to do both and since your additions carried a clear POV as well, I reverted your edits. Like many other editors after me did too, I noticed.    SIS  21:53, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

[edit]

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 02:56, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
