Hello, PDMacGuire, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page American Liberty League have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

American Liberty League
[edit]Thanks for your message. Please read my welcoming note. The standard for including information in a Wikipedia article is Verifiablitiy. If you can identify a fact using a reliable source you may include it in article. With American Liberty League you included information but supplied no references. A google search found no articles about the A.L.L. being re-established. If you are able to find such references you may be able to add them to this article.
- An important point to remember, however, is that this would be a new organization using the same name as an old organization. That new organization would likely need its own page. The reasons are obvious; if I start up an organization called the Sons of Liberty that organization would not be added to the historical Sons of Liberty article. They are not the same organization.
Last point, and its important, please read the Wikipedia: Conflict of Interest policy before editing information on family members. Thanks again for your note. Capitalismojo (talk) 20:12, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
