Welcome!

Hello, Robert32439, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, your edit to Brad Birkenfeld does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Specifically, please do stay focused at the topic of an article and do not add information that puts an undue weight on non-related aspects.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{Help me}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!  Nageh (talk) 18:14, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

I mean it

I mean it what I said above. The Brad Birkenfeld article is in a horribly one-sided state, and I ask you to not add further to this inbalance but provide a fair presentation of all the issues. He is not the glorious figure that some people would like to represent him as. Neither should positive commentary by notable organizations or other reliable sources be suppressed. Help making the article present a fair picture to the reader instead of pushing your own personal point of view on the subject. Thank you! Nageh (talk) 18:52, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hello. 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. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 00:24, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

May 2012

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Brad Birkenfeld. More importantly, do not combine material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources, as explained in the synthesis section of our editing policy. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Nageh (talk) 08:24, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at Brad Birkenfeld shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Nageh (talk) 12:58, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
