Being bold is important on Wikipedia. However, while being bold is important, it is also a trait which should be carefully exercised. For example, if a user is new to Wikipedia, it might be necessary to complete training modules before said user is equipped to make bold edits. Additionally, edits should not be made purely for the sake of boldness. Edits should be carefully thought out and justified. Reasons should be provided for edits, particularly bold ones, and they should be properly cited using reliable sources when necessary. Additionally, the essential tenets of Wikipedia should be respected when editing. Neutral voice should be used at all times and personal opinions or analysis avoided entirely. Additionally, adherence to proper grammar and structure should be closely monitored. Edits should be respectful to other users and not made out of spite. They should add important clarification or new information that improves the article. It may be necessary to rewrite sections in this aim. This is not only were boldness is required, but also careful justification in order to avoid conflict between other editors or authors. Indeed, continuous, defensible change is the foundation of Wikipedia, so a responsibility to be bold is requisite for any user who wishes to cultivate reliable and free information for many years to come.
