 * Please see WP:V, which is a core policy of Wikipedia and states: "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth; that is, whether readers can check that material in Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether editors think it is true."
 * Wikipedia is not the place to soapbox, speculation, nor for original research - reliable sources are needed. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 06:24, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I will be reporting your behavior; thanks. --174.253.155.111 (talk) 06:27, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
