Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for working to improve the site with your edit to Scott Peterson, as we really appreciate your participation. However, the edit had to be reverted, mainly for the following two reasons:

First, you removed content the article, but without providing a rationale for this in an edit summary. Specifically you removed the passage stating that Peterson's conviction was upheld in 2004, and the moved citation of the source that supported it down further in the article. There is no reason to omit this fact from the Lead section. When removing material, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page.

Second you added uncited material to the article. Wikipedia requires that the material in its articles be accompanied by reliable, verifiable (usually secondary) sources explicitly cited in the article text in the form of an inline citation, which you can learn to make here.

You also made some other more minor edits that were also not constructive. Specifically:
 * You capitalized the pronoun "he" in the sentence in the Lead section that begins "In 2005, he was sentenced..."
 * You changed the wikilink Prunedale, California to Prunedale,California . . Putting aside the fact that it is redundant to mention the U.S. state when the article has already established at this point that the events being described are taking place in California, you placed the name "California" right after the comma without a space between them, yet placed a space between the end of the closing wikilink brackets and the period at the end of the sentence.

Please remember that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and that some care should be taken with respect to composing your additions. If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks.
