Your edits to Steam engine
Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thanks for your edits to Steam engine. Please don't be discouraged because they have been reverted. I completely see your point of how transport by steam contributed to the Second industrial revolution, but it read as though it was your own interpretation, or opinion, which isn't allowed: see the explanation on the article's history page for the links to the policy. "Integrate changes", here, is also worth a look. The "Applications" section you used for your amendment was for technical matters; there is a "Advantages" section just below, but this too is for benefits more specific to the topic, rather than general social and economic ones. There is only a short paragraph on "engines" in Second industrial revolution; have you considered whether this needs improvement?

Please don't be deterred by any of this: be bold and stick with it!--Old Moonraker (talk) 12:31, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
