Hello, I'm Bonadea. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Grantsmanship, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, please reply here or, preferrably, start a discussion on the article's talk page, where other editors may weigh in. Thank you.

Please do not change sourced content even if you personally believe that it is wrong - and especially not when you have no sources for the new content. bonadea contributions talk 08:41, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

As for your edit to Grant writing, the issue here is primarily terminological. Your preferred terminology can certainly be included in the article with proper sources for verification, but changing the existing text in the manner that was done, essentially adding negations and making unsourced claims about incorrect usage, is not in line with Wikipedia policy. Your point about the thought and other preliminary work that goes into applying for grants or other forms of funding is certainly valid, but again there has to be a source for it. Please have a look at Wikipedia's policies on sourcing and on original research - the latter referring to facts and ideas where there are no published sources. Thank you! --bonadea contributions talk 08:49, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
