Your edits on Murder of Stacey Mitchell
Hey, I appreciate your effort to improve our article on the Murder of Stacey Mitchell. I understand that you think you had some great information that should be shared, which is a wonderful instinct.

However, you know how people don't quite trust Wikipedia because anyone can edit it? For that reason, we want the important information in our articles to be verifiable, so that if someone doubts what we say, they can double-check it in a reliable source like a respected newspaper or somesuch. Someone involved giving you the real inside information may seem like a great source, and it would be if you were writing an article in a newspaper, but it's not verifiable to the Wikipedia reader because they cannot just go and ask the same person who told you. As such, I've restored the article to the state it was in before your edits, grounded in those verifiable sources we used.

Almost everyone who starts editing Wikipedia makes some efforts that don't quite fit in with how things are done here, and I hope that you don't let that discourage you from learning more about the Wikipedia way and helping to improve this encyclopedia!
