Welcome
Welcome!

Hello, Decipherlouie, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV), and have been reverted. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type   on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Where to ask a question or ask me. Again, welcome!

More welcome
At the risk of utterly overwhelming a new contributor (our most valuable resource), I would also like to point out how the numbered references are created. There is no need manually to renumber (fortunate for the continued readability of heavily-edited articles), simply put the text of your reference inside HTML-style wiki-markup ref-tags, like so:

A nice introduction may be found at Referencing for beginners. Again, this is just a pointer which you may find to be of use. As long as your sources are cited in one way or another, everything else is just window dressing. - Eldereft ~(s)talk~ 07:24, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
