Hi there. I'm going to take some time to write an explanation, rather than just add some meaningless template on your talk page. I'm really, really sorry but I undid your edit to the above article. DES was really horrible, and it hurt people near and dear to me too, and we're still paying that price. I'm sorry for what happened to you, too - it should never have, and you have every right to shout that out and to be heard. Unfortunately, we have rules on wikipedia where everything must be neutrally delivered, sourced reliably to various publications, etc, etc. We're not allowed write our own experiences and opinions into articles - all we're supposed to do is document. And y'know - I agree with almost everything you wrote, too :( Please don't let this put you off editing if that's what you want to do. Focus on the article and produce references and quotes for all the harm it did. I've done bits here and there, too. Payback, of sorts. These things really need to be heard

If you've any questions at all or need any help editing here, just drop me a line and I'll be glad to help - A l is o n  ❤ 21:41, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
