Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses novel, unpublished syntheses of previously published material. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your information. --Dbratland (talk) 16:51, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

Suicide shifter
Hi. I removed your comment that the term "suicide shifter" is erroneous, because this opinion contradicts a large number of reliable sources. And even if it is technically inexact, it is what most people say and therefore it should be explained. I surmise that you and feel strongly about this, but please consider the Wikipedia essay WP:Truth and the policy WP:Verifiability. The policy WP:COMMONNAME is a good read too. I think if you could cite a source which plainly states that "suicide shifter" is an error, it should say so in the article, but not without a source. Please discuss at Talk:Suicide shifter and ask for help if you are unsure about any technical issues or Wikipedia policies. --Dbratland (talk) 21:05, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
