Thank you for your contribution. Unfortunately I had to revert it. Please take some time to review the above, particularly WP:V and its handmaiden WP:CITE. A high quality article will cite sources for every assertion that is at all contested. Unreferenced assertions or those without reliable sources are normally challenged or in some cases summarily removed.

For articles of long standing, extra care is expected when editing the Lead section. For any but the most trivial changes, it is normal to discuss them on the articles associated Talk page. By all means be bold, but don't be offended when bold edits are reverted. Again, welcome.LeadSongDog (talk) 18:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

F5487jin4 (talk) 20:35, 20 March 2008 (UTC) Thanks for the welcome LeadSongDog. Unfortunately I don't see that you have applied the rigorous standards (that you applied to me) to the rest of the article. Another writer had made significant changes in contested areas with no citations. By accepting his, and rejecting mine, you have made a significant change and come down on a position that is not value-neutral and not supported with citations.

To be clear, I have contributed to Wikipedia several times, and don't mind being edited - even significantly - when there is a valid reason (in this case, it wasn't mere editing and there wasn't a reason).

Can you please reply?

Thanks! Dave
