Assume Good Faith
I'm a bit troubled by the edit summary you wrote when blanking your talk page; you wrote: "(Removed pseudowelcome)". I posted that before I commented to you on the article talk page (and explained why your suggested revision wasn't in line with our neutrality policy). As I said previously, I did that solely as a professional courtesy to a new user.

What I posted here was a genuine welcome, in my role as a member of the Welcoming Committee. Please, remember to assume good faith. I can't emphasise this enough. It's the proverbial lubricant (so to speak) that makes this project possible. Contrary to my effort to dissuade you from such a course of action, you've already made changes without consensus, and have started edit warring, in addition to implying an alleged bias on Wikipedia against an ethno-religious group. I'm honestly going a bit out of my way to be nice; there's no malice here. But... Consider this a friendly (and I hope, non-bitey) reminder to assume good faith, achieve consensus on talk pages before major revisions to articles, and avoid contention whenever possible. We all come from different backgrounds, and have different worldviews, but amazingly, we make it work. The environment here, for better or worse, is completely what we make it.

Editing can be a thoroughly enjoyable endeavour, if you assume good faith, and show courtesy to your fellow editors. It's up to you, but you might want to consider adoption. I've been told by many people who have been adoptees that it can be extremely helpful, and I know that several of the adopters are extremely well versed and more than patient in guiding others. And if you have any concerns or questions, you can always go to the Teahouse. Or for immediate assistance, the Wikipedia IRC Help Channel, located here:.
