Important notes about editing Wikipedia
Based upon your user name, I would like to point out some important points about editing Wikipedia.


 * Conflict of interest - you should not edit articles in which you have a conflict of interest, such as editing the articles about any candidate for which you are involved in their campaign, (nor should you be editing article content about their opponents).
 * Not a webhost - Wikipedia is not a webhost for promotional materials about events, candidates, or products
 * Content must be presented from a neutral point of view - editing content to be "pro-" or "anti-" any candidate or view is not allowed
 * Wikipedia is an encyclopedia - it is not a place to carry on a political campaign of any sort.
