Your edits to Take Back The News
Hello, I presume from your username and edits you're Julia Brandt of Take Back The News. I'm just leaving a note to explain why I partially reverted some of your edits - as Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it does not use the first person in its main articles. I've also tried to make the page Take Back The News read a bit more like an encyclopedia rather than simply a mirror of your site. I am also writing to ask you to read the Wikipedia guidelines on writing with a conflict of interest. Briefly put, it is strongly discouraged for you to make significant edits which involve organisations you yourself are too involved in (except for very minor and uncontroversial edits such as removing typos and vandalism). If you have material that can be of used to the article, you can suggest it at the article's talk page. Note that there's no reason you shouldn't improve articles on wider topics such as Rape (so long as your contributions do not consist of plugging your organisation). I hope you understand why Wikipedia's policy on this issue is necessary. (Oh, and keep up the good work in TBtN itself!) --Nema Fakei 12:46, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
