History of Australia
Hi Msflet, thank you for your edits to History of Australia (1788–1850). It can be frustrating or confusing for a new editor when their edits are reverted and I wanted to explain why I did so and to invite you to discuss the issue on the articles talk page. The view that Australia was invaded is a valid point of view, but it is not the only one, at least not yet. One of the fundamental principles of Wikipedia is to write in a neutral point of view, that is "in an impartial tone that document and explain major points of view, giving due weight with respect to their prominence". Due weight relies upon reliable sources and I'm sure you will understand that most of those were not written by first nations people - that just means we need to work harder to find reliable sources to make sure the articles have balance. Wikipedia is not always right, nor am I, but one of its best features is the way in which discussion & collaboration generally improves the articles. Let me know if you would like any help in figuring out how to constructively improve wikipedia. --Find bruce (talk) 05:43, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
