James Wolpert
Hi, Pickaback and welcome to Wikipedia. I wanted to apologize to you for not directly engaging in discussion with you over my concerns related to your addition to James Wolpert's article. My concern was that the information you added was not cited to a reliable source, although you did add what appeared to be an external link. If that was intended to be the source, please let me know, and I will be happy to review the source's contents, and if deemed that what you added can be appropriately attributed to that source, I will be more than happy to re-add the information and cite the source. Once again, I apologize for my brusque edit summary and lack of engagement with you over my concern; please do not judge the entire site by my miscue ... we have a lot of great editors here as well as mechanisms for new contributors such as yourself to get assistance in their early editing. Please let me know on this page or on my talk page should you have any questions. Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, and happy editing! Sincerest regards,  Go  Phightins  !  03:35, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

I am responding to the message below about attribution for an article edit. The external link was intended as the source. Pickaback
