Wallens Ridge State Prison]
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thanks for your edits to Wallens Ridge State Prison. Everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia articles, but I have removed your additions and I would like to explain why I did so.

Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia. That means we must remain neutral when writing about any subject, although sometimes it may be difficult to do so. The information you added was about your experiences with a specific person who is a prisoner in that facility, rather than about the prison itself which is the subject of the article. The bit you mentioned about the water shortage sounds interesting (and would be good to include in the article) - do you know of any reliable sources, such as newspapers where this information was reported? It would be great if you could add them! The letters page of your newspaper might be a good place to express your opinion of the prison, too.

Below are some links you might find useful at Wikipedia. If there's anything I can help you with, you can leave a message on my user page. -- Kateshort forbob  10:41, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
