Welcome
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
 * Welcome!
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Editing tutorial
 * Picture tutorial
 * How to write a great article
 * Naming conventions
 * Manual of Style


 * Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
 * Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
 * Maintain a neutral point of view – this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
 * Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page to follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons' policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
 * No edit warring and sock puppetry.
 * If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to [ do so].
 * Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, doing so will result your account or IP being blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! Dougweller (talk) 05:53, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Your edits
You clearly are not a new editor, so you should know to use edit summaries. The Boas article already had an unreferenced tag on it, there was no reason to add more. And you may already know that the consensus is that the Boas article does not mention his ethnicity and the reasons for that, if not, read the talk page before changing that again. I don't know why you changed Nazi into a redirect a lot of readers won't recognise, but that wasn't a good idea either. Your edits on the Pinker article had the same problems.

Same comments on your changes to Fascism which looked like vandalism, and on Nazi Germany where you were inserting a lot of POV material and opinion. -- Snowded TALK  10:27, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Actually, I'm such a new editor I'm not sure how to appropriately reply, so I'm just going to write here.


 * Well despite your name Wikipedia works from sources. I've had to revert another two edits on different articles.  One used a source known to be controversial on matters of race, the other made a link between theories without a source to back it up.  Given that and the number of warnings you have below, if (and I say if) you are new editor its time to stop and learn how things work around here.  -- Snowded  TALK  11:10, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

BTW which was the source that was controversial? One was a 'National Socialist' union site but the matter wasn't race but the listing of party names, which is non-controversial. That is just the logical place to get a listing.
 * Check the edit summaries on the two reverts I reference above. -- Snowded TALK  11:33, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of previously published material to our articles as you apparently did to Antisemitism. Please cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. Ben Ben (talk) 11:25, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Please do not add unsourced content, as you did to Antisemitism. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Ben Ben (talk) 11:28, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Antisemitism, you may be blocked from editing. Jayjg (talk) 06:18, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
