Immigration
Hi, Verdadero. I have noticed your recent edits to immigration to the United States. I appreciate the fact that you are using references for your edits and are providing a lot of good information. However, some of the edits are concerning. First, I want to refer you to Wikipedia's guideline on reliable sources. Sources like this one, for example, likely do not qualify as reliable under the guideline. Additionally, in your most recent edit (as of this writing), you wrote in part, "The groups that resettle refugees and are referred to in the media as “charities” or “non-profits” or “humanitarian organizations” are actually federal contractors and get the vast majority of their funds from the U.S. taxpayer. . . ." To make such a blanket assertion regarding organizations that resettle refugees is, quite frankly, false. The sentence precludes the existence of any charity organizations that aid refugees, when several of these agencies exist. This, again, comes back to the source for the sentence being unreliable. The edits, to some degree, are citing opinion pieces as if they were fact pieces and thus the article no longer complies with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy. Additionally, the edits all appear to be written from a certain perspective to the exclusion of others, causing the article to be out of line with the undue weight policy.

That said, again, I think you have introduced a lot of good material to the article. I don't mean to discourage you from contributing. I have, however, tagged the article with this POV tag. Please keep these concerns in mind when editing the article from now on. Thank you. · jersyko   talk  19:06, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Indonesia
Verdadero, thanks for your contribution. However, your recent edits to Indonesia has been converted because you asserted a story that does not relate to the subject. The source you inserted does not explain about the demographics of Indonesia, the section you edited. I value your contribution, but based on your other contributions, you seems to have a POV agenda. &mdash; Indon ( reply ) &mdash; 15:48, 26 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh the similar edits you inserted into India, Africa and PRC article have been converted also. Please remain neutral. &mdash; Indon ( reply ) &mdash; 15:51, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
