Meles Zenawi
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Meles Zenawi, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 18:11, 20 August 2008 (UTC)


 * You also recently added commentary to an article, Meles Zenawi . While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. There have long been issues with the PoV of this article, and it has already been flagged as such. Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 18:11, 20 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Finally, you've been adding your signature to some of your article contributions . This is a simple mistake to make and is easy to correct. For future reference, the need to associate edits with users is taken care of by an article's edit history. Therefore, you should use your signature only when contributing to talk pages, the Village Pump, or other such discussion pages. For a better understanding of what distinguishes articles from these type of pages, please see What is an article?. Thank you. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 18:11, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
