Mount Roraima
The Wikipedian community welcomes responsible edits, and I hope that your edit to the Mount Roraima article on 24 January 2013 was in good faith, but the change that you made could be considered vandalism. The text that you changed was supported by an authoritative source, an official publication of the British Government, and the attached note even went so far as to quote from the text: Mount Roraima is the point where the boundaries of Venezuela, Brazil and British Guiana actually meet, and a stone stands on its summit, placed there by the International Commission in 1931. I went and checked the source and that is an accurate quotation. I have restored the previous text. Just a word to the wise, before you change text, especially text that is supported by citation, please be sure that you have a reliable source to support the change. If there is a source provided and the Wikipedia text has incorrectly parsed it, or the source is not reliable, it is best to discuss the whys and wherefores on the talk page of the article before making changes, and, where possible, to notify the editor who placed the apparently incorrect text into the article. This can save everyone time, help keep discussions civil and prevent things like edit wars. It can also be a learning experience. Sourcing and citation has become more important to verify content as the Wikipedia has grown. --Bejnar (talk) 05:45, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
