Hello, and '''''[[Wikipedia:Welcome, newcomers|welcome]] to Wikipedia!'''''

Someone using this [[IP address]], {{BASEPAGENAME}}, has made unhelpful edits&nbsp;to the page [[:Van Tuong Nguyen]], which have been [[Help:Reverting|reverted]]. If you did this, in the future please try to contribute in a more constructive manner. If you did not do this, you may wish to consider <span class="plainlinks">[{{fullurl:Special:Userlogin|type=signup&returnto=Main_Page}} getting a username]</span> to avoid confusion with other editors.

You don't have to [[Special:Userlogin|log in]] to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free, requires no personal information, and has many [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|benefits]]. Without a username, your [[IP address]] is used to identify you.

Some good links for newcomers are:
*[[Help:Contents|Help contents]] – the main help page.
*[[Wikipedia:Quick guide|Quick guide]] – a "cheatsheet" listing the main editing commands.
*[[Wikipedia:Five pillars|The five pillars of Wikipedia]]
*[[Wikipedia:Tutorial|Tutorial]]

Please [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages|sign your name]] on talk pages using four (~&#126;~~); this will automatically produce your name and timestamp. If you need help, check out [[Wikipedia:Questions]], ask me on [[User talk:Dave1185{{!}}my talk page]], or place <code>{&#123;helpme}}</code> on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Again, welcome! <!-- Template:Welcome-anon-vandal --> <small>[[User:Dave1185|<font face="Rage Italic" size="4" style="color:#000000;color:green"><i>Dave</i></font>]] <sup><span style="font-family:Italic;color:black">[[user_talk:Dave1185|♠♣♥♦™№1185©♪♫®]]</span></sup></small> 05:49, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

:Changing "explained" to "said" is not an "unhelpful edit". If you think it is, you've got no clue about how to write good English. Take your tiresome templates elsewhere.

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=|link=]] Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate [[Special:Contributions/2.220.204.70|your contributions]],&nbsp;including your edits to [[:Van Tuong Nguyen]],&nbsp;but we cannot accept [[Wikipedia:No original research|original research]]. Original research also encompasses [[WP:SYN|combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say]]. Please be prepared to cite a [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable source]] for all of your contributions. Thank you.<!-- Template:Uw-nor1 --> ''Note that this has nothing to do with [[WP:NPOV]], as the original text quoted in the source was "explained", not "said" as you've explained.

:''If this is a shared [[IP address]], and you didn't make the edit, consider [[Wikipedia:Why create an account?|creating an account]] for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.''

Fuck off, you stupid prick. I changed the word "explained" to "said". This is not vandalism (your first template) or original research (your second template). You need to learn some basic writing skills, in particular about how to report other people's views neutrally. This does not involve regurgitating sources word for word. Try thinking a little bit. Consider this example:

:The creationist _____ that bananas were clear evidence for the existence of an intelligent creator

Which one of these is the most neutral choice for blank?

#explained
#claimed
#said

And how much does it matter what word is used in any source you might happen to have found in which this statement appears?

#fuck all

Now, think about that, learn a bit about writing, and about humility, and don't dare to leave any insulting and dishonest templates on this or any other talk page.

==Your recent edits==
[[Image:Information.svg|25px|link=]] Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to [[Wikipedia:Talk page|talk pages]] and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should [[Wikipedia:Signatures|sign your posts]] by typing four [[tilde]]s ( &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126; ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button [[File:Insert-signature.png|link=Wikipedia:How to sign your posts]] located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when.

== Next steps ==

I've discussed this situation with the blocking admin. I think we are close to agreement, although I'll only speak for myself here. The uncivil language used by you will not be tolerated, and is not acceptable, even if provoked. That said, I see plenty of evidence that responses to you have been inappropriate. If you agree to moderate your language, the next step is for the blocking admin and I to figure out which one of us unblocks you.

That doesn't settle the whole incident. I am not happy with some of the language directed at you, and am looking for some apologies. No promises, but I don't want you to think that two sides can say improper things, and only one side is admonished.

On the merit of the edit, I agree that "explained" is wrong. However, before supporting a change to "said" I notice that the source is silent on who made the claim about the letter being late. I read it quickly, perhaps I missed something, but I'd like to discuss with you the proper wording.

I've separately asking the admin providing the protection to more fully explain the action. Should the protection be lifted, you can make the edit, or you might let me do it. Your call.--<font style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:15px;">[[User:Sphilbrick|<span style="background:#002868;color:#fff;padding:0 4px">SPhilbrick</span>]][[User talk:Sphilbrick|<span style="background:#ADD8E6;padding:0 4px;color:#fff;">T</span>]]</font> 20:51, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
