Hello, Sliceofmiami, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

Discuss your edits

You have been reverted multiple times on United States Air Force KC-135 replacement effort, yet I fail to see where you have attempted to discuss your edits with anyone on the article's talk page. I highly suggest that you do not edit the article again until you have discussed the edits per the WP:BRD policy. Your edit warring is bringing you very close to a block, and your behavior highly suggests that you are a single-purpose account. -MBK₀₀₄ 06:53, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

Mea maxima culpa. I didn't understand the process. It is my first time on Wiki. I added information that I believed was relevant, the first time without references, and the second time with someone that didn't like what I wrote. I am now using the discussion page. You jump to conclusions too fast. Sliceofmiami (talk) 17:58, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi there, interesting Latin phrase. I hadn't heard that one before. Thanks for discussing your edits; it's greatly appreciated and saves many people from frustration. Regards, —Ed (talk • majestic titan) 21:33, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, you may not know that Wikipedia has a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Using different styles throughout the encyclopedia, as you did in KC-X, makes it harder to read. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. username 1 (talk) 21:52, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

Re: 1984

Those comments refer to 1984 not being an official title for the book, which no one disputes. When I reverted your removal, I also reworded to clarify the lack of official status. I'm not seeing the problem. --Cybercobra (talk) 07:21, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

Restoring

Sorry I took so long to respond to your comment. I've been busy and haven't been on for a while.

That's really unfortunate. You see that all the time on wikipedia. Sometimes I feel like I'm building sandcastles. I put up some truth with a reliable source and some dishonest person comes along and a cover-up is only a click away. But that's the thing about wikipedia. It never forgets. You can always go back and see exactly what was done.

Could you refresh my memory about the article to which you are referring? It seems like it was about a guy from Microsoft calling for internet users to be licensed before being allowed to use the internet. That should be a crime.

This is not official; it's just the way I know how to do it.

1)Click on the history tab. 2)Click the radio button next to the edit that you want to revert. 3)Click the radio button under that one. 4)Click the "compare selected revisions" button. 5)Figure out what is going on. 6)Click "undo" next to the edit you want to undo.

On second thought, I am not the right person to ask about this.

Hope this helps.

Verifiable Sources

Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page Chuck_Smith_(pastor) have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and have been reverted. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. The sources in question had been previously discussed with you as not wikipedia-worthy.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have!

Note that unsourced or poorly sourced information may be removed immediately and that the burden is not on the remover of the information to find better sources. If you are interested in adding new information to an article, directing others to find references for your material is inappropriate.

Thanks for your time and efforts! 66.177.182.13 (talk) 00:35, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

To the user in Jacksonville that only wishes to be identified by an IP address, please read Wikipedia:V before you make your next revert of anyone's pages. In specific,

Editors might object if you remove material without giving them time to provide references. It has always been good practice to make reasonable efforts to find sources oneself that support such material, and cite them. Sliceofmiami (talk) 06:16, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
