Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Van Tuong Nguyen, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. 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. Changing it to your version would make it an instant violation of WP:SYNTHESIS. Dave ^{♠♣♥♦™№1185©♪♫®} 06:08, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider 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.

Warning

Regardless of whether "explained" or "said" is better in this case (personally I think "said" is more appropriate), do not call other editors "stupid prick"s or otherwise hurl abuse at them. Any more of that and you'll be blocked from editing. Discuss your editing disagreements civilly or find something else to do. 28bytes (talk) 09:07, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

When I'm "welcomed" here with an accusation first of vandalism, then of original research, I'm not inclined to be nice. If the third message I get is a threat of a block, well, frankly, you can all fuck off. Block away, motherfucker. And then think about what kind of place this is, where someone can change a word for a better word, and get all this shit in return. What a poisonous bunch of cunts.
