Welcome!

Hello, Botman34, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Below are a few other good links for newcomers:

Why delete instead of fix?

Regarding this edit: why did you delete the whole paragraph instead of fixing the quotation by adding the missing word? It's an action that calls into question whether you're really here to improve the encyclopedia. —C.Fred (talk) 02:52, 17 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also, you are at the three revert limit

Your recent editing history at Al Giordano shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. —C.Fred (talk) 02:53, 17 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Improvements to article about Al Giordano

Thanks for making some improvements to this article, and in a larger sense to Wikipedia. The biography of Al Giordano, a cranky old guy who is dying of cancer, seems like a small field for you and your talents. HouseOfChange (talk) 02:05, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
