Welcome!

Hello, I am known Gears of War, I am a part of Wikipedia and I would like to welcome you to Wikipedia, here is some stuff you should know and some links to follow.

Wikipedia's official policies and guidelines can be summarized as five pillars that define the character of the project:

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia incorporating elements of general encyclopedias, specialized encyclopedias, and almanacs. All articles must follow our no original research policy, and strive for verifiable accuracy: unreferenced material may be removed, so please provide references. Wikipedia is not the place to insert personal opinions, experiences, or arguments. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Wikipedia is not a soapbox, an advertising platform, a vanity press, an experiment in anarchy or democracy, or a web directory. It is not a newspaper or a collection of source documents; these kinds of content should be contributed to the Wikimedia sister projects.
 
Wikipedia has a neutral point of view, which means we strive for articles that advocate no single point of view. Sometimes this requires representing multiple points of view, presenting each point of view accurately, providing context for any given point of view, and presenting no one point of view as "the truth" or "the best view". It means citing verifiable, authoritative sources whenever possible, especially on controversial topics. When a conflict arises regarding neutrality, declare a cool-down period and tag the article as disputed, hammer out details on the talk page, and follow dispute resolution.
 
Wikipedia is free content that anyone may edit. All text is available under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL) and may be distributed or linked accordingly. Recognize that articles can be changed by anyone and no individual controls any specific article; therefore, any writing you contribute can be mercilessly edited and redistributed at will by the community. Do not infringe on copyright or submit work licensed in a way incompatible with the GFDL.
 
Wikipedia has a code of conduct: Respect your fellow Wikipedians even when you may not agree with them. Be civil. Avoid conflicts of interest, personal attacks or sweeping generalizations. Find consensus, avoid edit wars, follow the three-revert rule, and remember that there are 6,932,429 articles on the English Wikipedia to work on and discuss. Act in good faith, never disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point, and assume good faith on the part of others. Be open and welcoming.
 
Wikipedia does not have firm rules besides the five general principles presented here. Be bold in editing, moving, and modifying articles. Although it should be aimed for, perfection is not required. Do not worry about making mistakes. All prior versions of articles are kept, so there is no way that you can accidentally damage Wikipedia or irretrievably destroy content. Remember, whatever you write here will be preserved for posterity.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! Gears Of War

June 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Sukyo Mahikari appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you. Doug Weller (talk) 19:02, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your message on my talk page. Doug Weller and I are among the editors who do want to the Sukyo Mahikari page to be balanced. In the past I have removed a great deal of content that overpraised Sukyo Mahikari. All relevant points of view can appear in the article, but they need to be referred to reliable sources. Both of us know policy very well and will be pleased to help you. Itsmejudith (talk) 19:34, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

With all due respect, I have great suspicions regarding DougWeller's and Itsmejudith's neutrality on this topic. One of the aspects of Wikipedia is to allow links to other sources of information. The link that I posted has plenty of well researched and SOURCED information. What you are trying to do is censor this page on Sukyo Mahikari and make it seem more unassuming than it is. In the past you have deleted all the anti-Semetic references within Sukyo Mahikari, so I should not be suprised if you delete my posts exposing their other controversial and bigoted beliefs.

I see no respect, just attacks on editors. Comments like "When did "god" start charging a fee to become one of His Children?" are personal observations and have no place in Wikipedia articles. As for links, I see that http://www.letusreason.org seems to appear in a number of articles -- I can't think that it is a reliable source for all of them. Or for this. Wikipedia isn't a platform for preaching. Doug Weller (talk) 21:01, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Regretfully, I have reverted your edits again. You will find that experienced Wikipedia editors like Doug and myself go out of our way to help newcomers, even when we are attacked. If you want to improve this article, then we are pleased. There is much to be done and it is not acceptable for the article to promote the views of Sukyo Mahikari. Neither Doug nor myself have any interest in that organisation. We just understand and wish to adhere to the rules about WP:NPOV in the encyclopedia. Your best way forward is to propose suggested improvements on the talk page. Alternatively you could join the Intensive Care Unit, where you will find helpful advice about improving this and other articles. Itsmejudith (talk) 09:33, 18 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
