Perhaps you are unaware, but the article is very contentious, and part of the balance that is maintained is the number of references in each section. May I suggest that if you have a reference that you feel is superior to ones already n the article, to discuss it in a new section on talk:Circumcision? Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 19:23, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia, Jesse1066! Thanks for adding a link to the Circumcision page. The link you added looks useful, better than some of the other links in that section. We deleted one of the other links in order to maintain a numerical balance between the numbers of pro- and anti-circumcision links. If you're interested, you can see the discussion at Talk:Circumcision#Promotion links. You can also see the sequence of edits by going to the Circumcision page and clicking "history" at the top. Feel free to put a message on my talk page if you have any questions about how to edit Wikipedia; except that I mostly only edit on weekends these days so you may have to wait for an answer. I hope you will continue to be bold in editing articles. ☺Coppertwig (talk) 21:33, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
