[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Actually, these additions were good faith. I watched the video, which is interesting and pertinent to the topic. The web article is also pertinent, although I'm not sure how reliable the source is. The reason you have been bitten is that we currently have editing restrictions on the LTTE article, and we just decided to clamp down on the flurry of people who edit this article in dubious ways. Your edit was addition of external links in the reference section, without actually being referred to in the text, so it raised suspicion. However, please don't feel discouraged; I invite you to join our discussion at WT:SLR. — Sebastian 20:44, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Bruce Fein. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.

Please do not revert another editor's change after you have been rightly warned. The right way to react is to engage in a discussion. Generally, the best place for this is the article's talk page, but in this concrete case, which is related to the Sri Lanka conflict, you will reach more open ears at WikiProject Sri Lanka Reconciliation, where editors from both sides of the conflict work on a fair coverage of both sides. Defence.lk is not an independent source. If you want to quote such sources, use correct attribution such as "Defence.lk, a website of the SL Ministry of Defense, accused Mr Fein in June 2008 of "..."[http://www.defence.lk/new.asp?fname=20080605_12]". If, instead, you continue to try to force your opinion on Wikipedia, you will be blocked. — Sebastian 02:03, 7 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
