Welcome[edit]

Hello, Kartiksubr, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page Kerry Killinger have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and have been reverted. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

There is a page about the verifiability policy that explains the policy in greater detail, and another that offers tips on the proper ways of citing sources. 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, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that while I didn't touch the text, I had to remove the references that you used in your recent work and replace them with "fact" tags. Links like that are sometimes appropriate when personal opinions are being cited, but not when the topic is factual matters. That's becuase these sites can be edited anonymously, or under a screenname (as you did when you uploaded the articles there), without verification or review, and therefore the content isn't considered to come from a reliable source. The policy that I just linked to in blue there is an important one, and is sometimes applied in different ways depending on the exact article, so it can be confusing. If you have any questions feel free to leave a note on my talkpage. Doc Tropics 23:49, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
