Tenet Healthcare edit

Please discuss your edits on the talk page. You don't have to remove the entire 'controversy' section in order to 'neutralize' the subject. The content is well referenced.-Regancy42 (talk) 12:20, 31 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I don't think you understand that Wikipedia has to have a neutral point of view and cannot praise, or criticise, anything on its own. It can only report such things if made by other, third party sources that are reliable. I suggest you read WP:INTRODUCTION and it will shed some light on this. If you don;t abide by these polices your edits will get reverted. I have locked the above article for three days to give you time to peruse this policies.

I understand the neutrality and reference guidelines. My version includes lots of external sources and more importantly is much more updated, i.e. includes events that happened after 2007 and a full list of hospitals. I don't find my version to be unneutral at all -- it's just more updated. Delilah0719 (talk) 14:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I appreciate that, but things like "Through the values of integrity, service, innovation and transparency, Tenet is uniquely positioned for growth," that's rather opinionated and almost reads like an advert. If you introduced only the changes you discussed above, without the other changes such as those I just quoted, there wouldn't be much of an issue. Though, if someone does revert you, repeatedly going back to it is called edit warring and can cause problems - it's best to discuss after someone reverts you.

You have been reported for edit warring edit

See the discussion at Wikipedia:ANI#POV pushing on Tenet Healthcare. You may respond there if you wish. It is fair to let you know that blocking your account has been discussed, since you don't seem to be following our recommended practices for article disputes.
