Points of View edit
Hi Senantiasa. Thanks for your response on the Talk:Western New Guinea page. I don't disagree at all about your main argument. Of course both sides need to be heard, senantiasa, whether we agree with them or not. The point is that the user in question was pushing his own opinion, which is not what Wikipedia is about. Three of the cornerstones of Wikipedia are Neutral point of view, Verifiability and No original research, which mean that any writing about opinions in articles must be based on what other people have said in reliable sources. If you look at articles such as White supremacy, you will see that the arguments for the "superiority" of the white "race" (which I am sure we both think are ridiculous) are included and referenced as having been made by somebody. Like everybody else, I have certain opinions about issues, but I am as sure as I can be that they do not color my edits or controversial topics such as 30 September Movement. Happy editing.
