Welcome!

Hello, Concrnd citizen, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.

There's a page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. 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:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Help pages
• Tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Manual of Style

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!  (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 18:54, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did to Nashville Predators, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. If you wish to include information from a reliable source that is not full of opinion, please do so. Until then, it will be removed as contrary to Neutral Point of View (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 18:33, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Nashville Predators and Sommet Center

I would ask that you please familiarize yourself with our policies and guidelines regarding maintaining a neutral point of view and giving topics undue weight. An attempt by an arena operator to change how it generates revenue is hardly an issue that warrants a three paragraph section on the article of a hockey team that plays in the arena, much less placement in the lead. Even in the Sommet Center article, the amount of prose you dedicate to this topic gives it undue weight. Further, your editorializing, using such phrases as P. T. Barnum's famous quote, and commentary like "fortunately, the board sensibly..." is very much a violation of our policy requiring all editors to maintain a netural point of view. The note that Friedman attempted to convert these sections is already stated in the article, as is the fact that the motion failed. I will also note that currently, two editors oppose your edits as they stand, against only yourself supporting them. At this point, I would ask that you please discuss your viewpoint on the talk pages of the articles before reinserting any info such that other editors may weigh in first. Thank you, Resolute 00:34, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
