Hi Muzzboi, thanks for editing the Harvey Milk page. Unfortunately, the edit itself violates one of Wikipedia's policies: Wikipedia:Don't include copies of primary sources. We're not a source for primary information. So, for example, on a page about The DaVinci Code, we wouldn't post the actual complete book's contents on the page. Likewise, we don't post the entire speech that a political figure has given. We discuss it and other information in a bigger context. You may quote parts of his speech or cite them as they are relevant to discussing or describing a point, but that doesn't mean we post the entire speech. Feel free to use the above box and the Manual of Style to answer some questions you might have as you begin editing. You can also feel free to ask me if you have any questions that you can't find answers for. I'll do my best to help you out. Welcome to Wikipedia!Luminum (talk) 22:18, 8 February 2011 (UTC)Reply
