  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Kodiak Bear, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you.

About your changes, I have reverted part of them due to some problems with sources. Please notice that, on the "Size relative to other bear types", the text that you were modifying was not part of that article, but a literal quote from a U.S. Fish and Wildlife service website. If you have a source for the weight of 448 kg, please indicate it when changing the weight, as the current data of 477-534 kg is already sourced to a book and shouldn't be changed without updating the source. --Enric Naval (talk) 03:09, 27 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Grizzly Rage. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. You changed a sourced statement to something other than what the source says. As such, it has been reverted. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 20:44, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

  This is the final warning that you are receiving regarding your disruptive edits. The next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did to Grizzly Bear, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 20:47, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Re: Bears

edit

Your edits were reverted because your changes did not reflect the source cited. Pure and simple. If you make changes, and you know you are correcting an inaccuracy, make sure you also change the cited source. Don't just make the change and expect everyone to know that your new information is the correct information. PhD or no PhD, make sure your edits/changes are adequately cited by a reliable source; otherwise, your edits are considered "original research", which is not permitted in Wikipedia. BC  talk to me 22:34, 17 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
