Point of view/conflict of interest

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Oromo Liberation Front appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe this important core policy. Even if the article may tilt currently to the other side of the situation, it is inappropriate to add personal opinion or comments about the article to the article itself. It may be appropriate, however, to raise your concerns on the talk page for the article. —C.Fred (talk) 16:10, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

Well, thanks!

Any way, it is good that you see the article needs major edition and may be re-writing.I believe there are a lot of Oromo and non Oromo Scholars who can neutrally analysis OLF and improve the article for future documentation. In addition quite many times, journalists and bloggers duplicate what they hear or read from medias concerned on the issue with no regard to whether the media is neutral or not.Such media foreign journalists and bloggers fish on about OLF is EPDRF's mass media that frequently broadcasts fabricated accusations and well planned propaganda dramas on OLF.

And for millions of Oromo like me reading the same crap on famous website like Wikipedia irritates me much, because I know tens of thousands of innocent civilian Oromos are languishing in Ethiopian prisons, and thousands of civilians and students were killed at gun point accused of being or sympathizing with OLF .And I know OLF stands for the freedom of these victims.Wikipedia should know there are out there who do not want the Oromo citizens having their own human rights,freedom that all human beings are entitled to,their own country and bringing transformation to the lives of millions who are systematically impoverished by successive Abyssinian rulers,by tarnishing the images of OLF-the vanguard of Oromia. 

If you allow, we can improve the article by creating neutral contributers from around the world.

Thank you very much for understanding my emotion on the article.

Sincerely, Oromian Links on EPRDF's atrocities on Oromos accused of being OLF or OLF supporters: Genocide against the Oromo by TPLF/EPDRF Amnesty's report on Torture on Oromos by TPLF [1] State Terrorism against Oromo citizens.
