The two sources are both peered reviewed. As well, I myself wrote the upper 3 paragraphs, so why disagree with the one criticism? Isn't wikipedia supposed to be scholarly?Polyesterthought (talk) 01:32, 28 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Thilo Sarrazin. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. The article you linked doesn't mention Thilo Sarrazin - sources must discuss the subject of the article. Dougweller (talk) 05:32, 25 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

I can't figure out why you are writing to me as I wasn't one of the editors who reverted you at Plato. However, I did warn you about original reeearch, a warning which you ignored. Any text you add should be based on what reliable sources say about the subject of the article, not your own analysis. See WP:VERIFY and WP:RS as well as WP:NOR.
