Hi, Roylee. As User:Kosebamse pointed out when you arrived here in December 2004 (I note that you blanked his welcome), many of your edits seem to constitute original research. Additionally, you are often inserting non-mainstream theories into articles, pretending that they are uncontroversial and based on 'modern research' and 'recent studies'. Some of your edits are uncontroversial and do help improve Wikipedia and I want to acknowledge that. However, the many edits that do not comply with such policies and guidelines as No Original Research and Verifiability in fact place a burden on other editors to check your facts.

I want to point you once again at the No original research policy. The new section you recently added to Olmec is a good example of original research. It is obvious that you want to imply something by adding phrases like "How people arrived in the Americas seems to be more complex than previously speculated" and "descendants of the first humans to enter the New World ... have no obvious ties to any Asian groups" under a heading like "Conclusions from modern researchers". The problem is that Wikipedia articles should not imply any such thing. Wikipedia's job is only report facts. What you seem to do is pulling all sorts of recent studies out of context and cleverly combining them to make articles say things that are in effect fringe theories. It's clever, but you should keep it at your own websites or add it to Wikinfo — Wikipedia is simply not the place for it. — mark ✎ 28 June 2005 07:35 (UTC)
