[edit] Welcome
Welcome!
Hello Johny, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, some of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy, and have been reverted. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.
There's a great page about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Karmafist 14:01, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Clearification
Hello Karmafist, Can you please help me understand how can I fix this mistake. Its my first article here, I'll appreciate a quote with sample of the NPOV.
Thanks Karmafist
Johny
- Your article USACasino.com contains quite a bit of the POV that Karmafist is talking about. The Point of View makes it sound like you are promoting the site rather than describing it. For example, the sentence "...provides a safe and secure online gaming environment for those who wish to gamble money online" is not a neutral statement. It is not a fact that the site is safe or secure, it is an opinion. Please keep neutrality in mind for your further edits. --Several Times 14:48, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Playtech on WP:VFD
Johny: the accusation against the Playtech article is not that it contains certain bits of trivial information, but that it is in itself trivial (non-notable, or "nn"). The assertion by the nominator is that there is no notable information in the article. (Please note: I did not vote in that nomination; I just wanted to bring this to your attention.) - Che Nuevara, the Democratic Revolutionary 21:52, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Example of NPOV
That article above will give you more than enough to explain Wikipedia's views on NPOV. Also, to contact me, please click on that blue signature thing on the side. I saw your comment by accident really. Please let me know if I can help in the future. Karmafist 03:22, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
