Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions.

Currently, you are editing without a username. You can continue to do so as you are not required to log in to Wikipedia to read and write articles, however, logging in will result in a username being shown instead of your IP address (yours is 24.19.3.231). Logging in does not require any personal details. There are many other benefits for logging in to Wikipedia. For now, if you are stuck, you can type {{helpme}} on this page and an experienced Wikipedian will be around to answer any questions you may have.

Please note these points:

  • Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
  • Please use a neutral point of view to edit the article; this is possibly the most important Wikipedia policy.
  • If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do that.
  • Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted texts, advertisement messages, and texts that are not related to that article. Both adding such unreasonable information and editing articles maliciously are considered vandalism. A user who repeatedly vandalises articles will be blocked from editing.

The Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, ask me on my Talk page – I will answer your questions as far as I can! Thank you again for contributing to Wikipedia.

[edit] jay brannan

why did you revert my edits?--24.19.3.231 04:24, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

It was unfounded, there was no referencing and it was potentially defamatory L.J.Skinnerwot|I did 01:04, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
well then tell me what to do, instead of deleting it. what references can i use - youtube.com? and how was it defamatory?--24.19.3.231 05:45, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
I have to delete potentially liabilous content. It was defamatory because there was no evidence of his sexuality. The way it was written appeared to be vandalism:-
I suggest that "Jay Brannan is an American singer/songwriter and actor. He is gay." would be better written
"Jay Brannan is a homosexual<refname=gay>insert proof of sexuality here</ref> American singer/songwriter and actor."
You should know what you can and cannot write from wiki's user help pages. I'd like to suggest you familiarise yourself with WP:REF and WP:BLP. L.J.Skinnerwot|I did 11:10, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
