[edit] The Root of All Evil?
Regarding your recent edit that I reverted, the rationale was based on WP:Verifiability, which states:
- "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth. "Verifiable" in this context means that any reader must be able to check that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, because Wikipedia does not publish original thought or original research."
Your edit was probably correct, however, in my understanding, had not already been published by a reliable source. Addhoc 17:12, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
