[edit] Mae West

This is an interesting myth. However, you should add a source to your contribution to show that the myth itself is real.

Hi, I'm, too, a longhair. I have heard and read the rumor numerous times. There are a number of websites that refer to this rumor, including sex-kitten.net, maewest.net, and mae-west.com. What can I do at this point? Can these be external links or can I refer to these websites. Or what do you suggest? I know the rumor has existed for decades and I think it is important to share. Thanks.

[edit] Lead Belly

Impressive geneological information about Lead Belly, but I think it falls under WP:NOR because there is not an outside publication cited. I would suggest publishing the information in a journal and then it could be cited from Wikipedia. There is a lot of what you wrote, for instance about people not forgetting their birthdates, which sounds like opinions. Also, by the way, to sign comments you can use the 10th button in the edit menu, the one that looks like a signature.--Larrybob 19:48, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

In addition to teaching psychology, running a counseling center, and singing in a band, I am a professional genealogist. I am in the Los Angeles phone book under Family Quest. I am stating a professional opinion regarding the confusion of birth dates. People actually changed birth years frequently in those days. Regarding Leadbelly, Bessie Smith, and Ma Rainey, the census is the most reliable source, more reliable than biographies that copied each other. I have tried to contribute from my chosen fields and interests, because I believe Wikipedia is a great resource for people and that, as such, should come as close to the truth as possible.

[edit] Robert Byrd

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions, including your edits to Robert Byrd. As a member of the Wikipedia community, please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information of living persons must not be libelous. Any controversial statements about a living person added to an article must include proper sources. Thank you. Seicer (talk) (contribs) 01:18, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] January 2008

Please read up on WP:BLP and WP:V. All new content should be attributed to a reliable source. That way, users reading our encyclopedia can verify all content. This is especially important when it comes to articles about living people. It is never acceptable to add unsourced criticism to articles. Personal opinions or commentary doesn't belong in articles, per WP:OR. I have reverted a few of your recent edits because of this. If you have any questions about wikipedia guidelines, I'd be glad to try and help. Good luck in the future.-Andrew c [talk] 02:20, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Abortion appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you. KillerChihuahua?!? 13:25, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

The use of one physician's opinion or suggestion that a fetus cannot feel is not substantial. Opposing opinions by Thomas Verny and Arthur Janov and others should be allowed, if this physician's opinion is allowed. There is no proof of exactly when a fetus feels pain, but as an ex-Primal Therapist I have witnessed and heard descriptions of fetal pain. There is actual evidence that a fetus feels pain in Janov's books and Leboyer's books. The physician cited has no evidence. I am merely trying to give the article fair balance. Not allowing the opposing view by other physicians would, to me, indicate a non-neutral viewpoint. Please explain why opposing theorists and evidence are disallowed. Or if they are allowed, what must I do to report the evidence.
