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 Halo 3 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. — TKD::Talk 03:22, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

The point is that, since there's no uniform definition of "very positive", how much is "very" is subjective, and a matter that Wikipedia shouldn't go into; let the reviews speak for themselves and let the reader decide. That's the essence of neutral point of view.

As another angle to this issue, from a standpoint of effective prose, many writing style guides discourage the use of adverbs like "very", "quite", and so forth because their effect is imprecise and vague. — TKD::Talk 11:55, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
