I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

[edit] January 2008
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 Articles of Confederation 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. Gwernol 18:34, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did to Freedom of religion. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Gwernol 19:04, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Hi!!
Hi Elizabeth, and welcome to Wikipedia. I just want to remind you that Wikipedia is not a blog site or discussion forum, but an encyclopedia. It is also not Conservapedia in that Wiki does not accept original research, thoughts, or essays. All submissions must be based on material from reliable, published sources, yet not be direct copies of those sources. I want to encourage you to either try to adapt to Wikipedia's style, or to find a better forum for posting your essays.
This has nothing to do with what you are writing, or your views, but rather the fact you are submitting original research. There are many people on Wikipeida who agree with your writings, so it is not what you believe that is the problem here.
If you are interested in editing Wikipedia, that is in improving what is already here through copyediting and so forth, I would be willing to help you in any way. By strating out doing editing, and reading article talk pages, you will quickly learn what is and what is not acceptable for Wikipeida, and in time you will know for yourslef what to add to expand articles. Thanks. - BillCJ (talk) 20:44, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
