Howdy and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed your edits to the Dino Rossi article. Please be aware that Wikipedia strives to conform to a neutral point of view. Since the edits you are making are controversial, the best course of action is to (i) not make them just yet and (ii) bring the topic up on the article talk page, Talk:Dino Rossi. Try to achive consensus on what to include before making further controversial edits. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a note on the bottom of my talk page, User_talk:TeaDrinker. Thanks, --TeaDrinker (talk) 18:40, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by inserting commentary or your personal analysis into an article, as you did to Dino Rossi, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. TeaDrinker (talk) 22:01, 20 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dino Rossi and talk pages and the welcome template.[edit]

I noticed your comment on TeaDrinker's talkpage regarding your Dino Rossi edits.[1] Every article comes with a "Discussion" page, Dino Rossi's article's is located at Talk:Dino Rossi and you can make your comments there. As far as who is making the "criticism", the source provided is David Postman, who is the Seattle Times's politics correspondent. I don't know his political affiliation, but he is somewhat of an expert on Washington politics. Also, when you add a comment onto a talk page, make sure that you end your message with four tildas (~~~~). By adding four tildas to the end of your comment Wikipedia will automatically sign and date your comment and make it easier for people to know who made the comment and what time they made it. --Bobblehead (rants) 00:32, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Dino Rossi article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here. You can also leave a message on my talk page. --TeaDrinker (talk) 01:40, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

References and NPOV[edit]

Please review Wikipedia:Footnotes and Help:Footnotes for instructions on how to correctly cite references on Wikipedia. You could also do with a review of WP:NPOV. I've had to completely rewrite every addition you've made today to Christine Gregoire and Dino Rossi. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks! --Bobblehead (rants) 22:26, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
