| I ran across your edits that were reverted and am making some comments on the talk page. While I can understand your criticisms, in Misplaced Pages we have to use ] and write in a neutral tone. Doing so often can make a better case than sources which are from advocacy groups with a strong negative or positive opinion. We have especially strong rule on biographies and if you look at and don't like some things in some biographies of people you like, believe me it would be ''much worse'' if it was ''not'' for those rules. | |||
| Misplaced Pages can be a lot of fun and allow editors to get in views that might be ignored - and remove some really awful stuff that has terrible sources. But you have to take your time and learn the rules or you can be blocked from editing at all. Patience and caution are a good idea. Meanwhile, I'll some good material I found about Nossel to the talk page of her article and add it to the article when I have a chance. '']''<big>🗽</big> 01:43, 1 May 2013 (UTC) | |||
