Please do not delete content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Affirmative action in the United States, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you. — Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs) 04:20, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
