just a heads up to say that i deep-sixed your citation on Anti-Defamation League and the change to 'spy scandal' that it sourced. basically, both the site and the article looked to be little more than propaganda pieces with some pretty heavy-handed pov of their own. i did, in fact, go looking for a substitute citation and have found the selection to be slim pickings indeed -- it's pretty much all white supremist material -- so i left the section un-cited and with the original wording. since adl is such a controversial topic, citations that have a whiff of bias tend to colour the piece as i'm sure you know. -- frymaster 04:39, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
February 2007 edit
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you. RJASE1 Talk 05:01, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Sources on Ayaan Hirsi Ali edit
I'm afraid your sources weren't acceptable per Wikipedia guidelines - please read WP:RS#Self-published sources. RJASE1 Talk 05:12, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button 
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! RJASE1 Talk 05:15, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Please stop. Continuing to add unsourced or original content, as you did to Ayaan Hirsi Ali, is considered vandalism and may result in a block. RJASE1 Talk 05:22, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
- You should also be aware that continual reverts could lead to blocks, whether or not the material you are trying to insert is vandalism in the strict sense. Wikipedia is very concerned not to include poorly sourced, derogatory material on living persons, who can be harmed unfairly by such material. I suggest you bear this policy in mind.

Wikis Take Manhattan
|
WHAT Wikis Take Manhattan is a scavenger hunt and free content photography contest aimed at illustrating Wikipedia and StreetsWiki articles covering sites and street features in Manhattan and across the five boroughs of New York City. The event is based on last year's Wikipedia Takes Manhattan, and has evolved to include StreetsWiki this year as well.
LAST YEAR'S EVENT
- Wikipedia:Wikipedia Takes Manhattan/Spring 2008 (a description of the results, and the uploading party)
- Commons:Wikipedia Takes Manhattan/Gallery (our cool gallery)
WINNINGS? Prizes include a dinner for three with Wikipedia creator Jimmy Wales at Pure Food & Wine, gift certificates to Bicycle Habitiat and the LimeWire Store, and more!
WHEN The hunt will take place Saturday, September 27th from 1:00pm to 6:30pm, followed by prizes and celebration.
WHO All Wikipedians and non-Wikipedians are invited to participate in team of up to three (no special knowledge is required at all, just a digital camera and a love of the city). Bring a friend (or two)!
REGISTER The proper place to register your team is here. It's also perfectly possible to register on the day of when you get there, but it will be slightly easier for us if you register beforehand.
WHERE Participants can begin the hunt from either of two locations: one at Columbia University (at the sundial on college walk) and one at The Open Planning Project's West Village office. Everyone will end at The Open Planning Project:
- 349 W. 12th St. #3
- Between Greenwich & Washington Streets
- By the 14th St./8th Ave. ACE/L stop
