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
Creation myth 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. Creation has no more "evidence" than any other myth on that page, also Myth doesn't mean what you think it does, read the COUNTLESS topics on the Talk page about the term Myth. —

Welcome!
Hello, Hewhocauses, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one of your contributions does not conform to Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View policy (NPOV). Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media.
There's a page about the
NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the
New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{
helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Where to ask a question or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! Dougweller ( talk) 17:24, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
Regarding your recent edit to Nebuchadnezzar II, please do not add fringe beliefs of minor religions that are not supported by any historical sources.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 10:58, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
You seem to believe that Nebuchadnezzar II exiled the Jews to Babylon in 607BC. This appears to be based on a doctrine of Jehovah's Witnesses that alleges that a 70-year period of exile ran from 607BC to 537BC. However, Jeremiah 25:12 states that "when seventy years have been fulfilled I shall call to account against the king of Babylon", and Daniel 5:26-31 identifies that judgement with the fall of Babylon to the Persians, in what JWs agree was 539BC. Therefore, the period of 70 years, regardless of any other significance one would like to attach to it, could not end any time after 539BC without contradicting this verse, and therefore could not start in 607BC. Please do not add contrary information to Wikipedia articles.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 11:49, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Nothing's How It Used To Be
A tag has been placed on Nothing's How It Used To Be requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a musical recording which does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, and where the artist's article has never existed, has been deleted or is eligible for deletion itself. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}} to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Please do not remove the tag again, you need to follow the instructions and add the hangon tag without removing the speedy tag. Dougweller ( talk) 14:15, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
- Dougweller is absolutely correct about that. However, i have removed the tag because the artist, Julian Barry, has an article on Wikipedia. It is always a good idea to link the article of an artist or creator when writing an article about an album or other work of art, if such an article exists. DES (talk) 16:19, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
Please note that Wikipedia does not, and will not, have articles on all "verifiable and official" record albums, nor on every other possible topic. In general, Wikipedia has articles only on notable topics. For albums, singers, and other music related topics, see the notability guide for music. It is helpful if an article can directly indicate at least the general significance and importance of its subject, this avoids editors thinking it is trivial and suggesting its deletion. it is also helpful if the citation guideline is followed in providing references to confirm facts, in accord with the verifiability policy.
