Please be aware that article talk pages are for discussion of improving the articles and aren't a forum to impart opinions about events. Your comments left on the Jonestown talk page really aren't constructive to the article. Any fact that is included in an article must be sourced with a reliable reference, and since the available references disagree on the total number of persons who died there, the editors were discussing how to handle that in the article. While I appreciate that you have a decided opinion on these deaths, it isn't helpful to the article. Also, when you add comments to a talk page, you are required to sign your posts by type four tildes such as (~~~~), which will give the relevant information to who you are. Removing auto-signatures supplied by bots when you have neglected to sign your post is inappropriate. Wildhartlivie ( talk) 06:13, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

As a member of
WikiProject Films, you are invited to take part in the
project's first questionnaire. It is intended to gauge your participation and views on the project. At the conclusion of the questionnaire, the project's
coordinators will use the gathered feedback to find new ways to improve the project and reach out to potential members. The results of the questionnaire will be published in next month's newsletter. If you know of any editors who have edited film articles in the past, please invite them to take part in the questionnaire. Please stop by and take a few minutes to answer the questions so that we can continue to improve our project. Happy editing!

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 username or IP address 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. --

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at
Talk:The Singing Nun, is considered
bad practice, even if you meant well. Take a look at the
welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --

I deleted a section that was titled with a derogatory racial slur from this your talk page. Please see WP:CIVIL. Further, that secton did not reference any article; it just expressed a political opinion. Please see WP:TALK which states: "This guideline in a nutshell: Talk pages are for discussion to improve the encyclopedia and should not be used to express personal opinions on a subject..."

Request reason:
I plead ignorance to the editorial rules of Wikipedia. I assumed "first amendment rights" were universal. I assure all that I will not take for granted the wiki freedom of expression.
Decline reason:
Wikipedia is not a government entity, so the first amendment does not apply here. I suggest that you re-read our policies, playing close attention to WP:BLP. WilliamH ( talk) 05:57, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
