Welcome!
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Hello, I'm Diannaa. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Madagascar Plan without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry: I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, you can use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! -- Diannaa (talk) 23:42, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

[edit]The content you keep removing is well-sourced in the relevant section of the article. Please do not remove sourced content from a page without explanation. Where an issue has already been discussed on a talk page and consensus has been reached, please discuss at the talk page and seek consensus before removing content.

[edit] Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to blank out or remove portions of page content, templates, or other materials from Wikipedia, as you did at Marinus van der Lubbe, you may be blocked from editing. Thank you. Dougweller (talk) 09:48, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Please make sure to include an edit summary with every edit. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history.
The edit summary appears in:
- User contributions
- Recent changes
- Watchlists
- Revision differences
- IRC channels
- Related changes
- New pages list and
- Article editing history
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Dougweller (talk) 09:49, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
Disruptive editing? I removed edits that were unnecessary or contained bias. In fact, why don't I just delete the entire 'Cause of the Reichstag Fire 1933' section, because it has no citation whatsoever. Saying van der Lube "confessed again", that doesn't make sense, who to? He had already confessed to the Police, and who's to determine how it was controversial to have him executed? His act was controversial, not his fate. And on the Otto Wels page is it really necessary to say "looking directly at Hitler" and to say that his speech was "outspoken" when it clearly was not? You reverted ALL of my edits on those pages, even my simple changing of the word Nazi to NSDAP. In fact since that section on the van der Lube has no citation, I'm going to delete it.
