[edit] Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Talk:List of characters in Grand Theft Auto IV, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. --Enric Naval (talk) 03:28, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
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 Republic of Macedonia 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. --Enric Naval (talk) 03:28, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Please don't add unsourced information to article pages. Also, please don't delete or change comments from other users on the talk pages, like you did here, that considered uncivility to other editors. If you think that a certain information is wrong, then make a comment stating so. --Enric Naval (talk) 03:28, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- First of all, please notice that I wasn't the one who removed your edit, and I wasn't either the person protecting the page. I only made the warnings after I saw that your edits had been reverted, but no one had warned you about it
- Sorry, but I think that "rebel" is a more neutral adjective than "freedom fighter" when talking about a civil war and describing the side that rebelled against the government of their country. About the racism, I don't know how calling someone a "rebel" is racist. I don't think that describing someone as a rebel can be a racist adjective. Also, I have taken a look to , and it seems that "rebel" is a good descriptive adjective of them. They , so it's adequate and neutral to call them "rebels".
- You see, calling them "Freedom fighters" is making a series of assumptions about them being not free. For sourcing that claim, you need to find a reliable source that describes them a "freedom fighters", and add it somewhere Insurgency in Macedonia (2001), as "They have been called freedom fighters by xxxxxxx" and then add a reference that points to the source. Please notice that, since this is a controversial article, and since that would be a very controversial change, the addition will not stand unless you have a very good source, or several good sources.
- Also, I don't think the word "rebels" is going to be changed on the Republic of Macedonia article unless most sources talking about the conflict call them "freedom fighters".
- And, finally, please assume good faith when judging other editor's actions, and avoid doing personal attacks. Please try to discuss the edits instead of discussing about the editors. --Enric Naval (talk) 10:13, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
