Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Twitter Files. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:09, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Muboshgu,

Thank you for reaching out and bringing your concerns to my attention regarding the edits made to the Wikipedia page on the Twitter Files.

I understand your perspective and appreciate your commitment to upholding Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. My intention in adding information about FBI whistleblowers and their testimony was to ensure that the article presents a comprehensive and balanced view of the topic, particularly in light of recent developments.

The inclusion of information about FBI whistleblowers and their testimony before Congress is sourced from a document titled "FBI Whistleblower Testimony Highlights Government Abuse, Misallocation of Resources, and Retaliation," which provides valuable insights into the controversy surrounding the FBI's interactions with social media platforms.

I believe it is important for the public to have access to the full story, including perspectives that may challenge or contradict official statements. By providing this additional context, we can contribute to a more thorough understanding of the subject matter.

I am open to discussing the edits further and am willing to work collaboratively to ensure that the Wikipedia page accurately reflects the available information while adhering to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Please let me know if there are specific aspects of the edits that you believe require further discussion or clarification.

Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to engaging in constructive dialogue to improve the quality of the Wikipedia article.

Best regards,

I would like to highlight that the information I added to the article is sourced from two government sources: Judiciary.house.gov - Testimony Reveals FBI Employees Who Warned Social Media Companies About Hack and Judiciary.house.gov - FBI Whistleblower Testimony Highlights Government Abuse, Misallocation of Resources, and Retaliation. These documents provide detailed insights into the allegations made by FBI whistleblowers and offer valuable evidence to support the information included in the Wikipedia article.
