Thank you for your changes to the article [1]. The article is a Good Article, which means that the content has been reviewed by an editor to ensure that the article was built with fairly high quality. You added a large amount of content that did not include a reference to a reliable source. Good Articles are required to have reliable sources for all content, or they lose their Good Article status. Since I do not know where you got the content, I have removed it. You can return it only if you provide a solid reference using a citation template. I'm happy to help you with the citation template if you ask me on my talk page. I'm not a bully, just making sure that something I spent a lot of time on remains in pristine shape. You'll find me quite approachable if you just ask. Royal broil 13:03, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, congratulations for working with such a great driver! Everyone wishes they had such an honor. I have read what you insert in Tim's article. First of all, you said you can't provide a reliable source for the information because it's firsthand knowledge. Everything in Wikipedia has to be verifiable according to the Wikipedia:Verifiability policy. Policies written in stone and must be done this way. Second, I feel it's too far off-topic. Even if you provided a reliable source, I would feel that way. Articles should be short and sweet/crisp and clear, not cluttered with too much detail. You have a helluva story! How about sharing it at some well-known forum where it will be appreciated, instead of in Wikipedia where we can't use it?! I could get additional opinions from other Wikipedian's, but I'm certain that they'll say the same thing that I am about verification. Please don't reveal your real life identity, it won't help anything. Royal broil 04:43, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
