Through Wikipedia (online) I am rewriting American history to include African-American perspectives which have been largely ignored by mainstream publishers and readers.

"Jim Crow" service on US railroads

[edit]

While I appreciate your efforts to add information about the treatment of black patrons of US railroads, please be sure to include citations to reliable sources when you add information. Doing so will help bolster the case for the information's inclusion and avoid edit wars in the articles you edit. Thanks. Slambo (Speak) 14:16, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please take some time to familiarize yourself with Wikipedia policies on neutral point of view, original research and verifiability. Data added to Wikipedia articles must be attributable to reliable sources. Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought or a soapbox; Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that aims to present verifiable and well-researched facts.
Your recent edits to the article Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters are not consistent with these established Wikipedia policies. Slambo (Speak) 10:39, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
