May 2011[edit]
Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Daily Star (Lebanon), please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not include unsupported or inaccurate statements. Whenever you add possibly controversial statements about a living person to an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did to Alan Dershowitz, you must include proper sources. If you don't know how to cite a source, you may want to read Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners for guidelines. Thank you. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 15:00, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you concernedvancouverite. I was a student at Harvard and heard Dershowitz' comments first hand; as for the Daily Star, there are no sources to confirm the addition of a columnist to a newspaper. Rather, the recent writings of that author on the newspaper's website should be sufficient, should they not? In any event, thank you for your input. If it is allowed under Wikipedia policy, I am happy to delete any of the new biographies that do not meet Wikipedia standards. I am a newbie here.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Smallcoffee (talk • contribs)
- Hearing the comments first hand without them being covered in a reliable source would be called original research, which we do not add to encyclopedia articles on Wikipedia. Similarly unless the fact that a columnist was added to an organization (be it an online news source or a newspaper) was reported in a reliable source to establish the notability of such an addition, it would not normally be included in an article on Wikipedia. Once again, welcome to Wikipedia. We need enthusiastic editors such as yourself, and I trust once you learn the norms you can continue to make useful contributions.

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button 
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 16:17, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
Thank you again. Since the original phrase I replaced in Derschowitz was not cited, I figured a first hand account was more accurate. I will sign my articles from here on out. --Smallcoffee (talk) 17:14, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
