Hello, I'm Hirolovesswords. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Michael F. Flaherty seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

I did not mark your addition as "slanderous" (that was another contributor). However, your addition violated Wikipedia's policy against political advocacy because it did not objectively report on Flaherty's stance from neutral point of view, as well as it's policy against original synthesis of published material, as you combined material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources. While your addition wasn't slanderous, it is not appropriate for Wikipedia either. --Hirolovesswords (talk) 22:13, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
