Edits should be verifiable[edit]

I noticed that you and another editor have been reverting each other. Please note that Wikipedia's standard for including material in an article is not "truth" or "factualness", which is very subjective, but verifiability based on reliable sources, which is much less so. To make sure information information you want remains in an article, you need to find a reliable source and properly cite it. Otherwise, Wikipedia policy is that any other editor is free to remove such unsupported material from an article. By the way, I have no interest one way or the other on this issue, I'm just pointing out the policies involved. Please click on the links in this comment and read the policies; they're fundamental to understanding how Wikipedia resolves disagreements between editors. Studerby 15:35, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
