My misunderstanding, I see your comments below.
Tara's article
[edit]You are blatantly disregarding protocol here. You've been asked three times now to go to the article's Talk page and engage in a discussion about why message boards are not considered reliable sources on Wikipedia. You don't seem to get it, so I'm assuming it's because you're new and don't understand how things are done here. I understand why you want this info in the article, but two of us disagree about the inclusion of stuff which comes from a message board (as opposed to a book or otherwise scholarly source), which means a discussion HAS to happen before it can go back in. Please make your thoughts known there, make a case for its inclusion rather than just repeatedly sticking it in (which can get you into trouble, now that you've done it multiple times after being told why it's a problem). If you're convincing enough and have other sources to back you up, it may end up in the article in some form. Participate in the process, please. It's how we do things here. Thank you.--TEHodson 06:56, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment.
