[edit]Hello, Gaysteve, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your edits to the page L'Oréal have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may be removed if they have not yet been. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or other forms of media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. As well, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

L'Oréal
[edit]Hello, there is a reason why your edits keep getting removed. It's not OK to paste contents of supposed company policies. My suggestion to you is to try making smaller edits and include a reliable source with each addition that you make. A good referencing tutorial can be found here. Please contact me on my talk page if you have any questions. Thanks, Dawnseeker2000 05:21, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
i do have reliabhle sorces. i have received that copy of l'oreal's policy!. i have also found the 2 other pages that have received the policy. so therefore i have 3 sorces of the policy that L'Oreal themselves sent me.
- The WP policy regarding reliable sources involves using secondary sources. Items that are not from the subject itself. A news agency would be a good source. The contents of l'oreal's policy isn't something that should be copied word for word into the WP article. I'm going offline at the moment so I won't be around to reply until tomorrow.

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to L'Oréal appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe this important core policy. Thank you. Tgeairn (talk) 06:01, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
==reply== i'm sorry but you say non-neutral, yet Naturewatch posted their comments that make l'oreal look bad. my posts are to counteract & balance their article out. 13 november 2011
