Hello, I'm Blaze Wolf. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Joel Osteen, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Daily Caller is completely unreliable and publishes false information. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 14:10, 27 January 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Asparagusus. 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 Mike Johnson (politician) seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. —asparagusus (interaction) ^sprouts! 15:37, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Ok, but Wilipedia should be written with formal definitions, not colloquially limited ones. Although prejudice, with its connotations of intolerance , implies a negative bias, the word can be used in positive constructions:

I, too, appreciate projects that treat a difficult subject with rigor, although I'll confess to harboring a bit of prejudice toward thing-biographies.
