Welcome

[edit]

Hello, Mr. Shally-Jensen, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions, especially what you did for "Encyclopedia Americana." I hope you like this site and decide to stay.

I see that you have been an editor of The Encyclopedia Americana. That sounds like a fun job. Are you still working for them? The reason I ask is that because you are affiliated with them, we must remove any personal interpretation from "Encyclopedia Americana" in order to maintain neutrality. (See Wikipedia: Neutral Point of View.) For that reason, I am removing the statement that "the work lags behind in areas such as science, engineering, politics, media, and arts and literature." If this assessment has appeared in a third publication, then of course it can stay with a citation. Otherwise, your additions to article are very valuable and I enjoyed reading them.

Sincerely,
