Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding or significantly changing content without citing a reliable source, as you did with this edit to Citizens United, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Alan the Roving Ambassador (User:N5iln) (talk) 16:55, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did to Planned Parenthood, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 23:33, 4 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A belated welcome!

Hi Papaloquelites: I just saw your message on my talkpage and apparently no one ever gave you one of these welcome messages with links to our policies and procedures. The thing is, this is an encyclopedia, and therefore everything must be verifiable and presented neutrally; as you say, lots of things are true but never documented in a reliable source, but those things don't meet the threshhold for inclusion in an article, which cannot realistically be exhaustive and is based on what reliable sources have found notable enough to mention about the topic. (I've linked a couple of words to the basic policies, which you'll also find above under "five pillars".) If you can find a news article making the point about Planned Parenthood's fundraising methods that you wish to include, then the information can be incorporated (without addressing the reader of the encyclopedia as "you" or giving advice), but otherwise it doesn't suit our purpose here. This essay puts it well. Thanks for registering and contributing; I hope this material will make things like this clearer. Yngvadottir (talk) 04:08, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
