The New 52

[edit]

Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for working to improve the site with your edit to The New 52, as we really appreciate your participation. However, the edit had to be reverted, because Wikipedia cannot accept uncited material or original research. This includes material lacking cited sources, material obtained through personal knowledge, or which constitutes the an analysis or interpretation by the editor that is not found in cited sources. Wikipedia requires that the material in its articles be be found in the cited sources that accompany the information. The sources you cited do not make any observations about DC's ability to maintain long-term sales, as this is your interpretation of the material in those sources. Editors cannot add their own observations or interpretations of material in sources, as this is called synthesis, which is a form of original research, which is prohibited on Wikipedia. In addition, there are appear to be a couple of errors in your statements. I have gone into greater detail on these points on the article's talk page, which I have started a discussion. Please read my message there, where I go into this in greater detail. If you disagree with my rationale, please let's discuss it there, which is required when editors disagree on content. If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks.

Hi. You removed content from Wikipedia with this edit of yours to The New 52, but without providing a rationale for this in an Edit Summary. When removing material, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page.
In addition, you marked each of these edits as a minor edit. On Wikipedia a minor edit is one that effects only superficial differences from the previous versions, such as typographical corrections, formatting and presentational changes, and rearrangements of text without modification of its content. A minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Your edits clearly do not fall under this description.
Lastly, please exhibit a bit more care with your writing and proofreading. Specifically:
  • Punctuation goes before citations, not after, as indicated by WP:PAIC.
  • You consistently fail to place a space before the parenthetical "(before the New 52)".
  • You omitted the period from the end of the final sentence.
  • You added two extra line breaks for not discernible reason to the end of the section.
Your refusal to respond to or acknowledge these messages, or communicate with other editors in the discussion I began on the article's talk page is making collaboration on the article difficult. Reverting controversial edits to an article without attempting to discuss the matter with other editors is called edit warring and is a blockable offense. Please respond.
