On Truth
editWikipedia's goal is not to present the truth about each topic but to present what is thought about each topic, giving greatest weight to the most widely held opinions. I feel that you know that. On a controversial topic it is particularly important to be fairly rigid about the rules, which are designed to help resolve personal disagreements. Richard McCulloch is one of those uncomfortable subjects that are likely to be changed and changed again by editors who have different opinions. Best is to try to look at it from a Martian's viewpoint. X said this and Y said that. My view. :~) Aymatth2 (talk) 01:28, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Please be aware of Wikipedia's policy that biographical information about living persons must not include unsupported or inaccurate statements. Whenever you add possibly controversial statements about a living person to an article or any other Wikipedia page, as you did to Simon Sheppard (activist), you must include proper sources. If you don't know how to cite a source, you may want to read Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners for guidelines. Thank you. Robofish (talk) 14:04, 8 July 2011 (UTC)
