| Unsourced claims are removed if they are ''challenged'', not if they are unsourced. Please do not remove unsourced claims like you did in ]. Thanks. ] (]) 09:44, 20 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :I would like a response to my query. I've asked you not to continue to remove unsourced claims without challenging them on talk, and you have ignored and blanked your talk page. If this behavior persists, I will notify an administrator. ] (]) 11:23, 22 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
| ::You're right, I didn't answer. But rather than go on a tirade with french words i'm going to say what is. I've been removing uncited claims for over a year, I have never had anyone say stop it because you must challenge it. Someone challenged it by adding the tag, so I give it time to be cited or I remove it. I've done this for over a year and I don't see why I should stop because of the first person to ask me to stop. That's what it is. <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 00:55, 23 June 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||
| :::I find your response most unsatisfactory. Why have you been removing unsourced claims for over a year? And what makes you think this type of editing behavior is supported? We do not remove unsourced claims merely because they are unsourced. They have to be challenged in some way. Assuming that the existence of the fact tag implies that someone else has already challenged the material is incorrect. If it was correct, we would have bots doing just that. And, we don't because the fact tag is often abused and in many cases, applied excessively and without proper explanation on the talk page. Some editors go so far as to add the fact tag to any material they aren't familiar with, which is not how we use it. Please do not continue removing unsourced material unless you have acknowledged a specific challenge to the content on the talk page, or you have made a good faith attempt to source the material yourself. ] (]) 02:42, 23 June 2008 (UTC) | |||

| ] Welcome to Misplaced Pages. The <span class="plainlinks"></span> you made to ] has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the ] for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative ]. You may also wish to read the ].

| :Sorry, I that was my oversight. Maybe your explanation could have been added to the edit summaries as well. Thanks for your contributions. ] (]) 05:38, 22 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
