Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Misplaced Pages articles, as you did to Airliners.net. Doing so violates Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 00:10, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Re: Caveat Emptor

Re your message: I am not an Airliners.net member nor am I affiliated in any way with the website. I believe I have looked at the site twice a long time ago, but that is it. Your addition was removed not because of any bias towards the moderators of the forums, but because your additions were not in a neutral point of view, which is a core principal of Misplaced Pages. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 04:03, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to violate Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did to Airliners.net, you will be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. Wuhwuzdat (talk) 17:27, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Point of View vs Fact

Your edits to the Airliners.net article are suggestive of someone who has an axe to grind with Airliners.net. Because it prevents an overly negative viewpoint of the site, it breaks Misplaced Pages's Neutral Point of View policy. -- Hawaiian717 (talk) 06:21, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Airliners.net, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

1. editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
2. participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors; and
3. linking to the Misplaced Pages article or website of your organization in other articles (see Misplaced Pages:Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
