Please bear these points in mind while editing Misplaced Pages:
- Please respect others' copyrights; do not copy and paste the contents from webpages directly.
- Please use a neutral point of view when editing articles; this is possibly the most important Misplaced Pages policy.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add unreasonable contents into any articles, such as: copyrighted text, advertisement messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Adding such unreasonable information or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism, and will result in your account being blocked.
The Misplaced Pages Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Misplaced Pages. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date).

Welcome to Misplaced Pages, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Misplaced Pages is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to Rough Collie appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you. Collectonian (talk) 15:04, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you for your message. I have reinserted the image as it illustrates a point in the text.
- I am surprised that you feel that Rough Collies are good working dogs, because they have a reputation for being lazy, and in fact as far as I am aware are never used as working dogs in the UK! They were superceded long ago by Border Collies for sheep herding. Maybe things are different in the USA, in which case perhaps this distinction could be made.

- Then provide a source for it. You can't just claim "they are lazy" based on your personal assertion. I've also removed the image, again. The text barely discusses rough collie appearance at all, much less giving detailed discussion of the head shape, so no, it doesn't illustrate a point in the text.
