Hello, and welcome to Misplaced Pages. Everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages, but at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to Justin Beiber, did not appear to be constructive and has been automatically reverted (undone) by an automated computer program called ClueBot NG.

• ClueBot NG makes very few mistakes, but it does happen. If you believe the change you made should not have been considered as unconstructive, please read about it, report it here, remove this warning from your talk page, and then make the edit again.

A few things you did wrong on Objectivism (Ayn Rand)

1. Making controversial edits without discussion is frowned upon. Repeating them after they're reverted is even worse; see WP:BRD. You need to go to the talk page, discuss your ideas and get some consensus. In this case, you're better off visiting the talk page of Ayn Rand, which is where most of the discussion on this topic can be found.

1. Misplaced Pages is based on reliable sources, not the opinions of editors. If you read this, you'll see that we have an excellent source that directly states Rand's Objectivism is an amateur philosophy. This wins out over anything you might believe. Remember, Misplaced Pages is based on verifiability, not Truth.

1. It's pretty obvious that you've been editing under multiple IP's in California. That's also frowned upon because it creates the illusion of multiple individuals agreeing. Consolidate your identity by creating an account.

I'm not sure if I'm going to bother to roll back your changes, because there's a WP:3RR policy that could be used against me. If you're honest, you'll roll them back yourself. MilesMoney (talk) 15:06, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
