  Hello, I'm Love of Corey. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Killing of David Amess have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. Thanks. Love of Corey (talk) 18:55, 15 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Editors are expected to treat each other with respect and civility. On this encyclopedia project, editors assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not appear to do at Talk:Killing of David Amess. Here is Wikipedia's welcome page, and it is hoped that you will assume the good faith of other editors and continue to help us improve Wikipedia! Thank you very much!

If I had assumed bad faith I would have reverted your edit, as you did mine. This goes both ways: when someone writes something that is true, and properly cited, the onus is on yourself to argue the point. You invite debate (in a revert of an edit no less), but your position is not actually logically consistent. While I am on the fence about whether the nationality has undue weight for the lede, censoring it altogether from the article is harder to defend. One cannot infer motive from nationality, but the same can be equally said of sex or age. Either demographics are okay to be reported or they are not, anything else smacks of bad faith.
