Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The Five Pillars of Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

• 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 Wikipedia 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 Wikipedia Tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. 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 three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. Again, welcome! —Kf4bdy ^{talk contribs}

Request reason:

I have been blocked for entering uncited information. My information was cited, often statements taken directly from the authors own blog. The information posted, was relevant, cited and of value for the article. No opinion was posted, only quoted information. I have have waited months for the block issue to be addressed with no results. I have every desire to follow Wikipeidias process, but if no action is taken soon, I will be forced to simply make a new account and continue. As this is seen as a taboo, again, I would prefer this issue be reviewed and resolved. Thank you for your time

 EDIT: Odd, Wikipedia informed me I was.  As for keep it that way, I would certainly hope so.  I have opinions, but do not think Wikipedia is the place for them.  I only edit to add sourced info, that is relevant to a topic, or to fix spelling and grammar, and that usually after checking doing my utmost to confirm my use is correct.  Thank you for the response.

Decline reason:

You are currently not blocked. That being said, let's keep it that way. –MuZemike 23:53, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
