Consumer confidence
editHi, yesterday I added Israel to the list of countries that has a consumer confidence Index. why did you remove my contribution?
- Because your user name suggests that you have a conflict of interest, in that you have some close connection with the organisation involved. You will have noticed by now that I have stopped reverting, however.
- I strongly recommend that you take some time to familiarise yourself with the policies and guidelines for editing Wikipedia. For example, WP:USERNAME and WP:POLICY. One other thing: when posting to talk pages it is usual to add 4 tildes (~~~~) at the end, so that other readers know who made the posting.
