In a recent edit to the page Democratic Party presidential primaries, 2016 you deleted relevant historic information regarding manipulation of public opinion by mainstream media. All claims were fully cited and revised. Due to the nature of your edit, dismissing it as a "conspiracy theory" without regarding the overwhelming citations/proof, the revision has been reinstated to the article. Wikipedia's purpose is to educate the public now and for generations to come. This isn't the only time Wikipedia has published media bias as we have it in the article Bank War where it is explained that Thew New York Times dismissed the alleged plot to overthrow president Franklin D. Roosevelt as a "gigantic hoax".

I did no such thing. Check the record. The edit that I made was one correcting the language speaking about Bill Clinton's entering polling stations and the afterward reaction. The language describing the reaction of "her opponent's supporters" as seeking to "mire" her victory was biased and unsubstantiated from the citations. So I have no idea what you are talking about when you speak about "public opinion manipulation" or "mainstream media". Jasonli42 (talk) 06:23, 6 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

  In a recent edit to the page List of historical unrecognized states, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. Yopie (talk) 17:17, 21 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I was unintentionally a bit too brusque in my message. Please accept my apology. Dawnseeker2000 01:59, 29 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
