Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Angel, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

A summary of some guidelines you may find useful
edit- Always cite a source for any new information, using <ref>reference tags like this</ref>, containing the name of the source, the author, page number, publisher or web address (if applicable).
- "Truth" is not the criteria for inclusion, verifiability is.
- We do not publish original thought nor original research. We're not a blog, we're not here to promote any ideology.
- Reliable sources typically include: articles from magazines or newspapers (particularly scholarly journals), or books by recognized authors (basically, books by respected publishers). Online versions of these are usually accepted, provided they're held to the same standards. User generated sources (like Wikipedia) are to be avoided. Self-published sources should be avoided except for information by and about the subject that is not self-serving (for example, citing a company's website to establish something like year of establishment).
- Articles are to be written from a neutral point of view. Wikipedia is not concerned with facts or opinions, it just summarizes reliable sources. Real scholarship actually does not say what understanding of the world is "true," but only with what there is evidence for. In the case of religion, this means only reporting what has been written and not taking any stance on doctrine. Ian.thomson (talk) 19:48, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

editPlease do not add original research or novel syntheses of previously published material to our articles as you apparently did to Angel. Please cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. Tbhotch* ۩ ۞ 20:46, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did at Angel, you may be blocked from editing. HrafnTalkStalk(P) 21:05, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
This is your last warning; the next time you violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by inserting unpublished information or your personal analysis into an article, as you did at Angel, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Tbhotch* ۩ ۞ 21:14, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Angel. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.
In particular, the three-revert rule states that:
- Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Tbhotch* ۩ ۞ 21:14, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. Floquenbeam (talk) 21:24, 26 April 2011 (UTC)This is an encyclopedia article about angels. It isn't an essay about angels. No matter how many times you add your essay back in, it is going to be taken out. I'm sorry this frustrates you, but if you really insist on adding this in, you're guaranteed disappointment. Since you refuse to listen to people telling you this, to save everyone further frustration, I've indefinitely blocked this account. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:25, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
