First off Welcome to Wikipedia. If you encounter negative editors that seem to not help in any manner pls feel free to contact me for help. I am greatly disappointed in the welcome you have received and would like to take this time personally thank you for your additions. I see that the objections to your additions were not clear. Is it possible to get references for the first paragraph you added at Russian nobility. You may want to look at Wikipedia:WikiProject Russia were you will find editors that have the same interest and can help in a positive manner.Moxy (talk) 00:46, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
Hello, thanks for the much-more-welcoming welcome. For some background, I wrote this section as a final paper for my Russian History class at Oberlin College. The "Overview" section contains the Introduction and Conclusion paragraphs, which I wrote with reference to the material included in the body sections. Honestly, I could sympathize with the argument that those two paragraphs contain a sliver of my opinion, although they are conclusions based entirely off of the facts in the following sections. Perhaps I should delete the second paragraph in the intro since it is more inferential?
Thanks again. Zbluford (talk) 01:17, 16 March 2012 (UTC)
