I will fight for factual accuracy even if it is unappreciated or gets me kicked out of here.
Factual accuracy is good, and will be appreciated but making personal remarks will get you kicked out. Also, try to distinguish between debating and working on articles. If you have an idea to improve an article, propose it in a humble way, rather than in an overbearing or offensive way. It's not what you say, it's how you say it.

- Ed, my remarks were utterly impersonal. Everyone should agree that anyone who intentionally misrepresents facts is being deceitful. And it is very difficult to distinguish between debating and working on articles because rigorous explanations are demanded for factual changes. If I came off as offensive, I apologize for that. It was not my intention. My intention was to improve the factual accuracy of the article. Thanks, JeffT 16:12, 16 February 2010 (EST)
- Facts are as facts do, JeffT. Talk to 100 scientists and you will get 100 different responses, all slightly different than the others. Same with linguists and translations. We are a U.S., conservative and Christian project. Editors accepting our POV are welcome, those who do not, are not so much. If you wish the same type of fact-obscuring encyclopedia as Wikipedia your efforts might be better accepted there. If you come here with the idea you are here to "save us" from ourselves, your mission has already failed. I urge you to open your mind to the truth...it will set you free! --ṬK/Admin/Talk 16:48, 16 February 2010 (EST)
- TK, if you could help me understand these problems, I would very much appreciate it. I really dont understand what is going on. The facts are: It is not a fact that Amy Bisbop murdered her brother. It is a fact that the article is about a particular type of murder. It is a fact that Amy Bishop is not young. Could you please help me? Thanks, JeffT 17:07, 16 February 2010 (EST)
