Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

What being constructive means?

Hi Eddy, The goal of Wikipedia is to inform. This means to present all the aspects of an issue, if these are accurate, of course. Not letting them to be presented because they "are not constructive" is a pure subjective argument used for censorship. In this case what Ignatiev is saying is outrageous, but the public has the right to know this when looking for information about him. If Wikipedia follows an agenda and practice censorship, please let me know. Thanks for answering, Rozpierre — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rozpierre (talkcontribs) 16:46, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

This is an reasonable position. Best wishes! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rozpierre (talkcontribs) 17:08, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
