Welcome!
Hello, 14.200.69.23, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:
- Getting Started
- Introduction to Misplaced Pages
- The five pillars of Misplaced Pages
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- How to create your first article
- Simplified Manual of Style
Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Misplaced Pages:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{help me}}
before the question. Again, welcome!
Use references. This is an encyclopedia, so remember to include references listing websites, newspapers, articles, books and other sources you have used to write or expand articles. New articles and statements added to existing articles may be deleted if unreferenced or referenced poorly. See: Misplaced Pages:Citing sources and Misplaced Pages:Verifiability for more information. -- Moxy (talk) 15:52, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
Advocacy
Advocacy is the use of Misplaced Pages to promote personal beliefs or agendas at the expense of Misplaced Pages's goals and core content policies, including verifiability and the neutral point of view. Despite the popularity of Misplaced Pages, it is not a soapbox to use for editors' activism, recruitment, promotion, advertising, announcements, or other forms of advocacy.
Misplaced Pages is first and foremost an encyclopedia which aims to create a breadth of high-quality, neutral, verifiable articles and to become a serious, respected reference work. Some editors come to Misplaced Pages with the goal of raising the visibility or credibility of a specific topic or viewpoint. When advocates of specific views prioritize their agenda over the project's goals or factions with different agendas battle to install their favored content, edit-warring and other disruptions ensue. Misplaced Pages operates through collaboration between editors to achieve the encyclopedia's goals. Differences of opinion about neutrality, reliability, notability, and other issues are properly resolved through civil discussion aimed at facilitating a consensus. -- Moxy (talk) 15:56, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
Not Advocacy
I am (clearly) not advocating anything, except the fact that the Misplaced Pages article has a right to exist. I am simply writing down the facts. Now tell me directly what problem you had with my edits, and stop this crap of copy-pasting wikipedia rules in my face.
First your removing the term "pejorative" and the source with no sources at all. Then your unlinking all the groups replacing them with the term "Native American Indian(paleo-Indian migration) ". Then you write a section that is not sourced and sounds like your guessing about this ..as in your contradicting yourself.
Would aslo be a good idea to read over WP:3RR no need to be blocked over not understanding the procedures here -- Moxy (talk) 16:08, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
- I suggest that you open a discussion at Talk:Eskimo about the changes you would like to see. Your edits were unsourced, removed sources and confusing. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 17:14, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
This Subject has already been covered in WP talk, read it yourself
Also, do not blot out the entirety of my work because there is a an error in my sourcing. Let me know where the error is and I'll fix it or delete the comment attached.
Sources were (obviously) removed due to irrelevance. "Eskimo" is not a perjorative term, hence any links relating to that should be removed. "Perjorative" and "slightly controversial" are not the same thing.

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Misplaced Pages articles, as you did to Eskimo. Doing so violates Misplaced Pages's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. -Uyvsdi (talk) 18:30, 27 December 2013 (UTC)Uyvsdi
Please do not try to change the facts
Hi, if you will read the Misplaced Pages talk page, you will see very clearly where everyone else there was basically in complete agreement, and you chose to simply hijack the page.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Eskimo. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware, Misplaced Pages's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
- 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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. -Uyvsdi (talk) 03:08, 2 February 2014 (UTC)Uvsdi
Please do not attack other editors, as you did on Eskimo. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. -Uyvsdi (talk) 03:09, 2 February 2014 (UTC)Uyvsdi
