Welcome![edit]

Hello, CarsonKlingman, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Brianda and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

MKUltra, medical topic[edit]

Hi @CarsonKlingman. I noticed that you have selected the MKUltra article to work on. Since this is a human health-related topic, I wanted to let you know that topics related to human health have more stringent sourcing requirements than most articles on Wikipedia. Please take the Editing health and psychology topics training module and check out the sourcing guidelines. Brianda (Wiki Ed) (talk) 23:42, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@CarsonKlingman. This edit was reverted because text was sourced to this article, which contradicts information already contained in the article about Bulger, makes WP:REDFLAG claims which are not supported by existing sources, and is written in a lurid, WP:SENSATIONAL style rather than the preferred encyclopedic style. And "babel.ua"- an English translation from a Ukranian article - is not ideal as a source for the material in question. You also cited text to a WikiMedia Commons file, not appropriate per WP:PRIMARY and WP:NOTSOURCE. If you have questions about editorial policies or simply need help editing Wikipedia, ask at WP:TEA. - LuckyLouie (talk) 20:33, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@CarsonKlingman. While some of your edits have been constructive, you should know that Wikipedia isn't the place for WP:ADVOCACY. Edits like this appear to be personal WP:SOAPBOXing. Wikipedia editors can only summarize the opinions and analysis specifically made by reliable sources. It shouldn't be hard to find reliable published sources who can be properly attributed regarding the impact of the CIA's programs discussed in the article. Please familiarize yourself with WP:OR and WP:SYNTH, thanks. - LuckyLouie (talk) 20:00, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
