Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but we cannot accept original research. Original research also encompasses novel, unpublished syntheses of previously published material. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your information. Thank you. --aktsu ^(t / c) 00:33, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Agreed. I added by the sourced portion and agree to leave out the unsourced portion. Is this okay? Closetindex (talk) 00:45, 22 March 2009 (UTC)closetindex

Sure, I actually didn't intent to remove it but since I'm using rollback it was removed anyway. Btw, did you use the right source on the Jens Pulver article? I couldn't find anything about her entering the cage in it. Also, be mindful of or netural point of view-policy. Writing things like "In a touching personal moment" isn't really encyclopedic. Cheers, --aktsu ^(t / c) 00:56, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Agreed, but it makes for good drama :) I linked to Jens blog, which mentions the miscarriage, but still does not prove that she entered the ring. Perhaps I should re-edit it. Also, I added back some of quote about Royce and agree with you about original research... I guess it is just my own theory as to why he used steriods.

I hate to bring up every little thing, but as I'm guessing the miscarriage thing is sourced to the comment on Pulvers's website I should point out that such comments aren't considered reliable sources and are thus not acceptable. No worries though, because the broadcast itself is perfectly acceptable as a source for what he said (just not interpretations of what he said) so by replacing it with "WEC 34 broadcast" or similar it should be fine :) --aktsu ^(t / c) 01:13, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Fair. I agree about blogs not being good sources. Also, you removed a quote on the royce gracie page and I tried to put it back up. If it still looks shady, feel free to remove it Closetindex (talk) 01:17, 22 March 2009 (UTC)closetindex

It should be fine IMO.. I was the commentary on it that was the problem (original research etc). --aktsu ^(t / c) 01:28, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
