Please stop. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did to Paul Wei, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- Joren (talk) 02:52, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

If you are trying to make a point about the article needing citations, please note that disrupting Wikipedia to make a point is against the rules. It is better to discuss your concerns on the article's talk page, here: Talk:Paul Wei. Thank you,

Re:

Thanks for your message on my talk page. If you add your reply here, I will be able to see it since I have added your discussion page to my watchlist. I share your concern about the articles being story-like; that's why I tagged them. However, I have to point out that some of your recent edits are also unsubstantiated and you haven't added any sources. [1] the genital herpes claim, [2] (arguing that Christian groups aren't prevented from doing their work), [3], adding the word "convicted" - all of these things need sources. As a general rule, when you see an article that has issues, it doesn't help to add your own speculation; it's better just to tag it with a {{unreferenced}}, {{cn}}, etc. and just walk away instead of adding your own POV/unsourced research.

On the other hand, if you do have sources, then you are certainly free to add claims and cite them using a ref tag, like this .

By the way, I have to ask (sorry), but why have you chosen the user name PaulWei? It comes across as sounding like you have a vested interest in edits concerning Paul Wei, and may be against Wikipedia's username policy if that's the case. Maybe that isn't the case, but if you want to know if other people are TJC members or not, you also need to share your point of view/what your vested interests are. (In case you're wondering, I don't know anything about the "True Jesus Church" - right now, my role is limited to trying to prevent the articles from becoming a forum for edit warring.) Thank you,

Your edit

Hi,

Why are you trying to define the TJC as "indigenous Chinese Christianity"? Such attempts are misleading and may offend TJC members from non-Chinese backgrounds.

Look at the article on Catholic church. Nowhere in the article does it state that the Catholic church is a 'form of indigenous Roman Christianity established in Rome, Italy in AD 50'.

Neither does the Eastern Orthodox church ever mention that it is 'a form of indigenous Greek Chrisitianity established in Byzantine Constantinople in AD 324'.

Nor does the Church of the East ever mention that it is 'a form of indigenous Assyrian Christianity established in Nisibis in AD 486'.

All those churches have members from all over the world, and the fact that it originated from a certain country does not mean that it is to have an ethnic nationality label attached to it. --Phillip J (talk) 05:54, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
