Welcome!

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

• The five pillars of Wikipedia
• Contributing to Wikipedia
• How to edit a page
• Editing tutorial
• Picture tutorial
• How to write a great article
• Naming conventions
• Simplified Manual of Style

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

• Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
• Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
• Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
• No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
• If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
• Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
• Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Your edit to Valerie Jarrett was almost certainly a good one, but your explanation was couched in personal opinion/belief. Wikipedia operates on independently verifiable information from reliable sources, and those three sources don't meet reliable source criteria. That's why they're not acceptable, NOT because of their political orientation. Couching objection to sources in terms of political orientation is a flat-out violation the {{WP:NPOV|neutral point of view guideline]]. So, your edit holds up, but not for the reasons you put forth. Editing Wikipedia is productive and sometimes satisfying, but needs to follow the guidleines or trouble ensues. Welcome and good luck. Tapered (talk) 02:42, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
