Claims of a dynasty

User Zakaria1978, Please provide here why you think your new information should be placed in this article. You might be right but you should provide sources that can prove the claim. As for now you do not have sources but rather place a source and say: "it's is in here" without detailing anything further. Casperti (talk) 21:14, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Casperti, I noticed that you removed sourced information from the article that was easily verifiable; this behaviour has been carried into other articles too, it seems. Might I know your reason for doing this? User:Zakaria1978, your contributions are appreciated here on Wikipedia, but I would advise you to use a citation template when adding information to the article in the future; I would also recommend using the "quote" parameter in the reference, as I have done. This makes it difficult for individuals who wish to remove well-referenced information from an article, because with the quote parameter, the information is verifiable. As such, I have added additional references to the article in this format to buttress the content you added. I hope this helps. With regards, Anupam^Talk 18:08, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
