Self-citing

In this edit, you appear to have cited your own research published in Proceedings of the Hampshire Field Club & Archeological Society, which appears to be a journal published by a local amateur history and archaeology club. I do not believe this would pass muster under Wikipedia's rules for reliable sources. Citing one's own research is not strictly forbidden, it is discouraged, especially if the citation is not especially reliable. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 18:47, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Hampshire Field Club and Archeological Society is a distinguished learned society established in 1885. You should have looked it up on the internet before dismissing it as a "local amateur history and archeological club". Andrewcliftonpayne (talk) 14:05, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
