Colinrhar, good luck, and have fun. --Horologium (talk) 03:49, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that you've been here for quite a while, but never received a proper welcome, so I decided to rectify that.

Now, for the bad news...I undid your edit to the demographics section for Florida. We really need a citation to a reliable source for predictions such as that. Without knowing where those numbers come from, it is unclear whether they really mean anything, or if someone just pulled them out of a hat. If you have a citation, by all means feel free to restore the information, but please make sure to add the citation. Thanks. Horologium (talk) 03:49, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Vermont, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks, Jim1138 (talk) 04:19, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Quincy, Massachusetts. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Hertz1888 (talk) 14:55, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for persistent disruptive editing. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.
