Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Regulated power supply, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Audio. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Information icon Hello, I'm WikiLinuz. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Uniform Resource Identifier, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. WikiLinuz (talk) 00:22, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:SKYBLUE. The addition was fully uncontroversial and can be verified by anyone with a functional computer immediately. Lapisgaming (talk) 11:24, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing that you added here is as obvious to everybody in the world as the fact that the sky is blue. Just because nobody is actively disputing it (e.g. making it controversial) does not negate WP:V, which is a core pillar of Wikipedia's values. Likewise, the presumption that readers can use a "functional computer" to go verify it for themselves does not change the fact that the burden is on you—the editor adding the content—to provide the sources where you got the information. That was WikiLinuz's point.
I appreciate that you tried to go ahead and add references, but the ones provided here are not actually sourcing anything. In the first one, you simply have an external link to the YouTube homepage masquerading as a reference. In others, you explain it yourself in a footnote style. In others, you link to URLs that are themselves examples of what you are trying to claim (e.g. hyphens). I would be careful not to do original research as you work to reference things. I know these are difficult requirements, and require some real leg work, but they are policy. It gets easier with time and experience. Happy editing! – voidxor 23:20, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOTBLUESKY—maybe read our policies on what accounts as reliabe sources, verifiability and how to cite sources; your recent edits to Uniform Resource Identifier has been reverted. WikiLinuz (talk) 23:39, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
