Welcome!
[edit]Hello, LiteraryCritic24, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions I hope you like the place and decide to stay.
Your addition of Springfield Township, Union County, New Jersey to the birthplace field of the infobox on the article about Jeff Ross has been reverted because you did not include a cited reference from a reliable source. You will also note that the difficulty in finding such a source was discussed on the article's talk page. As was discussed, "Springfield Township, Union County, New Jersey" was previously listed in the infobox prior to my attempts to expand and improve this article and I had personally chosen to leave it in good faith given there was a reference cited (albeit not a precise one), however a subsequent editor chose to remove it, which they were perfectly entitled to do given Wikipedia's policy regarding biographies of living persons. So at this point the onus is on the editor who wants to add this information to provide a reference. The reference should also make clear as to which Springfield, New Jersey is being referred, since this can refer to Springfield Township, Burlington County, New Jersey; Springfield Township, Union County, New Jersey; and can also refer to Springfield/Belmont, Newark, New Jersey.
If you are able to find a reliable source that clarifies his exact place of birth, please feel free to re-add this information to the article with a cited reference.
