February 2018

Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Raymond Ventrone, 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. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 01:26, 16 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

February 2019

Thanks for contributing to the article Wesley Matthews. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the claims (see here for how to do inline referencing). If you need further help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia, or ask at the Teahouse, or just ask me. Thank you. —Bagumba (talk) 18:25, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

NBA deals

These are not official or updated until announced by the teams. Please do not add players like TJ McConnell or Jeremy Lamb to rosters until those deals are officially completed. Thanks. Rikster2 (talk) 13:04, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

July 2019

Hello, I'm Bagumba. Your recent edit to the page Justin Holiday appears to have added premature information about a reported sports transaction, so it has been removed for now. The transaction is based on anonymous sources and/or awaiting an official announcement. If you believe the transaction has been completed, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. —Bagumba (talk) 19:36, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

May 2021

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Brann Dailor, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Rob van vee 05:03, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced birth dates

Hi. I wanted to explain why I reverted a change you made to Sprague Grayden. In this edit, you added a birth date, but you didn't cite a reliable source. Wikipedia has strict rules on content in biographies of living persons because this can impact real peoples' lives. Please be aware the many sites on the internet purport to give information about celebrities, but few of them of reliable. Sites like the IMDb use user-generated content, and they should not be cited in biographical articles. Similarly, celebrity gossip websites should not be used because most of them don't have a history of fact checking or publishing corrections. Fan sites and blogs are self-published and have no editorial control. We also can't use primary documents, such as government birth databases, or genealogical websites (which are also typically user-generated, as above). This means that the number of available sources is quite slim, and we often have to either go without this information or wait until a source like Entertainment Weekly or the BBC publishes an interview that includes a birth date. If you're not sure whether a source is reliable, you can ask at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 08:58, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
