Hello, I'm Severestorm28. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, University of the People, 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. Severestorm28 00:18, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

- Alright, if you would like to include that reference, please insert it with the added text. Severestorm28 00:29, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

- No I don't. Do you? MythicalTom (talk) 16:15, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- Please do not play the tit for tat game, I came here to ask the same question as so far all you have done is tried to add this one bit of content to one article. So it was reasonable to ask why you came here to add this (see wp:spa). Slatersteven (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

- True, but it does not mean we cant ask a user who is only showing interest in adding one course to a universities page if they have a COI. This will be my last word here, I suggest you have less of a wp:battleground mentality and accept wp:consensus. Slatersteven (talk) 16:44, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
