Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Cassiopeia talk 04:25, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Cassiopeia. I noticed that you made a change to an article, The Armidale School, 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. Cassiopeia talk 02:36, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is this what you need as "a citation"

Hi Richardtownley, All social media, subject official website, edu, gov and private company sites are considered not reliable and/or not independnet and can not be used for source. Sources such as from the newspapers or books can be used. Your source above is from gov and it is considered not reliable. Cassiopeia talk 04:25, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not so much that .gov sites aren't reliable (in certain circumstances, they are very reliable). However, the photo caption you added (which would be on the weak side for sources) doesn't mention Armidale at all. —C.Fred (talk) 04:29, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

{{U||C.Fred], Understand where you come from and agree in certain countries and certain circumstances they are reliable); however, respectfully in Wikipedia, all edu, gov are considered not reliable and/or independent as there is no fact-checking and accuracy out-site those sites themselves, and we all know many democratic countries, the governments, produce false/propaganda info). I am here just to inform editor to use independent, reliable source which is the best source for this project. Thank you and stay safe. Cassiopeia talk 04:40, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
