Sourcing your edits
[edit]Hi Ted, and thanks for your contributions to Wikipedia. Unfortunately, I had to undo your edits to Timeline of transgender history, because you did not provide a reliable source. In one of your edits (to add Johann Burchard at 19:52 23 Feb.), you did provide a source, namely to an article at www.wikipink.org. Unfortunately, this is invalid as a source for referencing content at Wikipedia; Wikipink is not considered a Reliable source because it is self-published; since anyone can edit Wikipink and say whatever they want, it doesn't have the same validity and reliability that we would expect from a published book, journal article, or reliable website. (Neither does Wikipedia itself, which is why you can't use another Wikipedia article as a reliable source, either.)
Your edits don't appear in the article now, but they are not gone; you can still find them in the History of the page (click the History tab top right). Feel free to reinsert your content, along with citations to reliable sources. See also Help:Footnotes. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me. There is also the WP:Help desk, and the WP:Tea house, where you can ask questions. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 05:40, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
