Editing sourced content

@Qaayush529 Please do not edit a citation to make it say something not supported by the source. It is important to maintain text–source WP:INTEGRITY and Wikipedia:Verifiability. The citation from the source says: "The victory ultimately led to the 1699 Treaty of Karlowitz, which signalled the end of Ottoman dominance in Europe."[1] not the end of Ottoman threat in central Europe. The content in the article as been edited to reflect the source used. Please follow WP guidelines and discus on TP if you wish, thank you. Aeengath (talk) 13:43, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think I did provided the reasoning for the edit and the current underlying problem in that statement. Oh well anyways 103.81.215.214 (talk) 15:06, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You did and your reasoning made sense but articles on WP cannot contain original research and the material presented needs to be directly supported by sources. Aeengath (talk) 16:13, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
