October 2018[edit]

Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Matt Jansen, 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. Jim1138 (talk) 08:37, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Notice of conflict of interest[edit]

COI per my talk page
Information icon Hello, Callumward15. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Matt Jansen, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 08:50, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Referencing[edit]

Wikipedia has a policy of wp:verifiability. Any significant content must wp:cite a wp:reliable source (RS). See help:referencing for beginners. Use of your own knowledge or someone else's verbal or written statement is not verifiable and is should not be added to Wikipedia. See wp:no original research for policy.

I would suggest you find a source such as BBC sport profile or Soccerbase on Matt Jansen#External links as a source. If those disagree with Jansen, Wikipedia goes by RS. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 08:50, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Also, don't remove citations without a good reason. i.e., they don't support the content or they are not RS. If you do remove one, please leave your reason on the wp:edit summary. Jim1138 (talk) 08:53, 10 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
