[edit]Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that in this edit to Islam in Canada, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. 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) 08:45, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Islam in Canada. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 08:53, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Your deletion here said it wasn't sourced, but there were seven or so references which you removed including a BBC one and this one: http://www.espncricinfo.com/women/engine/series/230646.html Jim1138 (talk) 00:51, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
Thats the funny thing about it, those sources were pulled out of nowhere. Nothing matched. Nothing was legitimate. The only legitimate sources were the ones I used to fix the mistake. But in the end - they stuck real sources with fake information. This is the reason people discredit wikipedia in the first place (I'd recheck everything if I were you). 03:13, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
