[edit]
Hello, I'm Tgeorgescu. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Polygraph, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation 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. Thank you. Besides, books from Lulu are self-published, you should read WP:SOURCES for knowing what sources may be included in Wikipedia articles. Tgeorgescu (talk) 18:58, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
- Oh, yes, please do not modify quotes. Leave them as they are expressed in the cited source. We are not allowed to change what reliable sources say. Tgeorgescu (talk) 19:01, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

It looks as though this article on Patrick G. Fitzpatrick will be deleted. But, that need not stop you from continuing work on it. I have copied it into your sandbox. User:Internationalenquirer/sandbox/Patrick G. Fitzpatrick. One thing I have learned over time here at the Wikipedia is that I need to spend some time writing and documenting with sources before I put an article out as a new article. Even if the article is only to be a stub, it has to have at least one solid reference for verifiability. In addition you need to provide adequate context, so that other editors can find addition information. In this case the names of the programs that he started would help. Don't give up. It sounds as though you might have to use a fair number of Catholic periodicals to substantiate the notability of Patrick G. Fitzpatrick. These may only be available in hardcopy, but that's okay, so long as you provide a proper citation. If possible, find a Catholic library near you; librarians can be quite helpful. You might want to take a look at Wikipedia:Writing better articles, I assume that you have already read Wikipedia:Your first article. Good luck! --Bejnar (talk) 00:15, 8 January 2014 (UTC)
