June 2024[edit]
Hello, I'm Ternera. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Barbara Harris (bishop), 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. Ternera (talk) 21:30, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
Please do not add or significantly change content without citing verifiable and reliable sources, as you did with this edit to Philadelphia Eleven. Before making any potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Ternera (talk) 21:37, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
Please do not add unsourced or original content, as you did with this edit to Episcopal Diocese of Fond du Lac. Doing so violates Wikipedia's verifiability policy. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Ternera (talk) 21:38, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- I am sorry for this. I will be sure to add verifiable sources. Are the virtual binders not visible? If not, I will hold off and add the Episcopal News Service articles come out. I am a deputy in the House of Deputies at the Convention, adding these updates as they occur. I assure you, I am not trying to cause any issues with the decorum of Wikipedia. I will look to be more vigilant with the citations. Kruegerlw15 (talk) 21:44, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Well, no need to be sorry, but let's figure this out, one step at a time. First step: I just reverted you on William Porcher DuBose because you can't just remove information like that. The information was already problematic because it was unverified, but we can do better. So the place was deconsecrated and all that--let the article reflect that. Mention that fact, and insert a proper source for it. See WP:CITE on how to do that. Blanking it removes an unwanted association, but representing the history fairly is a much better solution.

- Ok, that makes sense. I'll cite that. Let me drop into that now. I'll be handling some other convention duties tonight, but I'll return to updating the article and placing proper citations in the articles. Kruegerlw15 (talk) 21:56, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Oh, and much thanks for being willing to guide and help me with this. Kruegerlw15 (talk) 22:01, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Sure thing. Let me know if I can help. But you need to do one more thing: you obviously have a conflict of interest, and that's fine, but you need to make that clear--easiest thing to do is to put a template on your user page. See WP:COIDEC. Good luck, Drmies (talk) 22:30, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Forgive me, I'm new to setting up a user page. How do I go about setting up a template on my user page. Secondly, what is the purpose of the user page? From what I read limited autobiography is ok. What else should be on the page? Kruegerlw15 (talk) 09:31, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- COIDEC has the code for the infobox you put on your user page. All you have to do is copy it and insert the name of the article/organization that you are allied with. That's what a user page is for, among other things--they should be things that are relevant to Wikipedia editing. Whether Nick Saban is relevant to my editing, well.
