Hello, I'm Tridwoxi. Your recent edit(s) appear to have added incorrect information, so they have been removed for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. 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. ~ Tridwoxi (talk) (contribs) 11:23, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Please do not create, maintain or restore hoaxes on Wikipedia. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia. Continued disruption will be met with being blocked from editing, or other sanctions. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can contribute constructively. Thank you. ~ Tridwoxi (talk) (contribs) 11:30, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

I did not add any sort of hoax or false information. We are studying Lewis at Sawyer University (in Vasey) on our a module of out Modern History degree and this information was all found in Ian Brook's 2001 textbook 'American Strides in the Early 20th Century.' I consulted my lecturer, Becky Williams, before making any edits to see if the source was credible and she checked around the history department and all professors seemed to agree that this was a real source. The information I added was only added because I thought it was valuable and interesting, and if it seems the opposite to you I suggest you should contact Brook and his publishers and consult him yourself over this. I was only trying to help students like myself. Raymondocarling (talk) 11:40, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Lies

Many bad-faith editors have, in the past, created hoaxes on Wikipedia. Our policy requires that you cite your sources. That doesn't mean typing stuff in your edit summary. It means providing citations. Unless you can give us the title, author, and page of the book, then your "info" doesn't count. Chris Troutman (talk) 12:34, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

This is ridiculous. Why on earth would I add information if I did not think it to be true. The information I provided was all from historian and author Ian Brook who apparently is working in a college in Huddersfield, so if you do not believe this I suggest you track him and give him a call. I don't understand why the information I offered would even be considered untrue. What would be the point? It would just be a waste of my time. Raymondocarling (talk) 12:40, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

As I noted in my reply (diff), your edits seem unlikely. Furthermore, they are not verifiable. Our policy states All material in Wikipedia mainspace, including everything in articles, lists and captions, must be verifiable. All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation that directly supports the material. Any material that needs a source but does not have one may be removed. Please immediately remove contentious material about living people that is unsourced or poorly sourced. You have not provided enough information to prove your claims, therefore, they have been removed. ~ Tridwoxi (talk) (contribs) 12:53, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Raymondocarling, I'll answer your question with a question: Why do some people make up lies and expect us to believe them? Many people around the world appreciate the free and trustworthy information our volunteers provide. That some people make edits they think should just be believed without proof evinces a real disconnect from reality. Chris Troutman (talk) 13:05, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

Disconnect from reality? I am living in the real world more than you could ever. I have been through hell in the police force for 15 years. PC Raymond Carling at your service. But things got so tough I nearly died 7 times. I know how hard real life is. I now have got my life together and am studying a history degree at Sawyer Uni in Vasey. I wish to teach the next generation about inspirational individuals such as John L Lewis and Mr Gompers. I know how precious life is now and I would not waste my time on this planet writing falsities. You are evil for accusing me of such things. Raymondocarling (talk) 09:39, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
