Not disputing your content...[edit]

...only you method. Now that you have an account, do all editing while logged in. When removing referenced text, it must be replaced by referenced text. See Help:Referencing for beginners. I've found it useful to create refs in my own sandbox before copying into the article. There is nothing wrong with doing a massive revision of an existing article, but I recommend section at a time, with a clear explanation in the Edit summary. Also helps to create a new section at the Talk page of the article, explaining intent. What you personally know to be true has no value unless reliable source references are provided. Also, no original research, and citing your own journal publications or books is considered bad form. David notMD (talk) 22:18, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

From looking at your other edits, to other articles, at no point have you provided references. I have not reverted those, but other editors might. It is imperative that you revisit all of your article edits, to add references. And I suggest you read Wikipedia:Expert editors to get an understanding of Wikipedia's position.

Your deleted content is not lost. Clicking on View history and then prev (left menu) shows your content, which can by copy/pasted to your Sandbox to work on, add refs, etc., then moved to an article. David notMD (talk) 15:08, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

OK it looks like I will have to learn more about Wiki editing before I edit more. The rules you mention all seem reasonable. I will have to find out about "sandbox". ThanksGeothermal Geoscience (talk) 17:09, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is a general sandbox for practice, blanked frequently, but what I meant is your own Sandbox (top right menu). Many editors develop content there, then paste into articles, or even copy an article section into their Sandbox, amend it, then paste back. It is not a private space, as other editors can look at your contributions, and see what you are adding or deleting. Mine is at User:David notMD/sandbox. A click on View history will show a chronological list of years of additions and deletions of content as I worked on articles, especially raising articles to Good Article status. Clicking on a date shows what my Sandbox looked like on that date (same applies to View history for articles). David notMD (talk) 21:23, 3 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
