Hello, I'm LizardJr8. An edit you recently made to Marc Slutsky seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, the sandbox is the best place to 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. LizardJr8 (talk) 03:37, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi LizardJr8. These were not test edits and it was not a mistake. I am related to him and was adding more personal information to his wikipedia page concerning his family specifically the birth of his daughter. Please allow me to make these edits, thanks!

Nowhat253 - Please see Wikipedia's policy on the prohibition of adding original research. In a nutshell, you cannot add content and "cite yourself" simply because you have a close relationship or experience with the article subject. Adding content citing one's relationship, experience, association, or even one's own website, work, or research constitutes original research, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. This is because it's impossible for other editors and readers to verify that content is accurate and true. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 04:00, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

so what would i need to do to be able to edit his wikipedia without it being struck down in terms of sources and source citing? Nowhat253 (talk) 08:30, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Marc Slutsky, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 04:01, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

but what about Baby Molly? Nowhat253 (talk) 20:33, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Marc Slutsky, you may be blocked from editing. Dirkbb (talk) 20:55, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
